Bama Game Thread: Official Game Thread - Bama @ AU, 1st Half...

[TideEngineer08]

We need to regroup and refocus. That wasn’t a bad half, all things considered. But we pretty much have the game in our hands. Just don’t let it go.

 

[Ledsteplin]

Not a bad half. But we gotta score more in the 2nd half.

 

[rolltide_21]

Overall a solid half. Did some great things on both sides of the ball. Repeat and get out of there with a 34-13 type of win

 

[colbysullivan]

RTR, Bama leads at the half 17-6

Sure doesn’t feel like we’re up two scores does it?

 

[AlexanderFan]

No way I let Lane coach

 

[rolltide_21]

If we score one more TD it’s over

It does to me - Bama's D is killing it.

Grubb reminds of Ted Lasso's head assistant. Coaches like him too sometimes...

 

[Elefantman]

Lane is leaving the bride at the altar. He should have told LSU if they really want him, they must wait to the end of the season.

 

[PA Tide Fan]

This is the best tackling I've seen from the D all season.

 

[Krymsonman]

Well, Auburn has decided that the way to stop us is all out pressure. I hope Grubb is noticing and will adjust the offense to take advantage of that.

 

[Crimsonfan]

That attitude by Deboer will get us beat.

 

[Ledsteplin]

There were until the last few minutes.

 

[bamadwain]

We need to keep it a 2 score game, don't want no 1 score game in that stadium

 

[tusks_n_raider]

To win I think we need to break some tendencies.

We tend to be the most conservative in the 2nd half of games and especially if we have a lead.

Don’t run trick plays or unneeded deep shots but be aggressive in calling the base offense.

Get back to the Pulling Plays on runs and get guys to the edge and/or create cut back lanes.

Start using the short and mid range quick stuff to back off the pass rush.

We can not just go turtle mode here.

Play like this is the last 30 mins of the season because if we don’t then it probably will be.

So aggravated with the playcalling on that one drive. We had an opportunity to really blow this game open. Gotta run some dumb gimmick play.

We definitely could use and atypical 3rd quarter tonight

Lane ain’t exactly LeBron James but this is about like his “decision” crap. He says the phrase “take my talents” and I’m throwing darts at his head.

 

[crimsonaudio]

Good grief I hope Lane decides to do whatever the heck he's gonna do so I can stop hearing about it.

I've never in my life seen so much hand-wringing over a coach who has literally never won a championship.

Such a prima donna.
