I am not here to make excuses for the offense or Beck. Watched the game in a truck stop lounge in London Ohio. And i know what was gonna come after the game. We didnt beat UF 45-10 so we are not that good, Beck is not good blah blah.
If you are say 25 and under, you will not remember Saban first teams at Bama, winning titles with John Parker Wilson and Greg McElroy. When nothing else is working, they pounded the rock and played defense, thats where they came up with the term "Murder Ball".
Saban said something leading up to the game, your defense is least affected by the road crowd. Why? Because the fans are quiet for their own offense. Canes had the best offense by far last season and we lost 2 games on the road and the bowl game with no defense. It be great to have that offense with this team but this offense is more complimentary to this defense as well.
The game worked out as best it could for UF to seem like they were in the game. They were never in it. Brockermeyer penalties and miscues made it work out well for UF defense. Prevent and hope you make mistakes thats kills drive and also try to force the ball downfield, which Beck did one time. UF has multiple players in their secondary who we wanted badly in ours. I predicted it was gonna be 27-13. That was my thinking before the game, worked out almost exactly the way i thought it would.
When we go up to Tally and the late road games up north, i want this running game and this defense.
Also if you think Beck is a bad QB or any of that nonsense, go watch man play big games in the SEC. He had a relatively poor game. Yet we won by 19.
This was not a stat pad cupcake start my friends, we are 4-0. We back in the big times. You will have to get used to winning multiple different ways.
