Yeah Saban basically said he knew they were gonna have to throw more in the second half to win and that's why he made the change.

it is not surprising, Saban sees both QBs everyday. Saban Knew being down 13-0 with Hurts --he was a beat ass. Saban knew He had to throw the ball--Tua>Hurts..It ain't rocket surgery**. An the fact Bama-got a no-call (facemask penalty)--A bogus off-sides penalty--an Iffy pass interference penalty and their OL were allowed to hold on every play--sometime an OL held two diffrent players on one play. Ga. can join many other teams that got Bammered.

I don't know that I've ever seen this much wrong in one thread posted by one person... every one of these takes aged beautifully.
And to say "who's to say they wouldn't have come back and won with Hurts," LOL. And that Miles was better than Saban UNTIL 2011 (worst take of all time).
Also, LSU has had more draft picks and currently has more players than Bama in the NFL, so the "most talented team" is a stretch also. They're certainly as talented, but there are probably 4-6 teams across the country that are close to Bama in talent in any given year.
But if anyone can paint 5 titles and 9 years as an underachievement and have their sheep eat it up, it's you and these dumbasses around here

I have never seen a team that benefited from luck the way Alabama has. They are always the benefactor. They are never unlucky. Some of that is because of the talent level.
Saban can coach fundamentals and is a relentless recruiter. It works at Alabama. He can leave a lot to be desired in-game. 9 times out of 10, benching Hurts would have been disastrous. Lady Luck was riding with them last night.
You serious Clark?? They had more starters get hurt this year than I?ve ever seen. They had their best Olinemen get hurt in the beginning of the second half. A player collapsed on the sideline during the game. You can say lots of things about this bama team but lucky isn?t one of them.

That was actually one of his "better" posts... go back and look at a few...
"It is not courage to resist TUSK; It is courage to accept TUSK."

Saban is the greatest college football coach of all time. There is no arguing that. However I stick by my original post. I used to get pissed at him because when his game plan wouldn’t work I would see him get frustrated and I’ve seen other coaches out coach him in a game situation. I enjoy watching Bama play so I watch all of their games. Saban is great, but he is human!!!!!
I love this Tua kid!!!!! I’ll be cheering for that kid to win all of his games except against our Bulldogs!!
