Our offense is the most predictable offense in the SEC. Do they not think other coaches dont see that?


Yup. After 3/4 of the season, they have it down pat. You don't think SEC coordinators don't notice when you throw Bordelon in there with a TE # that it's going to be a run?

Man I know Frank is a great recruiter but his RB rotations have always frustrated me. Even during the Les years I feel like he somehow always likes to play the RB with the least upside and it’s always because they are better pass blockers and don’t fumble. At some point when the dude is your most dangerous offensive player he needs to be force fed the ball, no excuses.

Kelly was specifically asked if there was an issue with Durham in this game and Kelly said no. He said Josh was in the game because he is more seasoned.

It’s hard to argue with this at this point.

Williams has been productive in the past. He’s not been productive this year.

Durham has literally been out best offensive weapon.

I like Frank. But Frank needs to wake his arse up.

Durham is a freshmen so maybe the whole playbook isn’t open for him yet.

he’s also coming off an injury.

He looked pretty good on that first carry having the longest run Bama has given up this year. They need to keep him in by the red zone and call the plays that are open to him.

Taking out the only running back that has shown any ability to break tackles when you get in the redzone is just a wild thing to do.

So “Frank is a RB coach who’s been there since Les Miles was HC. But, he’s always had this frustrating RB rotation… check

CBK came in, let Blake Baker to hire House — then brought Blake Bsker back cause House wasn’t good.

CBK sounds like he’s on Ambien to me.

This. I don't understand how some never noticed this. Frank Wilson has done this for years now. This isn't something he just started doing this season.

idk is that true?

2010 Ridley was getting carries and he was probably the best back

2011 it was Ware and Hilliard
2012 it was Hill
2013 Hill
2014 Magee and then Fournette eventually took over
2015 it was all Fournette

we almost always had a feature back and that guy was almost always the best RB

The reason is obvious. Williams is a much better blocker and they trust him more in blitz pickup.

It seems pretty obvious that he isn't 100%.

This is one of the only times I will not believe Kelly's answer. There is no reason Williams should play more snaps than Durham at this point in the season.

Can you imagine if our opponents handcuffed their best players against us the way we do Durham


Sounds eerily similar to Miles’ explanation of having different “packages” of plays for each running back. So an opposing DC knows what’s coming based on the personnel we have on the field.
