    1. That 3rd down Touchdown at the goal line was crucial. Yes, video replay showed Alabama RB getting in... but... if the refs would of called it short of goal line... bama probably kicks field goal. Or they go for it on 4th down and score.

    2. Would of been around 40 seconds left.

    3. No way Clemson would of scored.

    Saban gets too much credit imo, I give Saban credit for going out and hiring OC's with bigger passing attacks starting with Nussmeler and now Kiffin though. The Alabama of previous history doesnt win this game those teams played more smash mouth and didnt pass as much, wasnt as wide open, with all of that Bama still barely escaped and needed a ton of big plays to win last night. When the going gets tough Kiffin showed last year he gets a little panicky, but Bama was lucky enough that it paid off, he'd start going for deep bombs as soon as he had a little doubt about how the game was going and those would result into completions and tds.

    Defense wins championships. 100% the truth.

    But... look at Alabama's passing attack. Practically every big play Alabama had last night.... because Clemson missed an assignment. Just weird tackling... everything weird. There was nothing consistent about bama's offense last night.

    I think Kiffin is an avg coordinator. In fact... Saban calms his play calling down a bit.

    Just not sold 100% on Alabama. To me... one lucky game last night.

    Common sense would tell you that if youre getting Alabama, Ohio St, patriots, Cavs, warriors, spurs, lakers, duke at a short price the game is gonna be close!.These are public darlings!

    Just not sold on Bama ?
    This year or the 4 of the last 7 Titles ?
    Luck is part of it , always has been , always will be , but winning 4 of 7 titles isn't Luck.
    Sparty blocked puntil on Final play vs. Michigan. 106 yard FG return Auburn vs Bama. Just examples
    Just my opinion
    How quickly everyone forgot the 38-0 Beating of the Big 10 Champ.

      Big wheels keep on turning
      Carry me home to see my kin
      Singing songs about the south-land
      I miss 'ole' 'bamy once again
      And I think it's a sin, yes
      Well I heard Mister Young sing about her
      Well I heard old Neil put her down
      Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
      A southern man don't need him around anyhow
      Sweet home Alabama
      Where the skies are so blue
      Sweet home Alabama
      Lord, I'm coming home to you
      In Birmingham they love the Gov'nor, boo hoo ooo
      Now we all did what we could do
      Now Watergate does not bother me
      Does your conscience bother you?
      Tell the truth
      Sweet home Alabama
      Where the skies are so blue
      Sweet home Alabama
      Lord, I'm coming home to you, here I come Alabama
      Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
      And they've been known to pick a song or two
      Lord they… Full lyrics on Google Play

    Thank you Bama for not covering. I got both of my bets! ahhahahaha
    Agreed, I had Clemson + also.
