Thread: Boooooomer Sooooooner!!!!!!!!

exactly Joe, this is what I have been trying to say. Bama was not the best at every position or on both sides of the ball against every team they played in the 2 years they won titles. They controlled the clock and used the most productive backs consistantly and never allowed the other teams to exploit any weaknesses. When you control the clock and running game and pound your opponent, you eventually break them down if you have the talent. Oklahoma only exploited Alabama on defense because Alabama allowed them too. Oklahoma was more physical in pass rushing Alabama too, but none of that would have even mattered if Bama woukld have stuck with running the backs who would have won the game for them.

For those of you who are not aware the kid set just about all the national highschool records. Henry was better than Yeldon coming in, and Drake is better than Yeldon too. Drake actually was playing in the Auburn game and was effective and Auburn was not stopping him. Bama pulled him out. Bama got beat in both games because they did not utilize 2 of their better players enough. Henry only ran the ball 8 times. If you have something that can win for you and you choose to go back to what is not working then you deserve to lose.
