Interesting Bama Scrimmage Note

Advertisement
Well I don’t watch Bama and I don’t care to dissect their roster but this dude is the most obsessed sports fan I know so I’m gonna go with him on this respectfully. They had to lose more than that.
I watch a decent amount of bama especially since I won't pay for cable and end up watching cbs games alot. That's all they lost was barramore who was a 1st rounder and the biggest playmaker. But he was the guy who's try and make a play and get out of his gap. The rest of their guys are solid runstuffers that aren't big at passrushing or making tfls
 
I am still not sold that Lashlee can coach an offense against a great defense. The Clemson game was absolutely embarrassing. The only team that put up less yards against Clemson last year was Ga Tech.
This is not his first time going up against Alabama. And he's had success against them in the past.

Makes sense.

His quote to me was they’d have to see it they had guys who could keep gap responsibility but get a push. Must have been an issue. I hope it is.

It was also our third or fourth game in a brand new offense that had only a handful of practices.

Sept 4 is a day fit for a King. Bama in trouble. Y’all just don’t know it yet. But you will soon enough.

On the defensive line, Christian Barmore was it. This DL will rotate 2 deep the entire game. We lost Patrick Surtain at the corner and Dylan Moses at ILB. Tim Smith, a big DT, is getting practice reviews a lot like Anderson and came on strong last season at the end of his freshman campaign. The one transplant on D that is having a big impact up the middle is ILB Henry To'oTo'o. He was very familiar with Bama's setup playing under Jeremy Pruitt and I understand is calling signals for the front 7.

Who's going to start at nose tackle Smit or Dale? Thought I heard smith is beating him out

More like Tim Smith will be the first guy in the rotation. All our linemen play a lot of snaps. Miami wants to get 5 quarters of play-calling in a 4 quarter game. BAMA will probably up-tempo it as well. Could be a 4 hour game in the Bird's Nest.
 
I know you guys are deep and plan on playing 8-9 guys at least. I can't remember what sight had smith as the starter instead of Dale. Smith just seems like his ceiling is much higher. Smith and Mathis are the two guys I'm most worried about. Also has labyran ray stepped up or is he still getting injured too much. He's the guy that if healthy could be the guy to replace barramores pass rush. Or is Eboigbe starting? They seem to be the two that would replace barramores pass rush. That's the one area you might be weaker at early in the season.

DJ will certainly get his fair share of snaps and could start. But he is much more the run stuffer. He's a hard human being to move off the line. Tim Smith and Phil Mathis are a little more run and pass. Tim will put folks more in mind with Quinnen Wiliams and Christian Barmore with his push up the middle.

A healthy LaBryan Ray makes this unit dangerous in pressuring quarterbacks on the line and stopping the run. As a redshirt senior, he just hasn't been 100 percent since his sophomore year in 2018. Coach Saban has often spoken on how Ray gives the defense a different look when he is ready to go.
 
I will die on this hill but that was 6 and 8's worst game. We gave them a ton of chances and they caught ZERO deep passes. This allowed Clemson to keep 9 in the box.
There is nothing you can do against a 9man box when your receivers go 0 for 10 on deep vs 1on1 coverage.
Lashlee still could have done more but that killed the offense.
I agree. I don’t think he called a very good game but Clemson gambled that they could lock us up on the outside and they attacked the LOS like nothing I’ve ever seen. It paid off. I thought he should have done more to get the backs and TE’s out on the edges of the defense but we were probably screwed regardless. Fair to say he failed though as well. Should have a better plan in this one and we are 100% better at the WR position this year. I don’t think you can defend us that way again.
 
Just not a good match up for us and our talent level is well behind theirs. They have a strong front 7. We have experience but our interior line isn’t up to this. Their front seven is going to terrorize us and king will not be able to create much with his legs. We also don’t have a 50/50 guy on the outside to make plays against their secondary. This will be one sided. I think we will be lucky to score 17 tbh
