re: Here is every hold by Alabama's Offensive Line(pics). Only One was called

Jesus. All those pictures, and only two that you can say "yeah...that doesn't look like it could be anything other than holding". An offensive player can have their hands outside the shoulders all they want. It has to restrict the defender in order for it to be called. Bear hugging and pushing a defender out of the way isn't shite. Bear hugging and preventing him from running a certain direction due to the bear hug, is.
