Saban, ‘Bama add Wildcat wrinkle to the offense
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP)—Coach Nick Saban and old-fashioned Alabama resisted the Wildcat offense craze all of last season, after it had caught on around college football and even with his former NFL team.
He didn’t bother with it in the spring either. Finally, the fourth-ranked Crimson Tide installed the fashionable formation during fall camp.
Saban wasted no time unveiling it: Tailback Mark Ingram took the season’s first snap out of the shotgun and plenty of others before the opener against Virginia Tech was over.
Even ‘Bama’s defensive players enjoyed the change.
