Against Tennessee in 2007. He had lost five players just that morning to the textbook scandal, including All-American center Antoine Caldwell, RB Glen Coffee, and another starting OL. With probably his worst OC of his tenure at Alabama in a 28-year-old Major Applewhite, he pounded Tennessee 41-17. Applewhite took John Chavis to the woodshed. John Parker Wilson was 32/46-363-3-0.

Tennessee had three players taken in the 2008 NFL draft, including QB Erik Ainge. Alabama had zero players drafted.

This game itself blows away your assertion that he "rarely beats teams when he has equal or less talent". Not only did he have significantly less talent against Tennessee, but that morning he lost five key players who had gotten all the first-team reps in practice all week. DJ Hall, who had a career day against Tennessee, likely wouldn't have even seen the field at Alabama the last few years.

Your assertion is stupid.
