Oregon vs. Alabama

Serious questin....How do you truly know how good of a coach he is when his teams talent outmatches the opposition every time.

Think about this for a second. The teams that have beaten Bama over the past 3 years have what in common?

LSU's talent is comparable to Bama's. They beat Bama in 2010 with what many would call a handicap coach in Miles. Later that season Bama ran up against another team with comparable talent that season.....Auburn. What happened.

The next season Bama's only loss again was to a team with comparable talent in LSU.

Think about this season. Bama's 3 tough games....LSU came down to the wire....comparable talent, aTm beat Bama with NFL talent on O and D lines, UGA in the conference championship with comparable talent.

All I'm trying to say is that he's average at best even in college when he's matched up against teams that are as talented as his. Which just happened to be the same story for him in the pros. He was an average at best NFL coach because his team was equally talented to the majority of the league. I'll say it again....the NFL will expose you as a head coach if you not good enough.

He's the best college coach I've ever seen personally.

His schtick doesn't work in the nfl, but is right on line for college.

---

He shite doesn't work in the pros because a draft prevents him from getting the best players in the pros. When are people gonna realize this? Its not about his system not working in the pros. He runs a pro still system in college.

Fact is when the player talent level is spread across the board he's just another coach.

Also once the playoff format comes into play I expect Oregon if Chip Kelly stays to break through for NC's. Oregon's scheme can be slowed down with lots of time to prepare. In a playoff format there's less time to prepare.

Chip runs the best scheme in college football. Yes Saban has good defenses but it's more because of talent than scheme. Saban puts 5 defensive players in the pros every year. Kelly might put 1 a season.

Congrats.

Did you just start watching sports? The NFL and CFB are completely different sports practically. Many coaches don't make the transition well. There's also an absolute shitload of successful college players that aren't successful at the pro level.

I didn't realize we were talking about players transitioning.

Saban benefits from the fact that in the current format he has 30+ days to prepare for a game, and NO ONE can beat him if you give him that much time to pick your team apart

---

Nah..sorry. Saban benefits from having the best players in the nation.

People sit here and try to compare this supposed dynasty to previous ones. This is something to just consider.

Without the BCS format in 2009 Texas would have likely played in the Fiesta while Bama would have played in the Sugar. If both would have won their bowl games which would have been likely we would have probably has a split national championship.

Without the BCS format last season Bama wouldn't have even made it to the Sugar Bowl. Undefeated LSU would have likely gone and would have won the Sugar Bowl which means they would have been undefeated National Champions.

This season Notre Dame would have likely gone to the Orange Bowl while Bama would have been in the Sugar. Notre Dame would have probably won the Orange which would have made them the undefeated National Champions regardless of what Bama would have done in the Sugar.


Just something to consider.
