Hopefully realize they need to step their game up.

"That sweep was so close to working. We should have ran it again later on."

An accurate QB who will take the easy completion when the DB is playing with a big cushion is pretty much why IU has been moving the ball. Taking the free money needs to be a part of an offense.

What they realize is we're actually one of the best teams in the country and only need minor changes.

We played Indiana equal to this Miami team. The difference being our QB not diving on that 3rd down and then the horrendous 4th down play when we were down 0-3. Then our QB fumbling when we were driving to score at the end of the 2nd quarter down 0-10.

They are realizing that they had a terrible Oline and average at best Dline

I seriously doubt Deboer comprehends he needs to step up in any area. He believes he is right on track.

I don't know what they're thinking but Indiana looks like a vintage Saban team.

Only winning by 10, other team driving past mid field, but it feels like you are winning by 20.

Boz and CodeName mentioned in the thread that the staff was reading the Bama board while watching the game. The specifically said: “Damn, BFANLC likes big wieners.”

Don’t question the insiders, son.

This is a football game. Our coaches aren't watching. Tonight is coaching staff movie night at the DeBoers' house. They're watching Steel Magnolias and having a cry and hug session afterwards and talking about managing their feelings.

Nothing like grown men crying about “feelings” and “toughness” while being emotionally compromised by a football team.

That our qb would have fumbled the ball on the hit Mendoza took on his 4th and 5 touchdown run. That’s why we never ran a qb draw I guess.

That we had no RB that hit the holes with violent intentions like we saw tonight.

Of course, we didn't have many holes to hit either.

Based on no changes, I assume they watched it and thought, yeah we are good with our current coaches at:
RB
OL
SpTeams
DL

I watched and had a different opinion. Now if only DeBoer would call me back.

Without a doubt, he would have fumbled like he did multiple times throughout the year.

Hopefully he can clean that up since he will be an NFL starter at some point next season. LMAO...yeah right.

It's been a while since anyone at Bama hit the hole as hard as those Indian rb's were last night
