Title: "Saban pleased with Tide's evolving offense" Post by: Chechem on April 12, 2012, 05:08:40 AM http://espn.go.com/blog/sec/post/_/id/41655/saban-pleased-with-tides-evolving-offense
Quote Alabama has won two of the past three BCS national championships, but Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban said his team’s offense has yet to become the kind of attack he wants it to be. Last season, when the Crimson Tide went 12-1 and defeated LSU 21-0 in the Jan. 9 Allstate BCS National Championship Game in New Orleans, it ranked 69th nationally in passing (215.1 yards per game) and 31st in total offense (429.6 yards). “We’ve never been quite the style of offense I’ve wanted to be here,” Saban said. “We’ve always had such good backs, and our offensive line has been pretty good.

This is Saban's third OC at Bama, and he might be the best yet. Title: Re: "Saban pleased with Tide's evolving offense" Post by: #1Tidefan on April 13, 2012, 01:50:11 AM I'm more worried/concerned about the D, than the O. Saturday should tell us everything we need to know...
