If we go into this with the same ole Vanilla, we are getting killed.
defense with some speed, screen passes. Face it the two teams in the country better than us simply have excellent talent versus our very good talent. We just have to play at our best and have them play enough below their best. It is still better to have a shot at the title than no shot and we are just one of four teams that can win the title that have not yet.

It'll be the same worn out vanilla offense from around 2011. Nothing will change.
with any rational thinking and reasoning, I can't imagine Kelly and Rees at the very least not coming to grips with the necessity to apply new wrinkles and strategies to counter Bama;s strengths and tendencies. At least I would bet Tommy can embrace that and Kelly will grapple with it. Maybe I am just dumb though.
Doubtful we'll see anything creative.
Problem is, they’ll need to score 50 to probably have a chance.
therefore making them more apt to make mistakes.
Didn’t watch the Clemson game.
Bama is going to take away the run and underneath passes and force Book to throw downfield. If he does and has success they’ll be able to get those other stuff going and run a little clock.
But if you want a repeat of Clemson, use yours strategy
Mix in zone read designed for IB to pull it early to keep Bama honest on the edges. Line up from under center and run and mix in more PA naked boot. It was almost unstoppable against Clemson.
We've run that a few times this year, and he has not shown he can make the quick decision to pull this off successfully

That sounds good. Better bring some material. Can't let them get dialed in defensively.
