Special Teams Coach Available

[Chin Diesel]

Epic fail by Bama special teams not preparing for a return off the missed FG attempt.

Guess Nicky wishes he hadn't fought for the last second to be put on the clock

so ironic! Be careful what you wish for, huh?

24 got away with a block in the back but a fabulous play. What a day of football

That return is 100% on Saban.

I was listening to Mike and Mike in the morning a couple of years ago when Hester had returned two FG's for TD's, and Golic said something that stuck with me. Golic pointed out that a FG kick team translates very poorly into a kick coverage team. Basically, you have a bunch of big offensive linemen to protect the kicker, not a bunch of guys capable of catching a 4.4 WR or CB.

Saban should have known that.

Or as Danielson put it they had all fat guys on the field.
