Saban has spread QBs figured out (especially the dual threat ones). Nick Marshall, Bo Wallace, Johnny Manziel, Clint Trickett. Owned!

The common denominator between Marshall and Manziel is giant, freak WRs that just straight up beat our DBs.

Bo had a couple of good drives against us, but our defense is not what lost us that game.

Trickett and that offense scored a grand total of 1 TD against us, great example.

Now, I see how you failed to mention all of the spread offenses that Saban has stopped while he has been at Bama.

And the best part is, Mariota is way worse than all of those guys.


Mariota is good, no doubt, but he is far from invincible, and definitely can be stopped.

On a more serious note, Saban would obliterate FSU's offense. A more traditional scheme and a retard at QB (sounds a lot like 2011 LSU amirite!?)


lol, no. You are seriously comparing Jordan Jefferson to a Heisman winning QB? Are you retarded? FSU knows how to win, and they have done nothing but that for two years straight.

quote:

Bama's dominant line play and Saban's exotic blitzes would stuff the run game and bait Mariota into 4 picks.


fify

And unlike 2011 LSU, FSU's defense isn't even particularly good.


I would take FSU's defense over Oregon's without their best player.

1) In 2 games, receivers not named Evans had about 400 receiving yards against Bama. That's not a 1 trick pony. As for Auburn, I don't think 6'2 210=giant freaks. And Oregon has some decent receivers too.
2) I named the good spread offenses since Oregon is a good spread O. Anyway, my only point, and I stand by it, is that Saban has had much more success defending traditional offenses than HUNH offenses.

Sure, but he'd be the best QB facing Bama since Manziel and he's playing at an insane level right now. Don't know why you'd rather face him than Winston. Mediocre ACC D coordinators have adjusted to Winston this year and his stats have plummeted. His yards/attempt is down about 2 yards, he's thrown 17 interceptions, and his decision making is frequently terrible.

It was a joke. Do I really have to explain that to you?

Easy to "know how to win" when you're facing junk teams every week. They barely beat Boston College, Florida, Georgia Tech, Oklahoma State, and more. I mean really? You have to get a last minute FG to beat Boston freaking College at home!?

They're 2012 Notre Dame all over again.
