Bama has been at the bottom of the opponent-penalty charts in the site I linked above for more than 10 years.
that's not true. last year we were in top 10 in most opp penalties. though we did play 1 more game than most, so per game puts us 38th. 2020 we were 15th and 71st, respectively. there was a period of about 7-8 years where we were near dead last each year save 1, but the last 2-3 years we've been middle of the pack (60s/70's) for opp p/g.

this is what i meant when i said that refs swallow the whistle on oline holding in bama games. neither team gets any calls. and it's been that way for damn near a decade now, if not longer. that aforementioned blog had data that went back to 2014, i think. no idea why. original theory was that bama's games were blowouts from the jump and the refs just let it play to get game over with sooner. but for games like this one, that obviously doesn't hold.

...unlike Bama's O-line.

ba-zing!
