“I have a lot of respect for Miami, they have a great quarterback, and a lot of good skill players on offense and defense, our front 7 overwhelmed them and made some great plays, they tested our defense more in the 2nd half, we made a few sloppy mistakes we need to correct.”

“Manure and A$$hlee are so trash I destroyed them in the 1H and coasted with a lot of 2nd teamers in the 2H, could have scored 60 if I tried”.

Saban took his foot off Diaz and Lashlee neck. He knew there was nothing to gain in terms of a blowout. Playoff committee will view this game as domination. Those two better tighten up because every other coach won’t have that sympathy. Ask Dabo and Brown
 
Y'all are delusional if you think Nick Saban conceded the match and took his foot off the gas after halftime despite still having all his starters in the game including his starting QB until 4 min was left in the 4th.

Saban knows championships are won on the OL/DL. He's tweaked his schemes a bit over the years but he has always prioritized those 2 position groups.

Miami has not. Maybe the occasional edge guy but DT recruiting has been underwhelming for years and the edge guys are way too small to hold up against OLs like Bama, Georgia and OSU.

Absolutely mind-numbing that we didn't test their defense from the first snap. Anyone who watched other teams have even mild success against Bama last season saw attempts to push the ball down the field - early and often.

Disagree, the playcalling was much more vanilla from them even if the starters were still in (which btw, Sanders the 3rd string got a lot of looks late 3rd/early 4th. Same with some WR’s).

Agree. We actually looked pretty good at the time against their starters once we changed up some of the personnel. Specifically, COUCH over IVEY. JWilliams and Cam looked liked they belonged. More than anything, we need healthy Brooks and Cave!

Wait Lu, you didnt like the gameplan of slamming stiff neck cam into teeth of bama defense by hook or crook even on 3rd and long?? Malzahn system went stale when every team ran spread, he even said it in his book he released yearss ago it would happen, dude revolutionized the game soo much even saban had to shout.. But when your mentor system doesnt work anymore and you dont even do the window dressing, you cant run dive dive dive and just add pace and think it will work against freaking bama!!!

Every team that has given bama trobuble has done it by passing the ball and opening up passing to loosen the run.. these dudes had 9 months to create a gameplan and they came up with dive plays for cam.. YIKESSSS

I sincerely would love to hear or read the explanation/rationalization. What exactly was the plan and why?

Exactly. He has no mercy. He’d love to tell recruits he won by 70
Manny like usual made adjustments at halftime. I don’t get it. He’s
always stronger after the half

Bama is deservedly in this position, but **** Manny show some fckn pride after this. This man is talking about your squad like you were an exhibition game. If this doesn't get you fired up, then go kick ricks somewhere else.

Exactly, it's a weird narrative people are trying to spin.

It was in his best interest to beat us by 100 so the next time we even sniff a recruit he wants he can just pull up this game on his iPad.

The announcers said several times last night: Bama is a power run team that happens to throw the ball.

They are run stop D that happens to have good DBs.
