That also was one of, if not the worst showings of Bama's offense as well though. You have to give the incredible defensive performance credit for sure.


It has been rare since Saban has been at Alabama that LSU did not get enough out of its defense to win. You can't win any game that you score 0 points in. It was an embarrassment. If you don't have a title game where we got 97 total yards, it would be the worst offensive performance in 30 years, probably. Since we do, Miles will have to own that for a long time to come.

ETA: One correction, 2014 Arkansas was worse--123 yards. It was like Miles was trying not to score.

After thinking about it I believe the Jet sweep is the perfect anecdote to that defensive front. Alabama relies more on strength than speed in their front seven. If we can stretch that defense like Gumby maybe, just maybe the inside will be opened up for us to run a little more. I actually like the blocking on the perimeter as well. We have some big receivers, JD Moore and Foster Moreau that can get the job done. I know it seems gimmicky, but I'm curious to see how Alabama handles it.
