I was there and it was not pretty in person. More of a mental state than lack of game plan. if you watched the prior 3 Bama games you could see it coming. There is a reason repeating as NC is a challenge, it is harder to keep the mental focus when you are on top. Saban has done it better than most (all). Reload and use the beatdown as motivation for next year.
I wish I had my drone with me while I was out there. there are some amazing views around Pebble Beach (no clue if it is a NFZ) but you can keep the cities....
