Yes, our defense was supposed to be very good and take some pressure off of the offense. However, the defense was terrible, which put even more pressure on the offense, and they weren't up to the task. It was a very poor showing.
Too me the most frustrating part was the fact FSU, simply looked faster & stronger, than us on both sides of the ball..

What's happening in the Bama weight room..Is it a strength & conditioning problem????

Yes... Beginning to wonder about this... All we heard in camp was "tough and physical, best they have ever looked."

Our OL looks chunky and we don't seem to be in very good shape. If you aren't top notch on the S&C everything else fails miserably. A major issue for Shula and Dubose both. I remember Franny coming in and at least making the players lift, and the gains were impressive in two years, although his focus was on weight lifting and not football strength.

Honestly it's hard too say, because when your OLine has nooooo push, at the LOS, limits your play calling & limits the playbook when you rush for less than 100yrds..

Well, if the defense cant get off the field your first inclination should be to not let them get on the field. I mean dang Im just a fan and know this. We had an 8 minute opening drive. Keep doing that all game long and we win.

Yeah, I think it was 87 yards rushing. 59 of which came on the first drive. I think the staff panicked a little because the defense couldn’t get off the field.
