Nick Saban, six-time National champion and current head coach of the Alabama Crimson Tide, once quipped, “If every one of our offensive series ends in a punt, we’ll be just fine.”
Lending credence to the football genius of Saban, the Bulldogs opted last Friday night to punt the ball each of their five possessions in the first half versus their county rival Hico Tigers, displaying both patience and confidence in defensive coordinator Howard Cox and his 11-man wrecking crew.
