Kiffin is calling offense exactly like Saban wants. Pruitt is calling defense exactly like Saban wants. Same with Kirby. I know we like to bitch but that's the reality.
Point is, I think Saban is changing and I'm glad for it. I like a more aggressive defense. This contain thing gives the QB too much time and we've been burned. I think he's said to hell with it unleash the hounds.
Reminds me of Stallings a bit. To paraphrase him: "If you can't get to him (the qb) with 4 then rush 5. If you can't get to him with 5, send 6." And so on.
Though it's nice to be able to get to him with 4. :)

I agree Pruitt attacks way more than Kirby , all the exotic blitzes we heard about the last few years we are getting to see under Pruitt .

I don't think this is accurate. I think Kiffin has earned Saban's trust to gameplan and Saban gives him some leeway until things start going bad. Then Saban lets Kiffin know what he wants called. It looks to me like as long as things are going good, Saban mostly stays out of the offense.
