Who are these coaches?? I can see a 3 man rush, maybe, but those players were not even rushing. The 3 man rush was containing, spying on the qb, what did they think that the bama qb was going to run it in from 30 yards out. Maybe bama's qb is a very good runner but my gosh.
That is so hard to guard those receivers for that long. It is so easy for a receiver at the back of the endzone to pop toward the goalline and get open or just run around and barely get open in the corner.
This reminds me of Colorado's last second hail mary at Mich like 3 decades ago where 3 man rush didnt put enough pressure on KStewart to keep him from setting and firing the long pass.
Did the Auburn coaches, do you think, tell their pass rushers to not even try to get to the qb?
