This is exactly the point
So Steve Sarkisian is coaching the best offensive talent assembled in years.
Along with a whole host of talented players I've already listed above.
But Alabama also had Butch Jones on staff. And before him it was Lane Kiffin. But in addition to Jones he had Charlie Strong, Mike Stoops, Major Applewhite, and a host of others on staff as "analysts."
ND matched Mike Elko 2 separate times before telling him to just go to College Station. We were able to nab the hottest defensive coordinator in college football who was headed to Baton Rouge after re-upping our original offer.
I don't know how else to say this but Alabama is playing a different game than anyone else.
