Bama dominated that game from the beginning until the end. The only bad thing Bama did was drop that turd on their own 20 yd line. Nonetheless, Clemson did NOTHING with that gift except kick a meaningless FG.

Great talent and great coaching. Even an average Bama offense is still ridiculously stacked.

Honestly, and I know some Bama fans aren't going to want to hear this, Saban's teams sometimes play down to opponents so badly that they can't get anything resembling a good rhythm going. Saban is GOAT, but he does have his inexplicable coaching moments.

Almost any team in P5 will look 10x worse when their top QB with experience goes down.

Teams usually suck after Bama puts that beatdown on them. Still can't understand why you fricks don't get that.

So many teams over the last few seasons were supposed to "end Bama's dynasty".



Clemson was supposed to run Bama out of the building. You know what that shite is? It's called wishful thinking.

You answered your own question. prior to their last drive, Clemson barely had 100 yards of offense. Dominating the #1 team like that isn't looking average against a decent team. They also have only lost 1 game, so that alone doesn't make them look average.

Clemson ‘s offensive line is average

That’s not accurate honky, Clemson has one of the best O-Lines in the nation. They returned all of their starters from last years NC O-Line except one. Did you not listen to Todd Blackledge’s commentary at all last night?

Go back and look at where the Bama player locked up the defender. Both hands were inside his shoulder pads. He was locked up maintained contact and didn’t pull him down.
He did use the Clemson player to knock another Clemson player down.
It’s called technique.

First.. realize he is an eligible receiver..

Then you have to answer: with the ball in the air is it legal for an eligible receiver to contact a defender, have both hands inside his shoulder pads, lock him up, and maintain contact?

It's a "technique" commonly known as pass interference

Not so sure about that. Contact was actually initiated behind the LOS and not downfield (which would be a foul). With his hands inside the pads, no one gets called for holding on that. Kind of like how blocking a screen pass might work. The Clemson defender just got manhandled back into the other defender.

Was there a flag? No. Then there was no interference. Maybe you should consider becoming a baseball fan if these trivial, inconsequential matters bother you.
