re: Saban: I had a bad feeling after seeing the low energy of the team before LSU game

quote:

---

Combination of
(1) a ton of youth/inexperience who isn't sure of themselves and their ability to do what they are supposed to without thinking
(2) first real big game for that youth
(3) failure on the part of coaches in developing a gameplan that can let them play with confidence.
(4) fear, LSU is really good and our guys didn’t want that smoke
