re: What's Bama's secret sauce?

They are almost always better than us in the trenches. Well coached and tougher physically and mentally. As long as I can remember with only a few exceptions . This year for sure. The culture Saban built is still there and Deboer is a solid coach whether we want to admit it or not.
When i saw our 3 captains looking down at their 3 smaller captains during the coin toss, i thought this year would be different. But they were better coached and mentally/physically tougher again.

We've also fired 3 coaches during that span so we've had some down years. It's not like we're been at peak power the whole time and have only been losing to Alabama. We've been dropping games against other teams as well. Hence the 3 fired coaches.

From Gemini:
Over the 25-year window from the 2002 to 2026 NFL Drafts, Alabama has had 28 offensive linemen drafted compared to 20 from LSU. Alabama also holds a massive edge in top-tier draft capital, producing 11 first-round offensive linemen during this span compared to 1 for LSU.
Questions??

They are not a top 10 portal team. They just recruit more great athletes and coach them better. This new coach is not Saban, but is living a bit off of Saban's success and his staff is improving every game. LSU's not.

Gotta run the football.

Two legendary coaches of which one was Saban and he was successful against Bama.
We had a bunch of coaches recently and we lose continuity. AL coach today inherited a machine though that machine has zero titles since 2020.

They have more talent and usually better coaching. When we had the better coaching we slaughtered them year after year (Saban’s years).

Is the coaching that much better?
This was completely the case during the Saban era
When it became BK vs DeBoer, many pumped BK up because of his accomplishments at all his coaching stops and his first 2 years at LSU but he clearly did not have the team prepared for Milroe and 2024
Lane vs DeBoer, I still would pick Lane over DeBoer, he runs an up-tempo, effective scheme, quarterback-whisperer, very difficult to defend, I think most casual fans of the sport would prefer his brand of offense to whatever DeBoer/Grubb put out there - I mean we saw that offense get completely dismantled by Florida State, Oklahoma, Georgia 2nd time, and Indiana last year, contained by Georgia and dismantled by Tennessee this year
Say what you want about 31-13, if Lane took the points or Sam takes the checkdown on the stupid interception or they get Harris, Jones, or Green in ISO schemes in the red zone or we DON'T DROP THE BALL, we score more and it looks more reflective of how the game actually went down. Give Wommack and that pass rush credit, they were big contributing factors to LSU's 4th down failures as well.
