re: How is it that Bama replaces players every single year with no Nick Saban

This team and the coaches can't handle pressure. When you are in a dogfight where every yard and point matter, you can go aggressive but only if you have momentum. Every decision seemed like they were being made out of emotion. I know people hate analytics but sometimes you have to trust them. When you are struggling to punch it in, take the points every time. Also when you can't score, flip the field, give your defense some cushion, etc.
