4th down call by Alabama? If we fail we give them the ball in great field postion with plenty of time on the clock.

Huge Balls in my opinion!

I dunno, seemed like the logical call to me when you just need a few inches and our line hadn't been able to get good pushback all game.

The champion takes the win, they don't try to hold it.

I remember Shula punting the ball in that situation so many times. Then we had to watch the other team drive down the field and win the game.

Instead of playing not to lose then I loved Saban playing to win the game right there.

Not ballsy at all. It was just the best move. Arkys offense can move the ball in a hurry. Don't want them to get the ball ANYWHERE on the field.

It was 4th and inches, not really that ballsy.

I think it was the right call but if we didn't make it the shite would have hit the fan.

Would be ballsy if you didn't have #22. The guy is a stud.

McElroy got the carry

as he should've. UGA ran that twice in a row against us after once got nullified by a timeout. We didn't come close to stuffing it either time. we didn't today, either.

It was the right call. Your O line was good for at least a 1-2 yard push on virtually every running play.

This. I was hoping he would decide to punt to give the Offense a couple shots for the endzone.

I think it was the right call (obviously, now) because it put the pressure on Arkansas. Instead of punting and putting the pressure on our D.

That being said, 4th and inches is never a gimmie. It just takes, a mishandled snap to ruin it.
