Title: Saban: Shuffling on line no excuse for Alabama Post by: pmull on September 06, 2011, 02:14:17 PM Coach Nick Saban doesn’t consider the line shuffling a valid excuse for missed blocks or what he described as a lack of consistency in the opener with Kent State.
“When you play on your toes and put your head down and whiff the linebacker, what does that have to do with who plays where?” Saban said Monday. “It doesn’t matter if you’re playing center, guard, tackle, tight end. “It really doesn’t matter which position you’re playing to be able to get your second step on the ground and butt the guy in the throat and finish the block.” http://www.gadsdentimes.com/article/20110905/WIRE/110909877/1192/sports02?Title=Saban-Shuffling-on-line-no-excuse-for-Alabama Title: Re: Saban: Shuffling on line no excuse for Alabama Post by: SUPERCOACH on September 06, 2011, 02:35:15 PM I see that CNS has got this. I'm not concerned any more.

I certainly noticed the poor line play so I am happy the coaching staff noticed it as well. I think we will see a sense of urgency in our line play this week. |
