Plus, Duke won't slow the Bama O, so it's a moot point. Parts of the game may be ugly.


I see it differently than most here. The way I see it is that with all the suspensions Alabama is looking at in the first half that they'll actually play ground and pound ball for the first half of the game. Trying to chew clock and get to the locker room so they get their players back on the field.

IMO, going 4 wide because your running backs are out is a dumb move.

I think it will be balanced. A lot more of a pro-style look with Sark calling plays. His offenses focus on run first and physicality, high percentage throws and getting the ball out quick to playmakers in space.

Challenge will be starting a half with only two RBs. Both are inexperienced. Picking up the blitz and blocking as a RB would be a liability in the first half, so I agree I dont expect a 4 wide, air it out type of game.

That said, even if Najee and B Rob were playing the whole game, I think the game plan would be similar. Sark runs a different O. We may even see the play action pass and Tua under center with some regularity... mind blown.

Getting back to a physical attack while retaining the flexibility to retain explosiveness given Tua's ability and the talent around him is going to be fun to watch.
