Remember when Bama used to play Big Boy Football?

It seems like just yesterday Bama was playing real smash mouth, hat on a hat, shove it down your throat football. Not anymore. I'm not sure if it was the loss to Clemson, or the loss to Ohio State, or the losses to Ole Miss, or maybe the loss to Auburn, but Bama has sold out on big boy football and decided to run a gimmick offense.
I suppose Saban has subscribed to the "if you can't beat them, join them" philosophy. Bear Bryant is rolling over in his grave right now watching this high school offensive philosophy. It's sad to watch a once proud program resort to such gimmicks that often drew criticism from their own fans only a few short years ago.

Alabama is better than LSU in every rushing stat and metric.
Yards Per Game, Yards Per Rush, Rush Efficiency, Rushing TDs, etc

This thread isn't about LSU. This thread is about a once proud program resorting to a gimmicky high school offense...the same type of offense they criticized Auburn for for years.

First time since the forward pass was invented that someone has called dropping 5 steps back and launching dimes a gimmick.

Your school literally hired Coach O. The worst hire maybe in all of football history. Might want to sit this one out.

"The HUNH, fast paced offense is dangerous to player safety. Is this really what we want football to be?" Nick Saban (paraphrased)

Alabama is 96th in the country in Offensive plays per game. Last year we were 90th.
What's the next asinine troll?

Alabama averages 5+ yards per rush, 200 rush yards per game and leads the SEC in rushing TDs.
We're good with it, thanks.

Probably why we don't run it.

I know it sucks we have resorted to beating teams by a margin of 38 points now... I have too much free time after halftime

You think the fact that Alabama has sat on the ball for 1/3 of the season has something to do with this?
How many plays does bama average in the first half of games and how does that rank among other teams?

Do you watch football? Are you seriously suggesting Alabama runs a hurry up offense?
