Not sure, but I think the non-typical Bama QB mishandled the snap, panicked, closed his eyes and simply dived into the pile. Sorry, but that kid doesn’t seem to bright, and I am surprised that he was the best the mighty Sabin could put on the field…
Seemed to me as if they kept taking things away from him because they felt that he couldn't execute. Saban always panics to some degree in Big Games, and yesterday was no exception.
What is incredible is that Mighty ALABAMA is reduced to playing a QB they really don't have a lot of faith in. One would expect they have a stable full of 5* QBs they can simply plug right in and go with. I mean, ALABAMA, right?
Perhaps they are just as prone to misses in evaluation, recruiting, The Portal, and all other factors as we are.
