Saban on changes in the game of football

If this old *** fogie could figure out that spreading defenses(his defense) out to the boundary creates an offensive advantage i wish.......ahh nvm

Saban is about to cry.

But it kills me...absolutely kills me in the nfl and in college when its 3rd and short or 4th and short and offenses go into 12 or 13 personnel.

In youth ball when me and my close friend ever had these situations we would spread the teams out and run it for the first and it worked 60 percent of the time...every time

But I was told “Bama was still ground and pound like the old days“ but they don’t know how to react to the I formation on d? Makes me wonder do people actually watch them play ?

I'm very surprised they aren't abusing Gibbs like they did their RB's in the past.

Saban was saying exactly what a bunch of us have been preaching on here. Space makes the game so much easier for everyone. Most people think passing but it also makes the running game better. Then mix in a decent athlete at qb and they have more problems to worry about. Not only are you spread thin vertically / horizontally the offense has an extra man in the run game. There’s constant pressure on all three levels. You can still be balanced and run the ball if you spread formations to the hashes.

No matter how many times you say it, CIS still thinks you need three tight ends bunched together to run the ball and spread formations are only used by Mike Leach to throw the ball 65 times a game.

The number of people here who haven’t watched football the last 20 years yet still participate on a (largely) football board is strange.

I seen it in high school football where the one team has it 1st and goal inside the 3 yard line and setting up with the qb in shotgun and rb at least 5 yard behind the line of scrimage with no fullback, no TE and end up either fumbling it away or getting stopped because they are trying to run up the middle.
