Game Thread: CFP NCG: #1 Clemson vs #2 Alabama, ESPN, 8:30ET

Let it out man.. we've had to put up with bama fans and that asshat hammer down for WAY too long now!

Four National Championships in seven years biotch!

 

[The Derski]

Let's look at the openings
Browns, Miami, Tampa Bay, Titans, Eagles, Giants, possibly the Lions and Bengals. I don't seem him wanting any of those. Cowboys might have a chance but Jerry Jones would never give up complete control to get him and Saban won't be anyone's puppet, even if he is the right size for it

A team would have to let him be in charge of personnel obviously, ala Chip Kelly.

 

[Wild Turkey]

I'll give Saban credit:

1. He left Kiffin alone, didn't see him chewing him out all game.
2. Onsides kick was his best call since he has been at Alabama.
3. He didn't let his team quit.

Dabo fucked up:

1. Didn't go up tempo enough when he had the Bama defenses tired.
2. Play calling was questionable especially in the running game.
3. Busted coverages were ridiculous with zero adjustments.
4. Conditioning was an issue for Clemson and just shows the physicality of the SEC is very different.

Bottom line Bama is always beatable but you have to have a game plan that exploits their weakness and hammer it over and over then go deep up top.

That's what's funny they tried in the first qtr to go up tempo and their linemen were dying.

None of those teams other than maybe the Bengals even have a base to work with. He would need an established teams coach retire and take over the reigns like the Patriots, why rebuild from nothing when he can stay the king in his pond.

3 NCs.. and this one is questionable, fucktard.

I'm agreeing with you. I just think he's probably going to get more calls than he ever has.

I hate Saban as much as the next guy but

 

[ElTexan]

Bama's onside kick was WAY MORE "offsides" than UNC's. Fact.

I don't care about saban.. I just can't stand bama fans.

 

[ElTexan]

Saban using tennis analogy. nice

 

[7Samurai13]

I don't care about saban.. I just can't stand bama fans.

Yeah, I get it. You can ask Bama fans, I have not hidden my distaste for them or their program, but give the team/Saban their due.

 

[gpm1976]

Funny how they didn't waste a second reviewing that one, but took 5 minutes to finally call that run a TD. More sec favoritism.

it is quite laughable. how do you call a TD about 25 seconds after it happened? laughable

 

[The Derski]

Maybe I'm a bit tipsy but I've gained a lot of admiration for Saban tonight.

 

[gpm1976]

Yeah, I get it. You can ask Bama fans, I have not hidden my distaste for them or their program, but give the team/Saban their due.

A super close game where bama got all the calls/help at the end. nope. I haven't been able to stand bama since they got that rematch against LSU for the NC.

They were waiting to hear from someone upstairs so there would be no question. Only the sec would get that kind of preferential treatment.

I'll back this up.

Michigan's second touchdown against Michigan State on 10/17/15 was absolutely atrocious. He was stopped, feet weren't moving for 5 seconds and play wasn't called dead.

?? Missed Calls both ways dude. Did you forget Ridley being Held in the Endzone?? Or how about our pass rushers getting tackled all the time??? It went both ways
