Bama Game Thread: Official Postgame Thread - Bama vs. USF...

The book is out on how to stop Milroe from passing and it's bring pressure. He can't process it fast enough. The constant trying to hit the big pass when other receivers are open in the middle has gotten old. That's all he wants to do is throw the deep ball. Going by today UGA, Texas and Tenn would blow us out of the stadium.

The milroe crowd is going to tout his 4 tds and tells us how great he is all week again tho.

Yea he was still in bounds going up the sideline and most likely gets the 1st without the shove

All I heard was he missed some time this week for practice. Maybe he was dinged up.

DeBoer just said he could’ve started the game but held him out and give him a week to heal up. OL should be 100% next week- Via presser

Pretty much last year too. And started some in 2022 with Young. It's like they think, OK we've nothing to lose, we'll just blitz heavy and rattle the QB. They've got to find a way to stop it.

The OL definitely struggled tonight, but Milroe is still Milroe. There’s a lot of good in that statement, but I think we’ve hit his ceiling. More competent QBs would have made USF pay for their relentless blitzing. Maybe it’s time to rip the band-aid off the QB position.

If didn’t happen tonight (and it didn’t) it’s never gonna happen.

I’ve given up.

Some of us needs to go back and watch the tapes: Few things I noticed tonight:

1. They blitzed us on 3rd downs so much, and the they brought on more than what OL could handle. This happened way too much tonight. What I don't understand why the Offense didn't make adjustments by calling for screen passes/ quick passes playcalls in that situation?

2. Fromby struggled tonight. I don't have the numbers, but I believe he was beaten all night long and that created more issues for Jalen and the RBs.

3. I don't think tonight was necessarily on Jalen. It's hard to make the plays when the protections break down so fast. There was some decisions he made tonight I wish he could taken back though. on the option plays.. 90 percent of the time he pulls the ball. out of 90 percents... he should've given the ball to RB maybe 60 percent of the time tonight.

The playcalling by OC wasn't very good tonight.

4. I'm not worried about Defense, but some of the playcall was little too conservative. Lot of zone defense to help out the young CBs. Red Morgan has got to get better quick.

5. Pritchett in place of Fromby was way better tonight and he played hurt.

I think we'll be fine.

Another question: What are QB supposed to do when USF sends so many people blitzing? It overwhelms OL and QB. I don't think TY simpson would've done well tonight. Tonight was on OC/DC play calling, and Fromy.

When Bo Nix was at Auburn, their fans referred to him as “Good Bo” or “Bad Bo”. One minute you’re screaming “what are you doing?”, then the next minute you’re saying “wow how did he do that?”.
I think it is a similar situation with Milroe now for DeBoer. He recognizes Milroe can make plays. He also realizes Milroe can “take away” as much as he “contributes“. But the problem is that Nix was a better fundamental QB than Milroe, even during his Auburn days. And he got better at Oregon.
Unfortunately, we saw many of the same things last year with JM. Pressure in the pocket makes him as nervous as long tail cat in a room full of rocking chairs. One sack he kept retreating and lost 15 yards. Not looking downfield, not throwing it away.
DeBoer is between the proverbial “devil and the deep blue sea”.

The amount of flags showing up in football this year is a little strange

But tonight in our game, it was hard to argue the flags. It was just that ugly.

Short quick passes are the way to beat the blitz, but Milroe was never been able to use them effectively

Teams deal with this all the time. Unfortunately, Milroe can’t process what’s going on fast enough to make teams pay for those blitzes.

We've got to pray that when Proctor returns the OL can stay healthy because we don't have much depth there. Lose anyone on the OL to a season ending injury and we're in serious trouble.
