You don't want to be Cardale Jones'd. That's probably why so many Buckeyes went pro. Cardale went from a 1st or 2nd rounder to a 6th to undrafted.

Heisman candidate tho.

 

[The Derski]

The heisman race next season should be a good one between McCaffrey and Watson.

Spoiler

and whoever is RB for Alabama

The only Heisman candidate at OSU this year had his chances crushed the Saturday before thanksgiving.

Very deserving.

 

[4down20]

Eddie Jackson got it for the defensive side. I supposed for the interception.

 

[theSabanator20]

3 NCs.. and this one is questionable, fucktard.

I don't care about saban.. I just can't stand bama fans.

Funny how they didn't waste a second reviewing that one, but took 5 minutes to finally call that run a TD. More sec favoritism.

A super close game where bama got all the calls/help at the end. nope. I haven't been able to stand bama since they got that rematch against LSU for the NC.

They were waiting to hear from someone upstairs so there would be no question. Only the sec would get that kind of preferential treatment.

Whine more, bitch.

 

[cwerph]

Congrats, Bama. Sounds like it was an exciting second half.

And, I won my Pick'em!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was easily the most back and forth game I've watched Alabama play in since Alabama-Georgia for the SEC title in 2012. Wasn't calling the win until we kneeled it.

I haven't bothered to look, but I sure hope next years playoffs go through the Sugar.

Buncha greedy Bammers

Stupid late Monday games ... got to sleep sometime around 0100, and up four hours later.

Dang, I'm getting too old for this.

I'm not working but I still had to get up to get the boy to school. Gonna be an ass dragging kinda day.

 

[redseat]

Guess I should have stayed up to watch huh?

say the 1st half.. Watson's pick turned things around for Bama imo.

 

[RobToxin]

Only real negative about that game is that someone had to lose.

 

[redseat]

I am not flipping through 102 pages to see if this has already been addressed or not but did they ever explain why at the end of the half they ran the clock after the 1st down.. They had 12 seconds and it ran and forced Clemson to use their final time out and it only put 9 seconds on the clock and they missed a FG... That along with Watson's interception turned the game

Yeah, I like Clemson, and I like their coach. Figured if Bama had to lose to somebody, better to Clemson than most others. Was sweet to see them improvise and pull off the win though. Truly two well-matched teams.

...because SEC. Like I said at the time... it's hard to argue against conspiracy when you see such a normal, simple every-game thing like this get fucked up IN THE FAVOR of one team. Clock stops on a 1st down [which it did 2 seconds too late], then inexplicably it starts rolling again before the ump [I believe that is who does it] winds the clock. Inexplicable.

But at least Texas had a stellar season






.... so, there's that.
