Manhandled no, embarrassed yes.

Bama gave them 14 points. The pick six and the play where Smith was injured and couldn't make the tackle.

Bama left about 28 points on the field. Clemson only forced 2 punts, they didn't slow down Bama's offense. Bama did that themselves.

Defense just couldn't get off the field on 3rd and long.

Will be nice not to be the top dog next year. A motivated Bama team is always hard to stop. That is what you will have in 19, a motivated Bama team.

You're right we weren't manhandled. The boxscore doesn't reflect that. What it reflects is an average offensive coordinator who had checked out and who's averageness was hidden all season by an an abundance of talent.

When mike locksley won the broyles award i actually chuckled.

Manhandled is the right word for what happened in the red zone. Bama got away from Bama football this year. This dynasty was built on toughness, running the football, and smothering defense, not a pass happy offense that just outscores other teams
