🏈 Bama's First Offensive Play vs. lsu

[alabama mike]

What play will CLK and company come out and run Sat. night?

 

[TheChief]

The play will go like this: CLK will want to establish the run and the identity of the game from the very first play. Bama will saunter to the line and point at all the defensive players on the other side At first, the Tigers think they're indicating blocking assignments, but they soon learn it's much more than that. The look in the Tide's eyes speaks volumes.

"I'll kill him," Robinson says.

"I'll annihilate that one," Dominick Jackson growls.

Coker speaks to the whole defense, literally telling them that a running play is coming right up the middle, and sure enough Derrick Henry takes the handoff. Ryan Kelly breaks one lineman's arm with the heel of his hand. The shattering and cracking of bones, the LSU defensive front being broken, is loud over the screaming of the Bryant Denny faithful. Henry easily slips into the second level of defense.

The linebackers were intentionally left unblocked so that the other offensive players can laugh and watch Henry humiliate and destroy them. Henry stiff-arms the first hapless, would-be tackler so hard the poor guy's facemask breaks, jabbing into his cheeks and sending him to the turf writhing in pain. The second tackler dives at Henry's legs and breaks his helmet on the Bama back's kneecap, causing an injury so severe he will be hospitalized for six days. Watching the mayhem, the remaining defenders allow Henry to literally jog the last sixty yards into the end zone.

And that, my friends, is the first play of the game. Epic.

Of course, it could be a pass...

I don't think anyone can top that.

Damn, is it 8 yet?!

Fake wr screen and we go over the top to Drake

 

[EdfromT'town]

Pitch to Henry, running to the left with a pulling guard and tight end out front blocking. Easy 8-12 yards. 2 more runs and then a play action pass for a TD.

Inside zone over the left side to Henry.

Henry in the offset I, just the the right of Coker. Henry takes the handoff, goes to the left for a two yard gain.
