USF head coach Alex Golesh was Tennessee's offensive coordinator last season. Did he help discover the key to beating Alabama and Nick Saban?
“I thought we were on the right stuff,” Golesh said Tuesday. “Just didn’t have the bullets to go finish it in the fourth quarter.”
UT was able to go over the top of the Alabama defense, with three of the touchdown passes going over 35 yards and two of them going 60 or more. Nick Saban said he was expecting a similar look for USF on Saturday. Heupel and Golesh’s scheme and execution was able to close that gap. That will be far more difficult for Golesh this season, with a USF team ranked No. 65 nationally on the 247Sports talent composite, a metric where Alabama ranks first.
Part of how Golesh and the Volunteers were able to figure out Alabama came as a direct by-product of the Crimson Tide’s success over Saban’s tenure. His former assistants are everywhere. Alabama has been criticized throughout the week after the Texas loss had many wondering if the Saban dynasty is over. Saban himself said Wednesday that he thought the criticism was valid given how the Crimson Tide played.
