Congrats, everyone—we made the list of beautiful plays:





Hey @CEB, it not only happened, but also the clip is us scoring on the #1 team.

I felt like there were a couple of formations and several plays this weekend that we have not shown before. Someone smarter than I am will have to tell us if that was to exploit tendencies or alignment or if we just worked in new wrinkles because… why not?!
We ran really effectively early too… which I have not seen us do much this year. Again, new wrinkles or something we saw on tape?

A defensive play, from us



Have some offense too:



End goes in motion, and then he blocks

Not a "beautiful play" per se, but this is a beautiful aggregation of Saban's X's and O's coverage defense. Saban is often credited with Rip-Liz match coverage to defend the 4 verts passing concept. LOTS of good stuff here for the X's and O's lovers.

Paul Johnson would have ran the Flex Option straight into the endzone...then told Parcels, "I'm trying to run the clock out, but your guys can't even make a tackle..."

Is this a pre-season game, or is it from the season when the NFL tried to use scabs to bust the player's strike? I'm guessing the latter.

ETA: Confirmed, this was the first scab game for each team.
