What killed me about that play was that Alabama was offside, the flag was thrown and the punter still punts it. Maybe he didn't see it, but to me you have to have a communication there that tells the punter to take off down the field. Maybe you don't make it, but it's a free play. At least try.
That's something I always loved about John Elway and infuriates me watching many other QBs....he would recognize that offside call and it seemed like every time someone would run a fly route and they would try to hit a big play, and often did.
