John Kelly playing in this dogshit system with a dogshit quarterback makes me sad.

We aren't running Gus's offense, so who's offense are we running? Looks to me like we have scraped all but a portion of Lindsey's RPOs but have incorporated his route tree and concepts completely. We are in Trips to the weak side of the field a lot, which is Lindsey's bread and butter and are finally running some combination routes and layered concepts. The running game has basically been scaled back to the dive and counter that way we can stay in formations that Chip likes to keep defenses honest. Sure, we are still running certain plays that belong to Gus but we aren't running his offense as far as formations, concepts, etc.

Terry Grant-like bust for Alabama


Exactly how was Terry Grant over-rated and how was he a bust?

KJ has been banged up all year too, but he has still played well. He has no real speed right now recovering form a pulled hamstring.


I hope KJ is healed up in time for Auburn's bowl game.

RUSHING YPC (MIN 35 ATT)
1. Jalen Hurts - Alabama - 8.38
2. Damien Harris - Alabama - 8.36


The Big 2 and then a bunch of scrub nothing but volume rushers under 8 yards per carry.

The guy who leads in exactly 0 categories is the "best rusher"?


Must have that Alabama degree in logic and reasoning...

I suppose we should hand it to Kerryon Johnson for his ranking in TDs and overlook the fact that he's irrelevant in every other category.

Of course none of them are going to match a guy with 75 carries in yardage when they have 20 less.


Chubb splits the backfield with FOUR OTHER GUYS.

Damien Harris - who has just as many TDs and a much better YPC than Chubb.


Easy to do on fewer carries. See where he is at the end of the season. Chubb's freshman year, he averaged 7.1 for the SEASON. His sophomore year, he was at 8.1 prior to getting injured.

Kelly is probably the most impressive


You mean the guy who had a whopping 44 yards against us and averaged 2.8 per carry? THAT John Kelly? Get outta here with that shite.

Have you watched him play in any other game this year? He's a good RB and he was literally their entire offense on Saturday. Without him, they may have gained like 1 first down.

Just for some perspective, Notre Dame's Josh Adams is #7 in the nation in rushing and we held him to 53 yards on 19 carries (2.8). Maybe our front seven is just that good.

Heck, I'd say that Kelly is probably the most impressive at over 5 ypc and leading in total yardage


He's the best I've seen so far. I haven't really watched Alabama though.

I'll confess that I thought Damien Harris was gonna be a Terry Grant-like bust for Alabama, but I am incredibly happy to be wrong.




#1 player in KY and the 36th player on the ESPN 300.

Rushed for over 1,000 yds at BAMA last year, 7.1 YPC. Also had 99 yds receiving.

Not sure why you ever thought that.
