How dumb is the shotgun formation on the goal line in college football? I dove into its touchdown rate vs. QB under center, and it was even worse than I thought. Spent a good chunk of the offseason on this research. Hope you enjoy 👇 tuscaloosanews.com/story/sports/c…

Nate Oats on pace of play without Holloway: "We had all the injuries all year and not one time did we walk into a game and say 'we're going to play a little slower.' ... we play the way we play. ... we're not changing the way we play based on who we have or don't have. We'll change things only based on what the other team is doing."

Nate Oats on Amari Allen: "He came in right away in the summer and established that he wouldn't back down from anybody. There were days in the summer when he was our best player."
