bama hasn't faced an elite QB or balanced offense this year. or a elite defense.

Clemson defense is pretty dominant on most plays but give up the big run every now and then, like in the FSU game. l
but slowed down Cook almost the entire game outside that 1 play

lot of the big run plays looked like more of scheme issue and can be corrected. obicvously the playoffs are on neutral field so that helps too. Cuse is a weird environment with the dome and loud in there, plus teams dont' see the triple option much.

Syracuse doesn't run the triple option.

No biggie, just scheme problems.

Lost to LSU by 10 (you know, the team that you said sucked)
Lost to Pitt by 3
Beat Wake Forest by 13
Beat Central Michigan by 3

Clearly it is an impossible environment to figure things out in. Clemson should probably be praised for finding a way.

I just hope they seperate OSU v Bama until the NCG. Noone wants to see a regualr season rematch anymore (LSU-Bama was a disaster)..ND - Clemson rematch same deal.

I do think if OSU wins out ..they will overtake Clemson as #1. Clemson v. Bama in the Cotton Bowl.

I see you're still stuck on insisting 194 yards is a slow day at the office. You have to be a troll. If not...those fries aren't going to cook themselves. You better get back to it, Burger King won't hire you when they find out you got fired from Arby's.

Dak is as good as any duel threat QB out there. Brandon Allen is having a killer season too, and Swag Kelley isn't half bad. As far as elite defenses, almost every defense in the SEC is better than 90% of ACC defenses, so that's a silly statement.
