Yep, chinks in armor . . .
Saban prides his success by building teams around defensive strength. That has been the difference this season. Their defense hasn't played quite as tough. They have just had the an offense that has been able to keep them in their games.
In most cases, Alabama has simply outplayed & looked better than their competition throughout the year.
Spence is right . . . today is a whole different bag-O'-nails. Oklahoma looked like a better team than Alabama in the second quarter.
I don't think Bama's players look disinterested. Rather, just the opposite.
They seem to be playing hard, and trying their best. Oklahoma has simply outplayed them, so far.
The second half here will be truly revealing.
Either Bama proves they have what it takes to play this intense.
Or, Oklahoma proves they aren't Choke Kings, and can finish a game.
