Boring again.
Not watching, but am I reading right that Devonta Smith has over 200 yards receiving in the first half?
He got gang tackled and landed hard on his shoulder. Messed it up pretty bad apparently.
Time for an early shower and bedtime. 2nd half could get real ugly.
Um..... not so much.
CONGRATS to Bama.
Maybe Trump should offer Belicik's Medal to Saban?
I wouldn’t count on Saban to man up.
Roll Tide Roll
215 yards and 3 touchdowns in the first half.
Alabama makes field goal, score 38-17.
Looks like Smitty hurt his hand.
I would have liked to see that 2nd half opening drive 3rd and goal catch by Harris reviewed for targeting.
OS scores a TD, score 38-24.
Devonta Smith to the lockerroom with a hand injury. Not likely to return.
Alabama touchdown, score 45-24.
Having to pull for the Elephants in this game.
Alabama scores TD, score 52-24
Not what I expected. Granted it’s not over but did expect more from ohio state. Oh. I’m sorry THE OHIO STATE. I believe the Clemson and Texas A&M were good teams this year. Not Notre Dame had no reason to be in the to 4 (my opinion).
I wonder if Alabama will begin to give the 2nd string a shot at playing in a championship game at this late date?
Devonta Smith back on the sidelines without pads. Hand heavily wrapped, maybe in a cast.
Congratulations to Nick Saban.
