Not to kick the trailer park or anything...BUT

quote:

Think back to the Rose Bowl College Football Playoff Semifinal. You’ll remember that the last play of Nick Saban’s coaching career was a bad snap on 4th and goal.

Here’s a visual reminder. What a terrible way for a legend like Nick Saban to go out.

As Adam Breneman said, if it’s a good snap then the play is going out to the running back on a swing route, and Alabama might have scored. Think of how many things would be different in both college football and the NFL.

A poor shotgun snap was not a rarity for Seth McLaughlin, who served as the Crimson Tide’s center last year. It was happening multiple times a game, and the athleticism of quarterback Jalen Milroe saved them from disaster plenty of times.

McLaughlin decided to leave Alabama after last season, presumably because he would’ve been harassed by his classmates because he couldn’t snap the football accurately. Now, he’s a member of the Ohio State Buckeyes as they look to return to the College Football Playoff.

Buckeye fans are understandably anxious about McLaughlin’s snap problems from last year. Head Coach Ryan Day spoke about the snap issues, and completely threw Jalen Milroe under the bus.

The snap wasn’t perfect. That’s a fact. Monroe also panicked. Also a fact.

Same thing we all heard about Seth in practice as well. Look, his case of the yipps won't appear against Princeton or Rutgers, maybe not until Penn State or Michigan.... but they will return.


Then, I'd like to be a member of the media.

I’m sure he’d take 1000 Rose bowl questions if it meant he didn’t have to talk about the Cotton Bowl.

Rat Face Day is a fricking idiot

So the wrong cadence means snap it into the grass? What a moron, wrong cadence would be early snap

Does Day even know football?

I played center as a kid and this seems pretty dumb to me.

I don't even know what he means by cadence. If your snaps have to be predictable or something, good luck with that crap. I know we were just kids, but the entire point for us was to not have a predictable cadence.

Was Jalen chanting voodoo curses forcing the bad snaps or something?

Over 30% of Ryan McLaughlins snaps were in the dirt against Michigan. I don’t wish him wrong. But he is where he should be. Far away from Tuscaloosa.

Bama QB Jalen Milroe


IDK if I would call him a QB. He is a guy/RB/TE who lines up where a quarterback would be.

I don’t know who’s at fault, but I love seeing all of these experts on Alabama football. We appreciate your interest in our program

What's his excuse for the auburn snap that moved us from 2nd and goal from the 8, to 3rd and goal from the 26

His snaps were awful the entire season. The fact they never figured it out is at least partially on him.

I'm pleased to hear the guy has found the right program; his coach is happy with him and he's excelling at his position.

Cadence might cause an early snap but it doesn't cause a wild snap.

Ryan day didn't do his homework.

Seth did the same thing with Bryce was calling the plays as well.

Do they both have cadence issues?

Uh no.

He was running up the middle....He lost what? .A second? Dude didn't read shite.

Only analysts and fans who saw that option on replay say this for what they would do and assume Milroe would too. Snap wasn't that bad....got it cleanly, could've surved the field but just ran straight ahead and got but-tackled by his right tackle.

All that matters is he played like a hack in the Rose Bowl and sent Saban out a loser.

Couldn’t care less about him at Ohio State. He did what we needed him to at Bama, and that’s choke.

Don't see how this is "throwing under the bus". Day here doesn't mention by name "Milroe", mentions as cadence. That's just a guess by Day anyways. Seems you're looking for something that's not there.
