He was giving credit to Auburn, which succe sfully executed plays that he and the hadn't seen in a long time.Meanwhile, there was a Pee Wee football reference made by Cadillac Williams during what may have been his final appearance as theAuburn interim coach. After the 49-27 lo s, he was talking about what an incredible experience it had been and mentioned the coaches who had inspired him.This for a game in which the teams combined for 491 rushing yards, and six rushing touchdowns.Well, as they say, you never know what to expect when these two teams meet in the Iron Bowl rivalry.Saban's reference does need some context, though, so here's what he said:"Ill tell you what, Auburn did a great job with the run game," he said. "They created Prince Amukamara Jersey some edges. Some of the plays they ran when I was 10 years old, we ran the single-wing. You guys dont even know what the single-wing is. But that was my first football (offense). I was the quarterback in the single-wing. But the quarterback doesnt do anything in the single-wing except block. Some of the plays that they were running with the quarterback, I hadnt seen them since Pop Warner. And theyre good plays, and theyre hard to defend. Their quarterback played an outstanding game from a run standpoint, and they executed.Its like playing against Wildcat when the running backs in the backfield and somebodys gotta go cover the quarterback, except hes a good enough quarterback to run. And then they created some Wildcat situations, as well. So they really attacked us on the edges and did a good job of cracking and blocking us on the Khalil Mack Jersey edges. We practiced against some of that stuff. We didnt execute it as well as wed like at times, but they also created some advantages for themselves.Tigers freshman quarterback Robby Ashford had 17 carries for 121 rushing yards and two touchdowns. He was the first Auburn player to rush for two touchdowns in the Iron Bowl since Williams in 2003.Player of the Game:Quarterback Bryce Young combined for 391 total yards and four touchdowns on the night, including 343 yards on 20-of-30 pa sing through the air, moving past John Parker Wilson (7,924 yards) into second on Alabamas career pa sing yards list with 8,035. Young trails only AJ McCarron, who finished with a record 9,019 career yards pa sing as a three-year starter.Play of the Game:Alabama's longest play was the 52-yard deep reception by Jermaine Burton, which Tarik Cohen Jersey set up the Crimson Tide's first touchdown, but the 27-yard touchdown reception off a screen to junior wide receiver Traeshon Holden was nicely executed and called at the right time. He could have gone the length of the field. Statistic of the Game: The average rushing play resulted in a gain of 6.37 yards. If you don't count the Crimson Tide's four sacks, which count against rushing yards at the collegiate level, it was 7.01.The GoodAlabama's offensive line didn't give up a sack, and Auburn was credited with just two hurries.With his sack in the fourth quarter, Will Anderson Jr. has notched 61.0 tackles for lo s over his career which moved him past Wallace Gilberry into second all-time in program history. He trails only Derrick Thomas (68.0).Alabama had twice as many yards after the catch Joel Iyiegbuniwe Jersey (156), as Auburn had total receiving yards (77).The BadKool-Aid McKinstry's had an outstanding season returning punts, but his only return against Auburn resulted in a 12-yard lo s.Even though the outcome was no longer in doubt, we're going to list the interception, which was the fifth by Young this season. Alabama still has a negative turnover ratio of minus-two for the season (17-15).Auburn's second touchdown was a throw into the corner where Ja'Varrius Johnson made an impre sive over-the-shoulder catch. The bad part was that there's so little room beyond the end zone that he nearly took out a cameraman and still hit the wall pretty hard. Scroll to ContinueThe UglyThe Pop Warner references aside, Alabama still gave up318 rushing yards, with two players topping the 100-yard mark. It was the most rushing yards by the Tigers against the Crimson Tide since 1983 (355 yards). The previous season high was 191 against Ole Mi s.Young went over 3,00 pa sing yards for the season (3,339). He's the only quarterback in Alabama history to top the milestone more than once during his career.Youngs 20 completions were spread to nine different receivers, six of which had at least two catches. JaCorey Brooks (four for 76 and one touchdown) and Isaiah Buster Skrine Jersey Bond (four for 36 yards) topped the Tide with four receptions, while Burton finished with a team-leading 87 yards on three catches.The touchdown by running back Roydell Williams was on the only play he had a carry. Jahmyr Gibbs and Jase McClellan also ran in touchdowns, as did Young.Senior Will Reichard had more tackles, one, on the opening kickoff, than field goals. After the senior got up and flexed in excitement from the hit, DJ Dale joked that he started calling him Terminator 2 (Anderson is known as the Terminator on the team).The same officiating crew from the LSU game in Baton Rouge, where Alabama was flagged nine times, called 21 penalties: 10 on the Tigers for 49 yards, but 11 on the Crimson Tide for 102 yards.See Also: . | |
