Re: CFP Semifinal | Sugar Bowl - #4 Alabama vs. #1 Clemson

I just want to know one thing: Are auburn fans gonna pull for the team that knocked them out of the CFP or the team that gave them every opportunity to get there?

Re: CFP Semifinal | Sugar Bowl - #4 Alabama vs. #1 Clemson

Clemson in this game this year was basically Ohio State last year but they made their FG’s.

In fact, OSU actually outgained them by 30 yards. If only for the freaking kicker we would’ve been on the board....

Bama is interesting. Their defense is legit, they have a great receiver, a really good o-line, and obviously they are well coached. They have a QB who makes a ton of plays, but you look at him and you keep thinking that if you can contain his legs then you can shut down their entire offense.

Jaylen has all the tools to be a great college QB but in my opinion what is holding him back is offensive coordinator Brian Daboll. His play calling is basic and predictable. I don't think his plays calls give Jaylen the best chance to succeed and honestly his play calling should have lost the Mississippi State game. I know each OC is different but if he ran an offensive similar to what Lane ran the year he had Blake Sims then was there then Jaylen's game would really go to another level.

I feel the same way about all of Alabama's running backs but specifically Damien Harris. My hot take is that if Harris played for a team like Auburn he would be a Heisman contender. Daboll is by far the worst OC that Alabama has had since Saban has been there and I'm really hoping he is gone next season.

Last night is what happens when Nick Saban has 30+ days to prepare for an opponent. Brutal...

An all SEC championship is pretty cool. It really hurts alot of the SEC haters though lol. Just listened to Kanell whine about it.

I really thought Oklahoma was gonna win it all though. So much for that.

This is why it is dumb to reward teams that don't win their division. Bama got extra rest and prep time. Pretty ridiculous. Regardless of how everything has gone their way and then some tonight they don't deserve to be here. There's a reason this sport is losing ratings and popularity.

You must be young. I'm mid 40s so I remember how championships were decided before the BCS. Not perfect but much better now. Also each generation is watching less and less coupled with cord cutting which is not good for college football imo.

I wish UCF would have gotten a chance but then again their non conference schedule was extremely questionable lol.
