Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 98 Like falling into an ice cellar
Fournet was a little confused.

Everything was so unexpected, so sudden, and so shocking that I stood there as if struck by lightning. I even forgot to look back. I was like a fool, standing in the wind, with shock and astonishment all over my mind. I even forgot my anger for a moment.

How did this happen?
Originally, he had completely taken the initiative and was about to destroy the Crimson Tide's defense. The scene after the touchdown had already emerged in his mind. He saved the Tigers from danger like a hero. The whole audience cheered, and the entire Tiger Stadium prostrated itself at his feet and worshiped him.

Then, he proved himself with an absolutely strong and dazzling attitude.

Levi? Haha, who is that?
but……

but!

How did things completely turn around and go to another extreme?

There was a gentle breeze, and Fournette felt his injured ankle aching again. The next second he saw Humphrey, who was so arrogant and presumptuous that it was difficult to ignore him. His eyes followed Humphrey's movements, and finally he saw the football being stuffed into Levi's arms.

The blood rushed to the brain and instantly froze into ice.

Fournet felt a burning pain on his cheek.

Levi and Fournette's eyes briefly met and collided in the air, and Fournette's eyes were burning with anger, and he wished he could eat Levi alive; but Levi calmly tossed the football up, throwing it and catching it again, like juggling, as if he was playing with Fournette's self-esteem and pride.

Then he turned and left...just turned...left like that...

As if Fournet wasn't even worth mentioning.

Fournet couldn't help it anymore: Damn!

"14:0".

As the Crimson Tide steadily scored the extra point, Alabama, playing away from home, expanded its lead and finally gained a foothold.

When the audience saw this scene, they almost thought that the game was over:
The Louisville State Tigers will be just like the teams that faced the Crimson Tide earlier this season, including traditional powerhouses such as Tennessee and Texas A&M. They will collapse and be defeated one after another, and will be miserably shattered in the Crimson Tide.

however.

Ogierang and his tigers said no.

They refused to surrender, they refused to lay down their arms, they refused to give up.

The reason is very simple. Ogilvy knew that the previous head coach was fired because he did not show enough fighting spirit and courage in the fourth week against the arch-rival Auburn University. For Louisville State University, this is more shameful than failure and it will lose the backbone of the team.

Perhaps, they are no longer glorious and can no longer find the style of the iron-blooded defensive team in 1959 that controlled the opponent's average advance yards per game to less than 143.2 yards, but they are still the traditional overlord of the Southeastern Conference, especially when facing the Crimson Tide.

They can lose the game, but they cannot lose their momentum.

Ogilvy showed his iron-blooded attitude, took control of the situation with great vigor, quickly awakened the Tigers' sluggish morale and will, stood firm, and rebuilt tactics around the Red Tide's ground attack.

The ground, this is still the key.

The last offensive wave of the Crimson Tide was able to open up the situation because of Levi, and it was also Hurts who unexpectedly chose to run the ball himself.

If the Tigers want to keep the suspense of victory or defeat, the ground defense must be strong.

The Tigers stood firm and did not lose control because of losing two consecutive touchdowns.

In fact, this is not easy, because the Crimson Tide has enough lead, the whole offense became more and more relaxed, and Shaban's offensive tactics obviously opened up the situation. Not only did he let Levi rest and give Jacobs and Clark more playing time; he also boldly let Hurts pass the ball to reduce the burden of ground offense and score in multiple places with confidence.

For the Tigers' defense, even though Levi is not on the court, the difficulty of defense has increased.

However, the Tigers still withstood the pressure. After the Crimson Tide got three first-downs and crossed the half-court line, the Tigers completed a strikeout with a beautiful sack, preventing the Crimson Tide from continuing to expand their lead.

Tiger Stadium once again ignites the passion and unleashes the power of the devil's home field.

The game was tense and tense, and neither side gave up an inch - just when everyone thought the outcome was in doubt, the game became tense again.

Tiger, two strikeouts.

Crimson Tide Storm, two strikeouts.

Until the middle of the fourth quarter, the score was still deadlocked. The toughness and tenacity of the Tigers' defense really put tremendous pressure on the Crimson Tide's offense, which had been smooth sailing this season. The atmosphere was never relaxed, even when the Crimson Tide was leading by two touchdowns. It seemed that subversion and comeback could happen in an instant.

Here, the Tigers' defense intercepted Hurts and completed the first ball possession conversion in this game.

The home fans erupted in an incredible frenzy, sweeping across the entire stadium.

On the other side, the Crimson Tide defense once again tackled Fournette and cut off the opponent's third-down transition, forcing Fournette to fall on the line of scrimmage.

The ball returns to the visiting team.

Tense, stalemate, and intense.

Shaban, on the contrary, calmed down. The fourth quarter was already halfway through, and there was less and less time left for the opponent. As long as they could maintain the score advantage, the balance of victory would slowly tilt towards the visiting team.

The experienced Isaban must know that choosing ground offense to consume game time is the most economical and cost-effective game strategy at this moment. The purpose of ground offense is not to advance the number of yards, but to keep the game time moving forward. This method is the safest and simplest.

This includes Ogieron.

Obviously, Ogilvy was a little shaken and became uncontrollably anxious. The time left for the Tigers was getting shorter and shorter, and the Tigers' offensive group was not an explosive team. The hope of winning was gradually slim.

Then, at this moment, Shaban sent Levi again.

Ogierang was alert from the first moment, but it was completely different from the first half.

In Ogilvy's opinion, Shaban might be using a smoke bomb, because everyone thinks Levi's ground attack is a threat. As long as Levi is on the court, the Tigers' defense will definitely mark Levi, and then Shaban will choose to pass the ball.

In other words, Levi is the bait.

The reason is very intuitive. After the Crimson Tide Storm consumed time with continuous ground offense, they now need to complete the first attack conversion, get another chance for three attacks, and then continue to use ground offense to consume time and extinguish all hopes of the Tigers' counterattack.

Then, Levi came on the scene.

Thinking of this, Ogilvy took a deep breath and quickly gestured to Adams and Riley, deploying tactics. They must make changes.

"attack!"

Ogilvy's eyes were fixed on Hurts, and he saw Hurts quickly step back and turn around to hand over to Levi, but the handover was not concealed at all, and it was obvious at a glance that it was a performance prepared for the linebackers and safeties to see.

Fake run, real pass!

Ogilvy was delighted and immediately looked at Adams and Riley, hoping that his disciples could see through Shaban's plan. He had already warned them.

Maybe this time they can stop the red tide storm. As long as they can defend this second-down 10-yard play, the next one will be the third-down 10-yard play. The Tigers' chances of successful defense will soar, and then the home team's offense can take the field.

Sure enough, both Riley and Adams noticed that Riley did not step forward immediately, but instead retreated, which was rare, to cooperate with the passing defense.

So, what about Hurts? Who will Hurts choose to pass the ball to?

Looking towards the pocket——

Wait, what about the Hertz?
