In this episode, Tom and Dave from the Alabama Football Podcast breakdown the Tide’s triumph over Texas A&M.

Tale of Two Jalens

There’s the passing Jalen Hurts and the running Jalen Hurts, both have skills and both have delivered big plays for Alabama football on the season. However, one is prone to missing the mark and the other may be slightly overused. This is a trend to keep an eye on but let’s be clear, there’s a little bit of picking nits here because this Super Frosh has electricity in him.

Goal Line Offense

We’re not immune to the rumblings here and we break down some of what we’re seeing. Is this another example of the Tide coaching staff over-thinking the situation?

Over TAMU?

Tune in as we explain why A&M was one of the Alabama’s better opponents and how they were in possession of a formula that could have derailed the Tide.

Do You Have Change for a Dime?

Speaking of over-reactive coaching… we break down the Tide starting the game in a dime switching to a nickel. We illustrate how this is the second time Alabama football has eschewed its base for a defensive scheme not so perfectly suited for attacking the opponent’s offense.

Viva Eddie Jackson

We break down how Alabama football may elect to rotate personnel in the lineup but we also explain how one does not simply replace Eddie Jackson.

Dakota Ball Kick Return

Hey, you simply won’t hear anyone else talking about it, so why not give it a listen.

Mini Game balls

Anyone can read a headline, but which players contributed in more subtle ways to the Tide’s fortune?

Alabama’s Next Opponent

Fortunately, the Tide gets a bye this week. Time to rest the lingering aches and devise Eddie-less defensive schemes. With LSU kicking off a four-game home stretch, Alabama football must remain focused and come out of the gates ready to do work.
