"Dye asked if he's been gagged by Auburn,'Yeah...'"

What in the world??

What was said I missed it? Can I get a recap plz?

Finebaum confronted him about being a no-show on last week's segment. Dye told him his cell phone was in his pocket, and it never rang. He went on to say if Finebaum was going to question his integrity, he was going to leave the show. Finebaum said "with all due respect coach, I'm having a hard time believing you." Dye hung up.

Dye was trying to say that he had self imposed a gag order but he was too drunk to get it out. Paul was already going into another question, and Pat said "I...I...I... sel...I. By then, Paul was already asking Stallings a question.

This.

McElroy was holding onto the ball cuz he kept waiting on Julio to get open, who was double covered. Our players didn't execute.

The LSU game was bad coaching in the 4th but the AU game was all on the players for not executing. Good plays were called on both sides of the ball.

Meh...we went away from perimeter calls and went back to run run screen in order to try and sit on a lead which defensive coaches are notorious for doing? Sure player intensity and execution might have been loads better in the 2nd half, but...offensively, our playcalling sucked donkey kong's balls in the 2nd half.

Squatting on a 21 point lead would be running the ball and milking the clock. McElroy had somebody in his face almost the entire 2nd half. That's not from squatting on a lead. The screen passes finally got covered up. Why can't you people accept the idea that AU did a good job of shutting down our offense in the 2nd half?

---

I'll agree AU made adjustments but we started trying to pound it up the middle again just like Saban always wants to do when he protects a lead.

Stopped trying any misdirection to the outside and went back to the bread and butter.

I watched the replay last night and this is not true. Bama was trying to do the same things (screens, slants, etc.), but the AU front seven was absolutely dominating the Bama o-line in the second half. Macelroy had zero time to throw the ball during the entire second half.

No Julio around the end. No reverses. No out to the flats with Ingram or Richardson. There are many things you can do besides screens and slants. They went back to the same ol bread and butter.
