His rushing game as an OC is terrible.

I stand corrected. I thought that he had some better rushing offenses.


In 2023 at Washington, they had a RB with nearly 1200 yards and averaged 5.1 yards per carry. 118 yards per game average.

In 2022, they had a RB with nearly 900 yards, averaging 6.3 per carry, and another with over 500 yards averaging 4.9. 146 yards per game average.

In 2021 at Fresno St, they had 2 RBs over 700 yards, 5.6 per carry and 4.9 for each of them. 137 yards per game average.

In 2020, they didn't play many games but they averaged 5.2 and 5.1 per carry and 123 yards per game.

Those are all offenses that were successful running the ball.

Last year our problems were clearly the OL and our RBs. I'm not sure what play calling anyone thinks could have been called that would have changed that. We ran more rushing plays than pass plays last year. I wish we had ran the ball less.

These troll threads are just dumb started by people too ignorant to understand anything about the game. Despite the OL problem, we still beat every SEC team we faced and finished in the top10. The thought of Alabama getting a better line isn't a reality they want to deal with.

Talking shite while they can before games get played again.

He isn't a bad OC necessarily, he just doesn't run the ball



It's not just that he doesn't run the ball. If they have a negative run play, he pretty much tells himself "I'm never going to do that again!"

It's almost like there's someone in the booth with a gun to his head telling him to pass the ball every down.

Sure, they could run the ball, they just don't for whatever reason.

Our two losses were to teams that we also defeated:

Lost to Oklahoma in the regular season, beat them in the playoffs
Lost to Georgia in the SECCG, beat them in the regular season

We weren't undefeated, but we did beat every SEC team we faced.

If decline is the approach you're already well on your way.

Bama's offense has declined from averaging 40+ points a game to an average offense averaging 27.6 points per game. How far can yall drop? Jackson Arnold level?

Yea I never thought I’d see the day ALABAMA was so weak on the OL.Grubb and Joe Sloan at LSU put out some pathetic soft offenses.I don’t know how many OLmen Ala lost after NS left but they really took a step back.DeBore might have signed his coaching deat warrant by not firing him just as BK did by keeping Sloan.

Here's some facts for you.

The rushing rankings of Ryan Grubb offenses the last 6 years.

2025 Alabama - 125th
2024 Seattle (NFL) - 28th (out of 32 teams)
2023 Washington - 106th
2022 Washington - 69th
2021 Fresno - 91st
2020 Fresno - 108th


If Deboer turns out to be a good coach for Alabama, it won't matter because winning is winning. But it still has to sting their fans a little bit that their offense is a pansy west coast offense and not hard nosed and physical. Not being able to run the ball is a huge buzzkill when you're watching your favorite team play.

South Carolina was up 8 and had the ball with 2 and a half minutes left. Outgained by Tennessee. Escaped Columbia. Florida State! Didn't cross the 45 yard line in the SECCG until late in the third quarter. Outgained by 100 yards in the second Oklahoma game.

Averaged .8 yards per carry in the months of December and January.

I admire your enthusisam, but shite!

Gumps celebrating wins over teams with interim coaches because of how fricking embarrassed they were by Indiana


In the last 100 years a grand total of 3 LSU coaches - out of 17 - had a winning record against Alabama.

Paul Dietzl against Ears Whitworth.

Bill Arsparger against Ray Perkins.

Nick Saban against Mike Shula and Dennis Francione.

Three of LSU’s seventeen coaches the past 100 years had a winning record.

FOURTEEN of them got put down like Old Yeller by Alabama.

Those three coaches were responsible for 30% of LSU’s wins - 8 total - over Alabama. The other 14 combined to win 19 games.

Nick Saban was most successful. And after five seasons he’d had enough of drunk, belligerent coonasses. He told LSU to frick off and then spent 17 seasons in Tuscaloosa putting the final nails in LSU’s coffin.

The last series that was as one sided as LSU vs. Alabama was Titanic vs. Iceberg.
