Strategy for Bama - TLDR: We win.

[Metamonkey]

We got a good chance to beat Bama. Just like this:

1. Use the on sides kick every kickoff. Statistically this gives us a 20+% chance of obtaining possession, 60% if they don't expect it, as well as letting the defense know that if they can just hold on strong for 4 downs, turnover. If they can't, they score. Either way they leave the field. Talk about motivation.

2. Run EXTREMELY aggressive defensive stunts and focus on bringing max aggression to Tua. Play loose and don't worry about roughing the passer calls too much. Hit him HARD. Drive him into the ground.

3. STACK the line on offense and run a 4 down scheme. Army style. Run every time and WIND THE CLOCK DOWN. On 4th and longs, air it out 50/50 to our boys on the outsides.

Aye?

What do you mean by that?

What do you mean by that?

He means you should be required to post 100,000 times before starting a thread.

What do you mean by that?

Means he thinks he's really cool and not a douche.

I like it, I would maybe go for two rather than taking the extra point. Also would assault the WR's on every play. Risk taking the pass interference penalty over the risk of them making the catch in space.

Winning unfortunately isn’t as easy as rolling the dice every opportunity. You’ve got to pick your spots.

Metamonkey, I appreciate the spirit of your post. I really do. But in this case...it really was over when the German's bombed Pearl Harbor.

I love your optimism, OP.

Meager words for a guy who appreciates a good sleeping giant story...

Aye?

Use all four downs. Never punt. Keep a big runner in the backfield along with two QB's.

If you do that you need Jennings and Maurer to be the two QB's

If we on side kick every time then they are probably going to start expecting it, and especially so with Pruitt saying it in the press conference.

Still leaves a 20% chance of recovering. Which is way better odds then punting it to Tua

I mean that's a great strategy if you're playing on the PS4...

4. Punt on first downs. It worked for Bill Battle, 21-0 against Auburn in 1973.

There are three things that can happen when you pass. Two of them are bad.

That's a 66 percent chance of something bad happening to Tua.

I think some quick kicks would be a helluva lot more interesting than trying on sides when they know its coming.

I don't understand this post.

I don't understand this post.

"Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor"
A colloquial phrase used rhetorically to inspire individuals to believe something is possible even though the outlook is grim.

I turned the phrase on its side to express the idea that the game against Bama is almost impossible to win.

 

[TrentVol]

I'm praying for a win because its gonna take an act of God to win this Saturday

I still don't get it, Big Dan. Germans didn't bomb Pearl Harbor. Must be tongue in cheek.

Implies a poorly thought out but inspiring pep talk. Google Bluto Blutarsky.
