The thing that makes this win so amazing is that this Alabama team was very flawed. The offensive line was good but not dominant, the Quarterbacking was substandard except for the last 30 minutes, the run game was not nearly as dominant as we sort of got used to. The defense was going to be special and then was cut to ribbons by injuries. Alabama not only had to put backups in every week for injured players, it was almost to the point of having to do so every quarter of every game down the stretch. Basically they had a great year in the defensive backfield and the running backs stayed healthy for the most part. Aside from that it was a mess.
AND THEY STILL WON THE NATIONAL TITLE
Nick Saban = Best of All Time
