From the article:
"But Clemson offers two 1,000-yard rushers in Wayne Gallman (1,482) and Deshaun Watson (1,032). When a team can put two of the ACC’s top 10 rushers on the field at once, it can provide a look Alabama might have trouble with. Take into account Watson gained his yardage from the quarterback position, and that adds another unique wrinkle."

I think we've seen something similar in the Vols:
RB Jalen Hurd - 1,288 yards
QB Josh Dobbs - 671 yards
Unless we are playing with more than 1 ball.....having 2 over 1,000 is no different than 1 with 2,000 yards.....

Gallman ran hard against OU but he doesn't remind me of Hurd. Not as scary. Plus Bama D ain't OU D.

Bama players are probably too focus on what they want to accommodate listed to be annoyed about what another team player has to say.

Clemson may be #1 but there is a reason why bama is favored. Bama gets the benefit of the death but, Clemson hasn't earn that. Less talking from a problem the the term "Clemsoning" to the world.

The position where clemson could give Bama problems is at qb, Watson is the real deal. Watson's speed is deceptive. He has long strides and doesn’t look fast but has what I call game speed (fast in pads). Oklahoma arrogantly refused to shadow him and he had 100 yards rushing in the first quarter. I doubt Saban makes the same mistake with OU film to watch.

We could have beaten MSU running the ball. That has been lost. That you can simply shut down our running game, you cannot. We would not have beaten them 38-0, but we would have still won. We can run it down their throats and still beat them by 7.

Who would be our best spy? Ragland Hamilton or Foster.. I heard Hamilton and that's why he got more snaps lately but wasn't sure

Didn't the MSU OL say something similar before the Cotton Bowl?
Yes and both teams were/are trying to convince themselves they can win the battle/game. It is a defeatist comment IMO. I love seeing these type of comments since it gets our guys attention but also shows the opponents mindset.

Did this lineman break out of the dorm and call a press conference? Dabo better sit on these guys the rest of the week. This is probably going to be a textbook case of letting your mouth overload your rear end.
