The running game... or lack thereof

[MikeInBama]

I saw a stat that said Saban was 30-20 in one score games at Alabama. I honestly find that hard to believe (his winning percentages in most stats are usually so good), but it demonstrates that Saban didn't let many teams get close (and almost all his losses were by a single score).

Saban was 33-21 in one score games, all six losses in 2007 were one score games

Basically one a year… And frequently one of the better teams or a trap game.
