Welcome to Tuscaloosa, Burton! ROLL TIDE!

He will easily surpass last year’s total of five touchdowns.

 

[alabama mike]

Excellent stop!

 

[bamatommy]

Idiotic decision to go for it on 4th down on your own 34!

 

[rocknthefreeworld]

I get that they want to get something going and take advantage when they can, but that was just desperation and the QB threw it to nobody.

 

[alabama mike]

Touchdown AL A BAM A!!!

Prentice already has 60 receiving yards. Wow! Helluva debut already!

 

[rocknthefreeworld]

Randolph just whiffed his man on that run.

RPO fooled me as much as it did the USU D. TD, ALABAMA!

 

[rocknthefreeworld]

Burton may have his total TD from last year in this game.

Saban told everyone what he was going to do and they even put it on the internet. Utah State may not be able to read.

“You know, I think the game has changed in a way that, like I’m a defensive guy so one of the most difficult things you have to defend now when you get down inside the 10-yard line is the more they wad people up, the more difficult it is for them to run because you’re wadding your people up. Then, you got pretty physical people and you can knock them back.”

“People that stay spread out, and create extra run gaps and then run RPOs when you’re trying to play eight or nine men fronts, and the ball meshes and somebody runs a slant out here, and the guys got the A-gap and they’re throwing a slant right where he’s supposed to be–that day and age of football is much more difficult to defend than the old, what I call wadball.”

Nick Saban responds to criticism about abandoning the heavy-jumbo run package
