NC Game Thread: Clemson (14-0) vs Alabama (13-1), 8:30 pm ESPN

[UTK]

There is good in this world.

 

[VolnJC]

They'd be like several notches above above SMU, presuming they weren't kicked out of the conference because the other schools lost money on their SEC games against Alabama being banned from television.

(Also, I think it was just considered for the case of Means in the 90s, wasn't it?)

Yeah, I remember the NCAA even put it in their report that they came within a razor's edge of getting lack of institutional control

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

You gotta be kidding me....

All I'm saying is that after the statement bowl win over NU, we'll have fans expecting a Natty in the next year. And, when closing the gap between a 10 win and an 11 win season doesn't happen on that timelime, they'll be calling for Butch's head.

No we won't. Sheez.

 

[TrueOrange]

Oh look, Alabama scored again.

Well, ####

The moment you realize a kick return for a touchdown just sealed your fate to lose in the championship. Sucks to be Dabbo.

Clemson needs a new special teams coach. Another pointless overloaded alignment. Whats the point of that? Just left a mile of grass on the left side.

 

[Grand Vol]

Well that's game...

Though I'd be happy to eat crow

 

[jimallvol]

Bama is showing the difference between winning teams, and championship teams!

When did Fowler become so infatuated with Bama? He was out of breath before Drake was at the 40.

 

[vols-1]

Omg

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

Wow. Sabans teams known for dominating running games and squashing smothering defenses. Special teams plays in 4th quarter are whats going to get him this title.

 

[TrueOrange]

They were the closest, but the NCAA also felt so bad about how much that nuked the SMU program that they pretty much resolved to not use it again unless absolutely necessary.

 

[UTK]

One day my kids will ask "daddy, why are there no national championship winners listed under 09, 11, 12, and 15?". Its sad for the sport.

 

[Vols4life]

Special teams special man....special teams

Isn't he a Bama alum?

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Evan Berry can do that in his sleep..

 

[TrueOrange]

Obviously the dynasty is dead

About that

Alabama doing what they have done all year.

Living on the explosive play.

They've made about 4 plays in this game and they were all 50+ yard TD's

Recee Davis is. Fowler is a Colorado alum.
