Look guys, If someone told you before the game started that Michigan would score only 20 points who here is going to say they wouldn't take that in a heartbeat, and feel certain that Bama would win the game ?
Speak now. I want to know who thinks the defense shite the bed giving up 20 points in a playoff game.
It was the offense. If you cant score over 20 in reg then you deserve to go home.
Washington nearly scored 40 points on that Texas D and that was after some turnovers.
Alabama would need 8 quarters of football to score 40 points on Texas.

They didn't shite the bed the entire game, but when the game was on the line (and we were up by 7) they didn't get the job done.
That's undeniable.

In modern college football, if the opposing team has 13 points with under two minutes to play, that game should be a runaway blowout in your favor.

You quoted me out of context; I didn’t say that the offense wasn’t at fault in this game, I said that it wasn’t the offense’s fault if the defense was gassed. We had the ball for more plays and almost 5 more minutes than Michigan; if the defense was gassed (I don’t believe they were), that’s not on the offense…
The offense didn’t have a good game and deserves a lot of the blame; the OL was porous, Milroe was off, the WRs didn’t have a good night, and our center struggled again…a long list. The defense played great in the second half, up until in Michigan’s last possession…but they’ll be remembered for giving up the tying drive late in the game…and then letting Blake Corum run thru them in OT in two straight plays…
