Who would have believed at the beginning of the year that these 4 guys would have been the key to winning a NC game in the 2015 season? great stories on all of them. Drake less so, because expectations were so high for him

I'll even go a little further than that..

Who would have thought after the whole season played out that Rashaan Evans, Da'Shawn Hand, A Stewart, OJ Howard and Drake would have been the key impact players.

Although he had the INT, I don't think Jackson played that well.

I'd have to watch the game again, but I remember him and Fitz gave up their first TD. They actually had pretty good coverage, but the throw was absolutely perfect. I remember that he came extremely close to having an INT in the back of the endzone too. Can't remember much else.

It looked like Eddie alligator armed the INT because (I assume) he thought Fitz was going to catch it. Obviously that didn't happen. Would be curious to hear Jackson's recollection of that play.

Eddie was the only one in the area. He's talking about the fade to the back left corner.

The incompletion? In real time it looked like it went through his hands but then upon reply I thought it was out of bounds.

I was talking about the white-walk on for Clemson's second TD. Looked like EJ could have picked it but pulled up for some reason. I need to watch the replay obviously.

Don't forget Ronnie Harrison...his PBU in the corner of the end zone was a huge 4-point swing for us...perfect throw, receiver had possession, and Harrison stripped it away before he came down with it...

Who was the kid who stripped the perfect pass in the end zone?

That was a great play. Huge play.

So proud of the whole team, but especially so for Coker for competing at Bama for two years, even when things didn't work out for him in 2014; for Griffith in kicking the most perfectly executed pop kick in history and for figuring out his kicking issues; and for Drake because of the injuries that he has worked so hard to overcome.
