It’s a bend don’t break, force turnovers, defense.
It works but after 17 years of Saban just shutting everything down it’s still taking some getting used to for me

I mean we basically shut LSU down. We have played better each week defensively. Our run defense is improving drastically.

You're forgetting the Pete Golding era.
Our defense under Saban fell off significantly once we hired Pete.
We gave up 52 points to Tennessee in 2022.

Defense played very well and basically won that game for us

Bama hasn’t shut everything down since 2017. Golding rarely shut any team down.

Defense is playing great. Whole point is to keep the other team off the scoreboard, and we are proving to be very adept at that so far.

Last night was a weird night, we had Keenan bump tackle someone for an 8 yard gain. Then we casue a fumble and they also get a 8 yard gain out of it.
Then conversely they had 2 of the weirdest run into sacks I've ever seen.

I was not on the Wommack wagon entering the season but he's won me over, but we need to be honest about that stat - the game now has fewer possessions because of clock rules and therefore scoring is artificially down because of that. The number of plays and drives is down from what it was throughout the Saban era.

Wommack's Defense has carried the team of late. Glad to see improvement...hope it continues. We'll be tough if we're ever firing on all cylinders on both sides of the ball.
