Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 88 Human Sea Tactics
The air is burning; the heat wave is surging.

Tiger Stadium is showing the might of the Devil's home field to the visiting Crimson Tide Storm. Not only are there all kinds of cheering slogans, but each offense and defense has a corresponding slogan. Moreover, the stadium with a capacity of 100,000 people is packed, and the overwhelming purple makes the sky reflect a brilliant peacock blue.

The sound waves surged and slammed down on the red tide storm. Obviously, the Tiger fans particularly enjoyed such moments.

The Alabama Crimson Tide and the Louisiana State Tigers are sworn enemies.

Since 1960, the two teams have met once a year, and it has gradually developed into an annual event. The Louisiana State Tigers once maintained a -game winning streak against the Crimson Tide at home in Tiger Stadium, which is also the most incredible and difficult to surpass record in NCAA history.

Tiger fans are proud of it, and even now they use it every now and then to humiliate the Crimson Tide.

However, as a traditional powerhouse, the Crimson Tide still leads the overall record with 55 wins, 27 losses and five ties, and maintains an absolute advantage in important events such as the league championship game, the national championship game, etc., always blocking the Tigers' path to championship glory.

For the Crimson Tide, among a series of arch-rivals, Auburn University and the University of Tennessee have a longer history, more complicated grievances, and deeper foundation; however, in 2007, Louisiana State University's meritorious coach Nick Shaban joined the arch-rival Crimson Tide and changed this.

Since then, every meeting between Alabama and LSU has been a heated one, and the tension has continued to rise with the number of times Shaban and the Crimson Tide have defeated the Tigers, reaching its peak after the Crimson Tide defeated the Tigers in the 2012 conference championship game.

Now, "Crimson Tide vs. Tigers" has evolved into a fight to the death in the NCAA Southeastern Conference.

Today, it is no exception.

The Louisiana State Tigers played like chicken blood, exerting 120% of their strength and suppressing their opponents since the opening.

The 100,000 fans at Tiger Stadium were not to be outdone, and took practical action to awaken the painful memories of the Crimson Tide's 15-game losing streak at this stadium.

"Tiger-Bait".

"Tiger, attack!"

The shouts were endless and overwhelming, from offense to defense, from defense to offense, every attack and defense was tireless, and it lasted for nearly two hours and remained high and full. The home fans burst out with incredible energy and crushed the visiting guests.

The heat wave danced wildly on the eardrums and almost melted the skin.

Obviously, in such a predicament, such a game environment did not help the Crimson Tide, but only trapped them with irritability and depressed emotions.

Staying calm and rational becomes exponentially more difficult.

Hertz was a little panicked and couldn't hide it at all. His face turned pale, his pupils trembled, he was at a loss, and he even forgot the correct way to breathe.

Levi noticed it, and after the formation was completed, before going to his own position, he patted Hertz on the shoulder. The freshman was still too immature.

"We can," Levi said.

Hurts isn’t sure.

Levi repeated again, "We can."

Hertz looked into Levi's eyes. The noise in the venue was constantly disturbing him, but the calmness and composure in those eyes were like gravity, pulling down his chaotic thoughts floating in the air. He felt the solidity coming from the ground again, and he nodded in agreement involuntarily.

Then, Levi turned around and came to his own position——

Standard pistol formation.

Take a deep breath and get ready.

Since the start of the game, Levi has been banging his head against the wall in an endless loop, like a hamster constantly marking time. That's not the case.

He is observing, he is examining.

In fact, Shaban also realized the Tigers' targeted defense of Levi, so he tried to use Jacobs, Clark and even Emmons to change the rhythm; but it must be said that the Tigers' ground defense performance is indeed tough, and Levi is still the one with the best advancement effect.

Don't look at Levi hitting the wall all the time. If it was any other player, they would have collapsed long ago, but Levi didn't. His advancement is still the only hope for the Red Tide Storm in its predicament. His calmness and fighting spirit in the face of adversity and frustration made Shaban choose Levi to continue to shoulder the responsibility of ground offense. Levi noticed a detail.

When Jacobs or Clark comes on the court, the two linebackers Riley and Beckwith obviously slow down their steps. They are willing to leave some space and let Jacobs and Clark start; at the same time, they devote more energy to assisting in passing defense.

However, when Levi came on the court, Riley and Beckwith's strategy was simple and clear. They stepped forward as soon as possible to compress Levi's starting space as much as possible and try to complete the tackle before Levi's speed started. At the same time, safety Adams also followed up to fill the vacancy left by the linebacker.

Again--

The Tigers would rather the Crimson Tide use passing offense to open up the game than let their ground offense get going, even at the expense of passing defense players and stacking up human waves on the ground defense.

Determined enough, and ruthless enough.

This is something the Crimson Tide had never encountered in any of their previous games.

Originally, the Crimson Tide's passing offense tactics were not very rich, with only three tricks. Now, because of the restrictions on ground offense, they are in even greater trouble.

A rugby game is a game of interconnectedness, one link after another. If there is a problem in one link, it will often lead to the whole game being in trouble.

Shaban is also adjusting and trying, but in the final analysis, Levi still needs to break through head-on——

The Red Tide Storm's offense cannot be separated from the ground offense.

Therefore, they can no longer wait or avoid, they need to turn the situation around through head-on confrontation.

Levi is ready.

Three gears and six codes.

This is the dilemma of the Red Tide Storm so far. They have repeatedly fallen into the dilemma of third and long yards. Once the pass connection fails, they will punt on fourth down.

The attack was completely unable to break the situation.

The current situation is no exception.

Slowly, Levi bent down, supported his knees with his hands, stood behind Hertz, and took the positions of the defensive teams on both sides into his field of vision.

The Tigers, in the face of ever-changing circumstances, did not change their entire defensive formation much.

Levi couldn't see Beckwith's face, but he could see Riley.

Generally speaking, the linebacker's position overlaps with the defensive line, and the quarterback can see it clearly, but the running back cannot see it clearly because of his position.

However, Riley was different. He deliberately stood outside, ignoring the other players and staring at Levi intently, like a hunter clearly aiming at his prey.

Riley, a linebacker with the strength of a top-three round pick, is not a genius, but if he has only one task and can get the support of two or even three teammates, then this matchup will turn into a cat-and-mouse game. He has absolute confidence.

Looking at Levi, Riley's eyes were like Tom's, staring at Levi, this Jerry, with a cruel smile, ready to take a step forward.

He has made Levi hit the wall more than once, and this time is no exception, so the Crimson Tide better come up with some new tactics, such as fake running and real passing, otherwise, he will definitely not be polite.

"attack!"

The sound of Hearts kicking off was heard in the air, Levi, start.
