Easier said than done. It's been gone since the 2016 defense left (and yea I realize we won a title since then).


I kept waiting for someone....anyone....to make a Reuben type hit that would spark some energy from our side. Nothing.

That's why I'm disappointed in Saban today. I know a coach needs to remain calm but I didn't see any passion from him last night.

No Reuben type players have emerged. We have a lot of talented guys but they aren't to the Reuben level yet.

Here’s what I don’t understand. Our game plan wasn’t that bad; we were moving the football almost at will. But we’d get inside the red zone and try to get too cute and run something exotic that wouldn’t work.

On defense, we had no answers and we seemed afraid to try anything. Any corner blitzes? Any jailbreak blitzes? Could it be any worse than what we did do? We would bring the LBs sometimes but they never got there. They don’t even blitz well.

I don't think we had one of those all year.
