The coaches didn't drop balls in the end zone and miss two 44-yard field goals. The coaches didn't follow the read inside instead of following the QB. This loss was on everyone. Saban's biggest mistake was going for it on 4th and inches from the 12 instead of just taking the chip shot field goal.

Don't forget the 33 yarder.
You can't even blame Cade Foster without blaming Saban. The fact that our FG kicking sucks is directly because of the fact that it is one facet of the game that has not had sufficient attention to it. People have wondered what it is that Bobby Williams does. I don't get into blaming assistants or coordinators. If our FG team right now is a cluster frick, it's one person's fault and one person's only, and it's his responsibility to fix it. If that means firing...or at least kicking upstairs...a loyal, long time assistant who has been with you at three other jobs, so be it. Fix it.

That is true, but players dropping balls is different than a coach making the conscious decision to try and kick a 57 yard game winner with a guy that has kicked 2 fgs in his career, while putting a bunch of 275+ big boys out there to defend a possible return by a speedster CB. It was just totally botched. But Saban is human, he makes mistakes. It happens. Just calling it like I see it.
