The No. 8-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide entered the season with some extremely high expectations, but a week 1 blunder against an unranked Florida State Seminoles’ side has thrown just about all of that out of the window.
The most surprising aspect of the Tide’s embarrassing loss to the Noles was that they were completely dominated physically in every facet of the game, a phenomenon that hasn’t been observed about an Alabama team in almost 20 years.
Now that the Tide appears to have lost that physical edge that made them so dominant for so long, many have begun to wonder whether or not second-year head coach Kalen DeBoer can do anything to regain it, and what it will mean for Bama’s season if he’s unable to do so.
SEC Network analyst Cole Cubelic recently touched on this very topic and shared what would make him “fear” for the Tide’s season.
“It’s about striking your opponent and imposing your will,” Cubelic said. “Winning with force, and the reason that was so effective for Nick Saban is that there’s nothing you can do about it… That felt like it was gone during this game, and if it is, I fear for what this season might be for Alabama.”
Cubelic hit the nail right on the head with this analysis, and it’s very evident that the physical edge that the Tide had for all those years under Saban was absent on Saturday.
Whether or not DeBoer can recapture that remains to be seen, but if he can’t, then this could end up being one of the worst seasons in recent memory for Bama.
