So then was it coaching? How does an undoubtedly less talented team beat an opponent with far more talent? You seem to think its just their "will to win". Well then why has bama lacked this will to win on 10 separate occasions in just six years?
You act like the teams Bama lost to had no talent themselves. Ole Miss, Ohio State, 2013 Auburn, Manziel's A&M, 2011 LSU.......those teams were pretty fricking loaded too and Bama is their SuperBowl....also averaging a loss a year is pretty good given the increasing parity in the SEC and who else has had this level of success? Additionally, we sign a 5* on paper but you really don't know how they are going to work out....Saban is the best in business but not infallible.

No. I act as if Bama lost to teams who had LESS talent than themselves. Which is true. Especially if you believe these recruiting ranking graphics.

It's not just "pretty good", its great. I'm just discussing the topic because you have two separate claims by Bama fans that can't both be true.
On the one hand, there is bragging about the recruiting domination and the gigantic talent gap... evidenced by this post. But if that were true, then there would be no explanation for losing 1.7 games per season other than that your team got out-coached. But when someone brings that up, suddenly the argument switches back from the gigantic talent gap to, "well all those other teams had just as much talent."
It can't be both.
