Greg McElroy's take on the game...


I like the comment he made concerning a caller's desire for the Bama offensive coordinator to call more play action. McElroy, "we usually don't call play action on an LSU type defense. LSU plays lots of man coverage so their safeties won't bite on the play action".

That answer clearly tells me that Bama has lots of respect for LSU's DBs and their ability to man up. Bama obviously thought it was too risky to throw into the heart of the LSU D on a standard play such as play action. That was probably a good coaching call on their part.

BTW, McElroy seems like a stand up guy and a great ambassador for Alabama, IMO.

Does the "process" include losing at home to get to the NC?

Not saying he's not, especially impressed with the way he called out over-the-top fans. However, I thought this first comment in the interview was telling. Explains why players like Maize are making the comments they are this week
