With those two players on defense I believe that Bama would be playing Monday night for the championship.
Bell made the play that cost Bama a chance for the go ahead score when he intercepted Sims pass to Howard right after the punt that only went to the 30.
Huge momentum swing with that play.
IMO Bama was 2 DBs away from a championship caliber defense. Fortunately, there are young guys on the team and coming to rectify that area of weakness on the defense.

The crazy thing is that there was speculation (started by a recruiting analyst IIRC) that Bama didn't have room for Vonn Bell and basically passed on him. But in one of the PC's leading up to the playoff game CNS said we "certainly wanted him in our program" so I guess the rumor was bogus

Well, one that we got that could have been huge. Eddie Williams.

I hate when we miss out on a guy and he goes onto be great....it kinda gets me in the mood to poison shite.

This could be said about any 5 star recruit who's passed on Bama and has done well else where. There's no guarantee connor or bell wouldve been as good as Bama as they are at ole miss/Ohio state.
