Not able to watch the game yet. How are the two teams playing? Is it as close as the score suggests? Who do you like in the second half?

Both defenses are smothering.

Bama cannot throw the ball
Clemson cannot run the ball.

The difference is probably a dumbass 4th and 1 call around midfield by Dabo Swinney

Isn't this the first big game alabama opponent hasn't handed them a 2 score lead off of a turnover. Freshman qb pretty comfortable when he's got a 10-14 lead at the half every game. This might be first pressure he's faced all year.

Lots of football left in this game. Need to hold them to a three and out to start the third quarter and then drive down the field and score a TD

Cmon, halftime adjustments!

Overall, the first half went about like the stat lines predicted.

Fucking toss to the right, awful call.

Watson on pace for 306 yards.

The worst part of this game being 14-7 at half is that I have to watch the second half until Alabama runs away with it.

Second half is where Bama makes their living, Clemson seems to be hanging on for dear life. I don't know seems really one sided despite the score.

Clemson also known for their second half's (sounds weird saying that lol). It's gonna be fun.

Stuffed. Led to 6 points, could be a tied game if they punted.

Yeah, who doesn't want the last college football game of the year to be a blowout that you can turn off early?

 

[The Derski]

I told you that ref was straight jacked.

Thanks! I'm trying to figure out how I should feel about the money line bet that I put down on Clemson when they were down 7-0. Only $50, so no big deal, but it would be nice to win.

I'd like that much better... I'm sure he is totally second guessing himself
