No battle plan survives the first contact with the enemy. Coaches can only do so much to get these guys ready to play. The rest is up to them.
Saban and company are the best in the business.
Lots of talk on sports radio today about how the GA defensive coordinator, Todd Grantham, a Saban protege, likes to "get cute" with his defenses and instead of attacking the offense back out and play soft zone defense. I hope that's what happens Saturday. Regardless, there's no doubt that Saban and Smart are much better than Richt and Grantham.
