To this day I think this is by far the dumbest of the consistent approaches we have (and we don't have many dumb ones).

I do not understand it at all. The risk-reward was so out of balance, it made no sense.


Just another example of Saban not being a great game day coach. It's one of his few flaws.

But this isn't even really a "gameday coaching" thing IMHO. It's scouted, planned and decided far in advance of the game. Those are things we are usually pretty good at.

Obviously they just have a different philosophy, but I sure as hell don't understand it. The only way 99.9% of teams were going to have a chance to score was if they gained yards on special teams or turnovers, and we gave them shots on special teams for no reason.
