    I don't think Alabama defense gonna dominate this game. Good quarterbacks for years have put up points against Alabama defense.

    Alabama won last year from special teams. I got clemson winning

    I stand correct. People overate the alabama defense. Once again another qb with weapons beat a Saban Alabama defense.

    Cam Newton and Auburn
    Chad Kelly and Ole Miss
    Johnny Manziel and TAMU
    Deshaun Watson and Clemson

    ? .

    You just dropped two Heisman winners and a 2-time heisman runner up like that suppose to mean something.

    And if LSU had competent QB play yall wouldn't get sonned every year by Bama

    All of'em were/are mobile too! But those names ain't to shabby either. lol


    Saban's defenses as a COLLECTIVE are always really good/really damn good b/c the front end works well w/ the back end, but one thing they've never really had (IMO) are fast/speedy Linebackers. They're built to stop the run 1st and are taught/coached very well all around, but I've never seen him have that one LB or (or DE for that matter) that just wrecked shop on QB's all seasin long with pure speed.

    To me he recruits scheme specific and that affects why I think they have trouble with mobile QB's.

    This year our LBs as a collective are much faster and more athletic. Tim Williams, Rueben Foster and Rahsaan Evans are all under 240 I believe. Foster actually dropped weight in the offseason

    IMO you can't really overrate a defense that causes turnovers and scores points. Our D scored 12 or 13 TDs Watson just showed why he is the best player in CFB. He should have won the Heisman.

    Overall tho as far as this game both teams played well. Somebody had to take the L. It just ended up being us

    Oh I agree that this is prolly the fastest LB core y'all have had and they ball! But for Bama to be Bama, u guys just haven't that one LB/DE dude who scares the hell out of offenses w/ his speed. It's the way Nick recruits tho.


    Deshaun had a great season, but he had 17 picks!... Lamar deserved that trophy, that nikka had 3500+ pass and 1500+ rush w/ 51 td's. <<
    That ? is phuckin' ridiculous!

    It is what it is.
    Three straight CFP appearances, 2 straight Bowl wins, three straight SEC titles, a national title, two straight CFP championship game appearances, three different starting QB's, a Heisman trophy winner, lost the first CFP semifinal by 6 points and lost the national title tonight by 4 points.
    Not too many teams can say they did that in 3 years, proud of our boys they played their hearts out and it literally took Clemson to win it at the last second to beat us.
    It's Still Roll Tide!
