I'd love to know the theory behind that move. I assume they wanted to shut down Najee and rely on QB pressure to limit the passing attack but that hasn't worked for anyone against Bama this year. It was almost like they didn't believe the film or didn't fully appreciate the talent level of Bama's WRs and Oline.


That's how they played all season. I guess it was a "dance with the one that brought you" deal. They keep everything in front of them and tackle well. They play with 4 LBs around 75% of the time. This was mentioned during the broadcast. Apparently they aren't that deep in the secondary.

That is an understatement. IMO they were the best tackling team Bama played all year.
