Where do you come up with this stuff? x's and o's work on both sides of the ball. For all of Urban Meyer's genius with the spread, Saban is that much and then some with his defensive schemes.
Urban Meyer walked into a team that was ready to win. Ron Zook and company had bought quite a nice stock of athletes in the years between meyer and the head ball coach. They never missed a beat.
Alabama on the other hand wasnt getting nearly the same haul before Saban arrived. It takes a few years to really turn it around and we will see in the next couple of years a Bama squad that will perenially contend.
You want to talk about coaching and the last time they met, Saban took a bama team that was a ten point dog into the second half with a lead before they were eventually worn down by a deeper more talented squad. Coaching only goes so far.
