If Swann was as agile as Wright and Wright could throw like Swann we'd have something.

If Young comes in to play the third quarter, we should make him and Saban regret it. Going for the end zone twice with less than 30 seconds to go in the first half? bush league… make them regret it

Young had 6 seconds to throw on the last play. I could get open in that length of time.

If we don't find some ability to rush the passer, I can't see us winning another game.

Our DL may have issues. But they have made some decent goal line stands this year.

That one showed some character.

Kind of disappointing we are leaving our tackles 1 on 1 on obvious blitz packages.

Swann just locked in on a receiver on third down and missed a wide open guy. I am not so sure this experience is “helping” him. Or his confidence.

Also don’t understand completely abandoning the misdirection and field stretching efforts from earlier in the game…

If CCL had Bama's players he would do just as well as Saban. We simply don't match up talent wise at any position (except maybe punter).

Searching for positives:

we are still ahead of the spread,
we are winning the turnover battle,
we will still be 3-2 after this game.

Not many penalties through 3 quarters.

Get Swann out !! This is accomplishing nothing for him except getting him thrown around. No protection, no open receivers, what is he learning ?

Do we not have any other receivers than Sheppard or our mini backs?
