that smaller CBs like TM7 can be exploited when schemed well against, and Saban did just that.


All CBs can be exploited with good ball placement. LSU exploited Alabama's CBs in last years game.

Tre'davious White is an elite CB prospect and the reason Alabama didn't recruit him hard has nothing to do with his height. He was 100% LSU from very early on.

And Mathieu was a complete game changer, and any team and coach in the country would have wanted him after what he did his freshman year.

It's not like LSU only takes small corners, when the talent in there as is the case with Mathieu or White you can overlook an inch or 2.

Thats true, just harder to exploit bigger CBs cause they are harder to throw over/around. But everything you said was spot on. Have you ever seen the sports science with PP7? Its ridiculous how far away from him you have to throw it without him being able to get a hand on the ball
