Numbers are regular season stats in yards:
Alabama Offense....... 40 Pass 9 Run
Clemson Defense....... 11 Pass 20 Run
Clemson Offense....... 7 Pass 37 Run
Alabama Defense.......9 Pass 1 Run
On defense, Clemson should stop ‘Bama’s passing game and could slow ‘Bama’s running game.
‘Bama's defense should stop Clemson’s running game cold but the Clemson offense could have success with college’s 7th best passing game. ‘Bama’s 1st against the run but 9th against the pass.
Looks favorable for ‘Bama but if Clemson’s run defense holds and they find success in their very good passing game it could be close. Obviously, a good passing offense scores points more quickly than a running offense. So if one team had to come from behind, Clemson’s passing game would have a better chance than Alabama’s running game.
I would like to state: if any Clemson player grabs any Alabama player in the private parts, they should be ejected from the game. That was an appalling display during the Ohio State-Clemson game in New Years Eve!
Anyone know if this is only available on ESPN, or if a major broadcaster will carry?
Roll Tide Roll!
ESPN.
It basically comes down to if Bama gets yet another defensive TD. if so, they win. Otherwise, I think Clemson has the edge, especially at QB. I think Hurts will struggle a bit tonight.
I’ll take Clemson for the upset
Thanks!
Up-the-street at the real Carolina, (but will pull 4 Clemson)...
I thought he was lookin for woody
I saw a picture of an Ohio State player on the ground, stomach down, and the play was over. Then one of the Clemson players reached through his legs from behind to grab him. It was disgusting. Look at Ben Boulware’s comments and look up the pictures from the game.
Regardless who wins tonight, I’d like to heartily thank Clemson for humiliating OSU !
Because the Florida Great Player and Coach Steve Spurrier is 8-3 vs Dabo and Nick Saban
I am trying to figure out whether I care which group of illiterate college students can run the fastest or catch a ball, but who knows one of them may cure cancer one day or create cheap room temperature superconductors, or make electron sized gates powered by quarks or something.
Dunno how/if the legalities apply, but folks have been busted/fired on a sexual assault charge for less.
I don’t have a dog in this fight. But I was disgusted to find the incidents that went on during the OSU-Clemson game.
Does that factor in all 57 states ? ;-)
Agree completely.
