What the Hell was Saban thinking?

[Hummer23]

What was Saban doing calling a timeout right before Lindell put the Bills up with his field goal in the 4th quarter. We could have saved that timeout and then had the ball on the 50 yard line with 1:14 left in the game. This week is going to be the worst week ever I hate living in Buffalo when the Dolphins lose against the Bills.

saban was thinking, the next drive is it. it's either we get a fg, or touchdown, or we dont score. we arent going to punt, the next drive is it. I wasn't disappointed.

i questioned it at the time, whats the point of icing the kicker. it never works, kickers are crazy anyways, it wouldnt have helped much.

there were too many players on the field and we would have had a penalty...he was thinking maybe he will miss a 47 yard fg, i dont want to give him an extra 5 yards and a chance to make a 42 yard fg

The timeout was called because there were 12 men on the field and he wasn't going to make it off. They called the time out as opposed to the penalty so it wouldn't make the field goal any easier. Because if the kicker would have missed that, it would have been easier to tie it with a field goal than to win it with a TD.

I never liked the whole "icing" BS. It only hurts. Look at NE at the end of the half today. (If you saw, it you know what I mean)
