Even when we broke tendencies by throwing bubble screens w/ jefferson and a hb mid screen, Bama snuffed it out.


They didn't have to "sniff it out." They were in cover two almost the whole night and these were 2 man screens. They were set up perfectly to kill that play all night long. The weakness of the cover 2 is deep middle, not sideways. Did we have a QB or staff that noticed that and what it meant?????? No, we did not.

There were multiple times the receiver read the block wrong and basically ran right into the defender. The execution on a few of those plays was painful to watch.

lolwut? A bubble screen isn't a man defense play. Its a +1 play, as in if their is one more blocker than there is defender, so 2 wr's vs 1 cb, or 3 wr's vs 2 cb's. Man or zone coverage has nothing to do with calling bubble screen. So if they were in a cover 2 shell, its a perfect play call because it was 1 corner vs 2 wr's, because the safety was 12 yards off.
