| Vanilla is tasty to Tide Alabama barely skims playbook in opening victory TUSCALOOSA - When it comes to ice cream, it's tough to beat vanilla. When it comes to college football offenses, it's easy to beat vanilla. Unless, of course, your vanilla is that good - no need for chocolate syrup, no need for other flavors. That was Alabama's offense last week against Western Carolina - vanilla that was that good. You roll your eyes and say that's what Alabama should have done to Western Carolina? Well, you're probably right. But in all the patsies (and non-patsies) the Crimson Tide has pounded in more than 100 years of football, never has it rolled up 35 first downs in a game. And the 52 points tied for the second-most scored in a game since 1993. That's some stout vanilla - the common term for a scheme that doesn't stray from the basics. "We're so powerful because we've got so many talents at receiver who can make plays," receiver DJ Hall said. "It's just so hard. The ball is in anybody's hand and anything can happen."
