Style points? Saban, ’Bama just need to survive

That is a good point. Although I would love to hang a 50 on LSWho, all we need is one more point than the corndogs. If we win out, including the SECC, we play for No. 13. :BigA:
 
I'm not understanding... He talks about how a good defense and strong offensive line might help us win games?
That's silly. Everyone knows that being able to put 52 up on Virginia... I mean putting 45 up on Oklahoma is what makes teams win... I mean, eh, 39 on Texas?
 
Saban is delighted to be No. 1, not just because it is No. 1, but because he can stay out of the political fray of the BCS and who beat whom and who has the better resume.
I'm not sure that Coach Saban is "delighted" to be number one... :)

However, it's nice to get the support in the media that article gives us.
 
Anybody want to bet that's NOT what the players are hearing this week? I like his "HOW-WE-DO-IT" speech. You know, the one that goes,,,, the team everybody hates to play, total domination of an opponent, finish like a Roman gladiator, break their will,,,,,,, all that stuff he REALLY believes in..
 
I was just thinking of something similar the other day. I'm glad we're not going for style points. We aren't quite to the level of Oklahoma or USC as far as having the right pieces in place and having the execution necessary to hang 60 on every opponent. We just need to play our game, get the W, and then call off the dogs. Plus you show your opponent more respect when you don't run up the score.

OTOH, I understand all the 1-loss teams going for the style points trying to prove they belong in the BCS and/or NCG. Hopefully we won't be put in that situation at all this year. :)
