I feel better this morning, hopefully I'm on the road to recovery. It's been a long 16 weeks but should be back on the road in 5-6 weeks. Thanks for asking.
I am a company man, and even thou it pains me to do so, I'll pull for the ACC team.
Bama is the strongest team out there. Nobody is going to run over them. The best team that money can buy.
Clemson wins!
Clemson wins!
Looks like Bama opened by 7 for the natty. I like Clemson's odds of beating that spread. Clemson is just as well coached if not better and nearly if not just as talented in the 2-deep at every position. As good as Bama's d is I can't just can't see them shutting down the Tigers' offense. Clemson 33-17 is my prediction.
Good post SBW. I hope you are right. Bama's lines are scary good. I'm with you betting on the O for Clemson. Bama's O looked pretty good in the MSU game . MSU has a very good D too.
I'll root the whole way for Clemson but the Alabama defense, in my opinion, will be too strong. I don't think Clemson will be able to run on them. Unfortunately I see the score opposite of you - Alabama 35-17.
This has been the worst year to watch bowl games I have ever seen. Every game seems like a blow out.
Bama by > 2 TDs.
Something like 28-7, Tide.
Tackles on O & D are great.
Henry will be running downhill in 4th qtr.
Clemson has played 5 top 20 defenses and ran for over 100 yds on every one of them including the #1 and #6 rush defenses in the nation. . #1, #11, #14, #16, and #19 over defenses. Some might say App St at #11 shouldn't count, but they held Clemson to 144 yds on 44 carries, 3.2 ypc while Clemson ran for 312 against Oklahoma.
If Bama can shut down their run, of course they'll likely win, but this Clemson team has beaten some good teams this year. Two 1000 yd rushers with 12 td each, one of them also passed for 31/12 td/int and that will be the key to this game, Watson's threat to run opening his wrs. Again, this is all jmo.
I hope Bama wins, then I can taunt some local naysayers. I know a couple that will get Bama decals on their vehicles.
I hate SEC, but look at their record this bowl season and based on that, you have to admit that they are the best conference and Bama played the toughest schedule.
