Bama example of why you slow down the offense

[Gismo]

Left Clemson too much clock. But who expected QB to scramble 30 yards to the end zone.

 

generally I am against the slowing the offense philosophy, but this is a situation where it should be considered.

You know..."slowing down the offense" is another way of saying, manufacturing drives.  

Maybe, just maybe, our defense was cashed all the time(or some of the time) cause we would score in like 2-4 plays.  Maybe the defense needs like a 9-10 play drive and like 5-10 minutes off the clock to rest up, before they're thrown back out there.  

 

Just a few thoughts...

 

GO BULLS!!!

Conditioning wasn't reason our defense was bad at times...it was the bad tackling and way out of position and bad angles.  

Didnt Temple have a 10 play drive to start the game?

So Hurts should have considered just falling down at about the 15 so they could take more time of the clock ...

No our defense sucked in the beginning of games so that had nothing too do with it. Sometimes we got better in second half and others we did not. Most games we sucked. 8 games plus 35 ppl. Our offense had two subpar games against Florida st and Temple and we lost.

There is NO SUCH THING as "scoring too quickly"

There is only "bad defense"

Alabama was eating clock time.

Alabama's bad offense through out the game tired out their defense not the last drive.
