After he lead LSU to the NC the next year he went 9-3, he then left for the Dolphins. Same as he has done with bama. Will history repeat itself?

Did he blame his players for not executing again? Then say he's responsible for not getting his players to execute?

Yes he did, I watched the post game. He talked about his players fumbling and getting hurt.

The LSU postgame was the worst - it was not a matter of play calling - it was players who refused to execute the exact perfect calls that were made. Then he said he guessed that was his responsibility. Sad thing is the local media buys in - no one questions Saban; it's the players only that lost 3 games.

I just don't get how they could be so sharp in the first 30 min and then be so flat in the 2nd half..

He did mention execution a bit, but mainly looked po'd. The press as usual softballed their questions.

This team for some reason lack that extra part that NC team had. Even on O which is where their experience lies.

Plus their D was no where near what they had before.

Part was the Auburn D that was horrid in the 1st half as they have been all year. Lost of missed tackles early. Part was a vanilla Auburn O as well.

Bama was dink and dunking the whole game except for the one broken coverage to Julio. Dink and dunk has it's limits I guess. Bama also never got the running game going.

I wish, but no. Nick Saban will coach at Alabama for a long time, probably.

This team lacked defense and the O line wasn't nearly as dominate this year. McElroy landed on his head so hard yesterday, he might be sipping soup through a straw for a few days. They had to help off the field even after the game was over. You could tell he was knocked cold on that play.
