Coaches are responsible for getting the players prepared. If the players are not in the right mental space overall, it is definitely a coaching problem. But I see multiple issues. Some are the play calls and some are the players attitudes and being in the right place they are supposed to be. If these are the best we have at being in the right place and mindset, then it goes from the position coaches all the way to Saban. No, the players are not blameless, but they should be riding the bench of they won't perform. And if this is the best players at everything we have, someone above them failed.
