Let's not freak out over one game. Everynow and then a offense will light up Bama's defense.

Ole Miss and Arkansas lit up that great Bama defense in 16. Ole Miss scored 43 and Arkansas scored 31.

Ole Miss and Clemson lit up that great Bama defense in 15. Ole Miss scored 43 and Clemson scored 40.

Even the 2011 Bama defense got lit up by Georgia Southern.

Monday defense update after practice, replacing Battle...

The truth… With Battle out first half, coaches are looking at two options so far.

First option 2 Surtain and 28 Jobe corner, 3 Wright and 29 Hellam safeties, 13 Moore star.

Second option 2 Surtain and 28 Jobe corner, 13 Moore and 29 Hellams safeties , 14 Branch star.

Team is focused!!

Difference is we knew those defenses could do the basic stuff like tackling. These guys sometimes look like dogs chasing their tails.

The difference being that formally it came from an otherwise sound and fundamental defense that was accustomed to shutting down offenses and did so. Those defenses seldom strayed far from their top ranking during the season.

These days, we're discussing the fundamental issues every week from a defense that is mid-tier in ranking during the season at it's best. And then we get one of these out of body experiences and it says we are very much a flawed team.

I'm not giving up hope just yet. The first two games showed some real promise, and Kiffin is an offensive guru who had a chip on his on his shoulder regarding Bama.

If we play relatively well against UGA, then I'll consider the possibility that the OM game was an anomaly.
