Last night's game in terms of a heavyweight fight

Round 1: Alabama socks us with body blows and we look stunned. We swing but can't connect.

Round 2: We push forward and land a couple of big hits. We think we can knock them out.

Round 3: We come in trying to land a big haymaker, but they return a counter. We are dazed.

Round 4+: They finish the fight by racking up points and wearing us out. We get a couple of lucky punches in, but we lose at the end because we can't connect. We didn't execute.

Some heavyweight fight.
