Would Alabama Have Beaten Indiana If Nick Saban Were Coaching Instead of Kalen DeBoer?
Reese, Kmac, Pam and Alex discuss Alabama's loss to Indiana last night and if Nick Saban coaching the team would have changed the outcome of the game.
Yesterday’s Rose Bowl College Football Playoff game between Alabama and Indiana was a historic one, but Alabama did not win. Instead, No. 1-seeded Indiana dominated No. 9 Alabama with a 38-3 victory, marking the Hoosiers’ first ever Rose Bowl win and sending them into the CFP semifinals. Alabama’s offense struggled, and in the second half they switched quarterbacks after starter Ty Simpson was shaken up. Indiana’s defense stifled Alabama, holding them to just 193 total yards and the win was one of the most lopsided postseason defeats in Alabama’s storied history. With the victory, Indiana advances to face Oregon in the semifinals of the College Football Playoff. Is Alabama done for? How does Reese feel? Was Ty Simpson really hurt? If Nick Saban were coaching the Tide last night instead of Kalen DeBoer, would Alabama have won the game?
