Saban coached like a desperate man last night


Jan 8, 2019, 10:21 AM

Like his career and legacy was in the line. He was shell-shocked after the opening Int. We all know this guy loves to “bully” opposing teams. Going for 4th and whatever on his own 35 early in the 3rd, don’t get me wrong, shows he really has faith in his guys but there were some very bad calls on his part. It was amazing and I will never forget how we broke Bama emotionally and mentally. That’s the biggest takeaway for me. Nobody does that...nobody.

Oh yeah, that fake field goal was the worst fake field goal ever. Lmao

I thought it was partly desperation, but I also thought his risky decisions were designed to shake his players awake. He realized the guys weren't executing at a high enough level, and that Clemson was; so he tried some jarring coaching moves to fire up his team.

The problem is that a team must play confidently to play well. His 'desperate' decisions undermined his team. The time to shake your players up is during preparation for the game, not during the game itself.

I think this is the most obvious difference I've seen between the assistant coach carousel at Alabama and the coaching family at Clemson. Bama's coaching staff couldn't or didn't motivate their guys to prepare to be at their best last night. Clemson's coaches did.

A run up the middle with the kicker as the lead blocker?

There's something in these hills.


As well he should.

He stuck his hand in a wood chipper and was trying to remove it before it sucked 'im in.

Bama found out how it feels too be Bama’d. What a game.

Used a trick play for that second TD, too

Uncharacteristic game for Saban
