They keep showing the last play of the Iron Bowl and the more I see it the more I think it was an incredibly stupid decision to try to kick the field goal by a great coach. If you look at the odds of making that 57 yarder with a back up kicker and compare it to the odds that it could get blocked and returned for a TD and then add the odds that it could be returned for a TD, I just don't think it made any sense at all. It really makes me question whether they were even aware of the possibility that Auburn could return the thing, because as has been talked about, the personnel you put on the field for a FG team is ill-suited to cover a kick return. I guess at least we can say that for one second of game time, Alabama wishes they'd had our coach instead of theirs, because we all know Grobie would've took a knee and gone to OT without even trying to get in FG range...:thumbsup:
