Title: "Unit Efficiency: Florida Game" Excellent breakdown of Bama's unit play.

Maybe not as good as HSCoach's assessment, but plenty insightful and a good read.

Offensive Scoring Efficiency  |  155.5%  |  Very Good

Alabama's offense had only nine non-garbage-time possessions in the game, a relatively low number that is becoming a noticeable trend. This is not a bad trend, mind you, but rather actually goes to show why efficiency per drive, and not raw scoring or yardage totals, is what is really important. Although Bama only had nine possessions, the Tide got some pretty favorable field position on two of those, setting up at the Florida 29 after Marquis Maze's long kickoff return in the first half, and getting the ball on the Florida 46 after a fumbled snap in the 4th quarter. Even on the other seven possessions, Bama had a starting field position of its own 30, which is somewhat favorable....

Plenty more about offense, defense, and the dreaded grade on special teams.  :(
