The Alabama Crimson Tide are clearly the best team in college football. The Cleveland Browns, based on record, are the worst team in the NFL. You know where this is going.

Paul Finebaum asked famous oddsmaker Danny Sheridan what a hypothetical betting line would be for a matchup between the two teams. Per Sheridan the Browns would be a 27-point favorite against the Crimson Tide.

Still waiting on that bag man though.

I don't think you can underestimate how much an NFL defense would work this Bama offense.

This is always the dumbest argument every year. No team in college team could hang with a NFL team.

I think Bama's D-Line would stuff Isaiah Crowell.

it would be brutal ... bama's defense would make some plays and get some stops against their offense ... their defense would annihilate the offense, though ...

The Cleveland Browns have 53 pro players right now.

Alabama has 5 players ready for the pros right now.

This game would look like Auburn vs. Arkansas 2016.

Freakin' Terrell Pryor is a WR. That guy would kill Bama if they moved him back to QB.

A college all star team used to play the super bowl champs.They actually won a few.I doubt they would these days.

I'd definitely bet on Bama, no question whatsoever.

I could see 7 points but 27 seems absurd to me.

It would get ugly pretty quickly. Browns never would punt.

Because Bama would never stop them or because they'd go for every 4th down?

I think if Alabama had a more consistent passer I'd definitely make that bet.

i wouldn't ... the passing route combinations of the pros are way more complex than the ones by college teams ... the various audibles and quick reads dwarf college teams ...

Cleveland would destroy bama. These hypotheticals are stupid. Bama's players are 18-22 years old......NFL players would blow them off the ball. Cleveland would score 50-60 points and this bama offense would be shut out. LUDICROUS

That's nice. Cleveland could name their score against any college team ever.

Pryor would abuse the secondary. They have Coleman back. Crowell would pull a LB in coverage most of the time. They wouldnt even need to run the ball.
