Both Saban and Cutcliffe said that their front seven was very good -- not overpowering, but quick and knew how to play defense. I'll take their assessment. I reviewed the game again watching the OL -- not as bad as I thought. Yes, some breakdowns, but nothing that experience will not fix. Also, our pass blocking was, for the most part, very good as the game went on. We started picking up their blitzes earlier and easier.They looked pretty quick to me, not physically overpowering.
Relax, people...this is going to be a dominant team.
