You could ask the same question of Atlanta... but the answer there is a lot easier... Kyle Shanahan is a moron.

Yup.

Two words, Greg McElroy. If you didn't have a lead or look wide open he wasn't throwing the football............................ever.

Also true.

The definition of efficiency. I can't tell you the degree of respect I hold for that kid—on and off the field.

Yes, McElroy rarely took any type of risk throwing the ball. The game has changed a bit since then, but the idea was that if you have a dominant defense and a string running game you were not likely to lose unless you shot yourself in the foot with turnovers. The prevalence of the spread and the up tempo offenses caused us to adjust our thinking a bit on both sides of the ball.

Reuben Foster hit that man so hard the entire ole miss bench flinched

Cool new recruiting poster: ROLL TIDE!!!

Alabama has been ranked in the top 5, 110 of the last 130 polls. Looks like Eddie Jackson came to the right place.
