Strategy...

Ok I remember hearing Mullen in an interview saying that "we keep archived film on every team" "for USM we looked up Oklahoma State offense cut ups to get ready for Monkin.

So what have we seen on film and our analysis that keeps making Dan think that we need to run up the middle on Bama with 15 lbs Hollaway and Dak? Stand in the pocket for 4 seconds reading the field against Bama---who else even tries to do that? Keep watching the Ole Miss / Bama game---a bunch of Bubble screens and quick hitches getting the ball outta Swag Kelly's hands fast. SMH.

Look at the OM and TENN drive charts. Both ran over 100 yds around LE and RE.
I really expected to see a lot of runs to the edge and maybe some Misdirection runs. poor game plan. When I saw Bama get 2
Sacks early and we did nothing to counter I knew it was gonna be a long day.

If we are

going to win games, it's going to be through the air, not on the ground.

I agree but when Bama got pressure early with 4 DL against our OL it was evident we needed to do something different

I will have to check the game recording---can't do it tonight, don't have enough bourbon in the house---but I don't remember Alabama stopping the OUTSIDE the Tackle runs by Hollaway. Seems like Hollaway was getting 3 or more yards each time we ran it.

Now Hollaway up the middle was Hot Garbage---Dan please he is only 165 lbs that is like running a 9th grader up the middle on Bama! Also Bama was doing a lot of stunting with their D Line, T & E stunts and T & T stunts that were really messing up the "read" on our Zone Read plays.

Have we seen the last of him carrying the rock?

If t here is mercy and justice in the world---YES I would hope we have seen the last of the ball being handed or thrown to Shumpert. However, Lee and Dear are hurt---#1 ranked Alabama RB Gibson is Redshirting, #1 ranked RB
in Missouri is Redshirting Mixon---so...?

I agree but

we are a pathetic rushing team so I'm not sure that would work. Our RBs are the worst in the league.
