That offense is actually better than LSU last year. Never thought I would see that just one season later. 
Not sure I agree.

Bama has a better OL and Najee is a better back than CEH, but overall I like the LSU WR corps a little better and I like Joe Burrow A LOT better than BAMA QB.

That's a whole lot of NFL talent on Alabama's side line.

I recall a criticism of Saban several years ago, was he wasn't a very good coach, just a master recruiter. It seems pretty obvious to me he still has the most talent, and got the right people to coach now as well.

Saban has hired really good OC’s. Sark, Kiffin, and Locksley can all co-ordinate and coach some offense. As head coaches? They all kinda suck. Different disciplines. Some great OC’s can make great head coaches- but it’s rare. Most are bad at it.

That's a Buckeye Touchdown. And gets us to the over.

Edit: or not, but I don't see why not.

Well, DVRd and started once the kids went down.  Didn't see much reason not to skip ahead to real time after that 4th down stop.

Sigh.

This Bama offense is more well rounded than LSU last year

They scored three straight possessions with their Heisman finalist QB gimpy, their Heisman winning WR out, and their other WR (who may be better than the Heisman winner) playing at like 40%

That criticism could've been fair (results notwithstanding), except then Saban said "F-it" and ditched his 2 stud RB, game-manager offense for a full-throttle one that tossed it all around the yard.  
Once he made that shift, he's so good it's unfair.  Saban, the ultimate defensive psycho mad genius now fields teams that score 50 points per game.  It's unprecedented.

Not that it's changed, but we're now another year removed.......the last recruiting class at Alabama that didn't win a NC was from 2005.  
Let that sink in.

That criticism was dumb. 

Even back in the day, he had plenty of highly effective offenses. That they didn't go fast is stylistic, rather than a mark of quality. (Also, his worst offense in points per drive after Year 1 was a title-winning offense that won a shootout for a championship)

 I can’t fathom that.  Thirteen consecutive seasons that Bama has been ranked number 1 in the AP at some point during the season.
