"First of all, coach (Nick) Saban tells us to bat it down," Collins said. "That's the first thing that comes out of his mouth. If you get the pick, fall down. But the first thing is batting it down and playing the next play. We don't need anybody being a hero."

How are those Dawg 'heroes' feeling this week?

SC and little SC practiced that in the hallway last night.  He knows to bat the ball down on 4th down now.

Good work. I practice with Mrs. on my puppy dog toys, I throw to puppy she bats it down. lol, RTR!

That may go down as the biggest, most selfish boneheaded play in football history. Any 12 year old playing football knows you knock the ball down. I hope Mr. Hero is feeling good on the Athens campus right now.

 , Hey MD that was great insight. They would have the attention on themselves than to do the right thing and win for the team. He then would get the attention he wants.  , RTR!

I played LB and even knew that. 4th down, don't intercept, knock the ball to the ground where no one can get it. Every coach I played for preached it from pee wee to high school. But hey Richt's a great guy so I guess it's ok.
