I'd argue Saban was never in a position where he had no QB. Certainly nothing like LSU faced this season. 2004 featured a 5th year QB in Marcus Randall and 2 talented RS freshman (who would go on to play in the NFL.) Sure, Randall had little experience, but like Flynn had been in the system forever. And I'd argue that Russell and Flynn as raw backups were much better than Lee and Jefferson at this point.
I agree with this, but he will win with defense.
It'll be old school football like it was this season. Run, run, pass, punt, and play defense.

Saban-ball, similar to Tressel ball but more effective against elite teams.

I agree to an extent, but Bama scored 31.2 points per game. Even with an ok defense you can win 9-10 scoring that much.
