Seems to me like somebody was making adjustments at halftime. If that was golding dont you think we would've seen those adjustments prior to halftime? Why was it that we had to wait until halftime to get them ironed out and actually start playing good defense? I think saban said after the Michigan game that he made the decision to stay in nickel instead of dime, which led to us getting our best matchups and players on the field. Saban made that decision not golding.


Now I do agree that golding is in a no win situation with a lot of fans, including myself. The way I look at it is, the coaches get paid millions and I'm going to hold them to a much higher standard rather than bashing a 18-21 year old kid giving his best effort. Even though that best effort may not be good enough, it's still on the coaches to put them in the best position to be successful.

So I'm guessing that when Smart and Pruitt were DCs at Bama, then whenever adjustments were made at halftime, Saban did those as well? Because don't you think we would've seen those adjustments prior to halftime under their respective reigns as DC as well? Or are you saying we never had to make halftime adjustments while they were DC?

Halftime adjustments are a part of the game. Coaches very often have to adjust to what the opponent's game-plan is. Do you think that coaches just know exactly what the other team is going to do in the first half? There wouldn't be much need for a plan if that were the case, now would there? Good coaches make good halftime adjustments. Day one stuff here.


edit: looks like you were already schooled on this above.
