“There are things we’ve got to clean up and got to improve on. There’s part of competitive greatness -- being at your best when your best is needed, whether that’s a call or that’s a play, and a player doing their job. So we’ve all got to improve on that.”
Had everything gone according to plan for Alabama this season, its trip in November to Baton Rouge would have been the only game defensive coordinator Pete Golding coached back in his home state of Louisiana.
There are a variety of reasons why Alabama faltered twice this season, from penalties to turnovers to offensive lapses and a missed field goal. But defensive breakdowns are Golding’s area of responsibility, and he answered to the topic Thursday. “When you’re playing against good teams, you can’t have uncontested plays, and a couple of those were uncontested plays. A bust on a motion adjustment. They had an audible and they run the same play every time -- we don’t get the check. Getting all 11 guys on the same page was a big piece.”
