If we’re talking math, 50% chances aren’t always worth taking on the football field.
Throw it up and see what happens? Nah.
Alabama receivers aren’t thinking about a coin toss when Mac Jones fires one deep through four games. DeVonta Smith, Jaylen Waddle and John Metchie are the main targets in those moments with Smith winning his share of jump balls.
“We expect him to make those type of plays,” Waddle said. “We don’t consider them 50-50 balls when Smitty’s the one after it.”
Honestly, at this point calling it a 75% ball seems a bit low for this receiving crew.
