Either way, we never got them off balance and backing off.



Balance is so, so important when all else is equal in football. It's why you hear that word so much especially in regards to the NFL.

Even getting the linebackers flowing from side to side can make the difference in a half-second that allows your guards to get leverage.

The fact that Bama's safeties were meeting Fournette at the LOS shows they did not respect anything other than us running the football. The fact that Bama's D-linemen were blowing up an offensive line that does not have a dearth of talent shows they didn't respect much of anything going outside the box.
