Clemson absolutely punked Alabama, something I had not thought was possible. They humiliated them.
Saban is maybe the best college coach of all time, but Clemson showed the whole world just how to beat ‘Bama.
It will never be the same.
Nope. Last year, our Defensive Coordinator seemed to be unable to grasp the concept of defending the opponent’s WR’s. In the NC game, Clemson’s receivers had a ridiculous amount of cushion.
As for our Offensive Coordinator, his mind was already at his new job in Maryland. It didn’t help that Tua was hobbled by injuries. In fact, the last two seasons, Bama has suffered an insane amount of injuries, especially on defense.
We have also had to deal with other schools constantly stealing our Coordinators. Clemson, on the other hand, is very lucky on the injury front and haven’t had to deal with losing coordinators.
Yes, the NC debacle was an embarrassment but don’t give Bama up for dead. We have new Coordinators, a healthy Tua ( Hopefully he stays that way) and Saban even has a brand new hip:)
Bama has a tougher road to the playoffs because we play in a tough conference, while Clemson can cruise through the incredibly weak ACC. Texas A&M is the only tough game they have this coming year.
Bama fans anxiously await another rematch with Clemson.
Exactly. I'm embarrassed.
How can a team that has the best players, the best record, the best coach,etc lose by 28 points, 4 TD's.
(no-one that I've asked has an answer)
