Message: [QUOTE="HRE Otto IV, post: 3108929, member: 5685"] Bama’s O can’t get in a rhythm against Clemson. That shouldn’t be the expectation. The adjustment at half should have been just take what they give you. There were plenty of open guys underneath the first three quarters. How often do you see us lineup quickly then look over to the sideline once the coaches observe the D? Shouldn’t they have made it clear to go with “extended handoff” 3 yard passes? Instead we see DeVito looking down field before pulling it in and running for his life. Do you think it was a coincidence that our best drive came from short passes? When they were blitzing from the middle wouldn’t it make sense to send a guy into the hole left by the blitzer? If you want to try a down field pass wouldn’t it make sense to bring in protection vs going 5 wide most of the time? The OL absolutely sucked. But they were far from the only issue. [/QUOTE]
