Game over....that was quick....Clemson should have tried to pin Bama deep instead of going for it at midfield...

[jtoler]

Horrible 4th down call produces 7, you cant do that in a game like this. Theyll get it right back though.

[Fred The Hammer]

Wow....can't make 4th/1 so the D just collapses. Scrub ass fresh QB doesn't even have to throw

[El Nino]

Touch Dowwwwwwwwn, BAMA! Those Bama girls can twirl my baton any day!

[shocka1212]

Time to go out for some ice cream.. hope it's still a game by the time I get back.. and a big thank you to Paco.

[unde0087]

good start for the over

[NardVa]

Wow....can't make 4th/1 so the D just collapses. Scrub ass fresh QB doesn't even have to throw

Not making the 4th and 1 took all of the life put of Clemson...game over...

[El Nino]

Bama -10.5 (-102) Live

[funnyb25]

This could get ugly

[NardVa]

Wow....can't make 4th/1 so the D just collapses. Scrub ass fresh QB doesn't even have to throw

Everything went wrong for Clemson...offense can't convert...defense is caught sleeping...Bama with a blowout....

[nomar122977]

lets go clemson get this td

[NardVa]

All Bama did was hand the ball of twice....game over...

[nomar122977]

refs controling this one

[Fred The Hammer]

This could get ugly

Clemson is an experienced team.....don't panic. They're making stupid penalties though....facemask on a return?

[Mac4Lyfe]

Nice return for Clemson. Bama special teams, especially FG kicker is very suspect. Huge penalty on Clemson. Uh oh, this might get ugly if Clemson doesn't move the ball here.

[shocka1212]

The OL jet sweep.. gotta do better than that

[NardVa]

Wow another dumb penalty....

[intermission]

is watson gonna throw some long ball?

[jtoler]

What quarter do you guys think Bama will start to be + money. Prob need to get up by 7 late in the 2nd.

[SEAHAWKHARRY]

I got bama -6 but jesus people this game is far from over

[trillz]

Watson will have to put the team on his back if they want to win

[Jakenv21]

Do they just make up penalties any more?? Hitting a player out of the play??

[Mac4Lyfe]

Clemson is an experienced team.....don't panic. They're making stupid penalties though....facemask on a return?

Defense wins championships. I think Bama's defense is A LOT better but can Watson neutralize things? I also think the Bama talent level is much better as well.

[krk1030]

Helmet to helmet not called

pretty clear who the refs are on....

[nomar122977]

how was that shit not helmet to helmet

[SEAHAWKHARRY]

Punt bitches

[funnyb25]

Punt bitches

[Mac4Lyfe]

Watson will have to put the team on his back if they want to win

Yep

Do they just make up penalties any more?? Hitting a player out of the play??

I've never heard of that shit before. If you are on the field, you might get hit, right???

[El Nino]

how was that shit not helmet to helmet

Helmet to helmet stops mattering once you are established as a runner. It's only to protect "defenseless" receivers as they catch the ball.

[chico2663]

[El Nino]

Yep

I've never heard of that shit before. If you are on the field, you might get hit, right???

It's like a crack back block or hitting the QB on an INT just because. They fazed all of that out of football. Too many injuries.

[vinhmen]

If Williams concussed bad news

[krk1030]

His legs were being held down by another defender....how much more defenseless can you be.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Helmet to helmet not called
pretty clear who the refs are on....

With a receiver AFTER he caught the ball and was running? I don't think so. He was not a defenseless receiver.

Those big shots set the tone in games early. They're not going to want to come across the middle again.
