Game Thread: CFP NCG: LSU vs Clemson (7pm CST | ESPN)

[RammerJammer14]

Yeah, supposedly still does an insane number of situps/pushups every day.

Wasn’t he doing some UFC fighting or some nonsense a couple years ago? At the age of like 60 or something

 

[imauafan]

Those are all great players but Derrick Thomas was as dominant of a player as I've every seen. DT should have been in the top 10.

 

[Probius]

If I had to pick an All-Time #1 RB for College and Pros it would be hard to not pick Barry Sanders.

For those who never saw him in Detroit he had GARBAGE O-Lines and DOMINATED anyway,

Definitely. There were so many times in Sanders' career where there were defenders in the backfield the moment he touched the ball, yet he would run circles around them for a big gain.

 

[BamaNation]

Hard for me to say but with years of perspective now in hand, I could watch Bo, Jim Brown, Barry Sanders, and Herschel Walker highlight reels all day long.

 

[Go Bama]

Jail break

 

[RTR2u]

Burrow still feeling that hit from earlier.

 

[teamplayer]

The funny thing, while some of the Clemson fans were complaining about the refs, they were knocking Bama fans for complaining . Especially about the out of bounds play! Were they similar?

Hahahaha, that is also typical. We laugh about others complaining about officiating while we are in the process of complaining about officiating. We've made fun of Texas for talking about Colt getting hurt for years, but then we talk about what if Tua hadn't been injured. No fan likes to lose, so we make excuses. For some, it beats just admitting that we got beat. We don't like swallowing that bitter pill. Anyway, here we are back for the second half. I didn't expect to be here, but I had another drink instead of heading upstairs. Woohoo! I guess it's a party night on Monday. Hahaha.

Man, Venables has a huge sack of balls. He sold out on that blitz. If there would have been a clog up in the line they were dead in the water.

 

[RammerJammer14]

Wow Burrow just accepted that sack before it ever got to him. Round 1 win to Clemson.

 

[rgw]

Burrow caved there. Big warning sign that he’s actually injured. His ability to tank a hit from an unblocked when they release every eligible is a huge part of their offense

 

[bamaga]

Just watched my first and only series of the game, it looks boring. 3 and out LSU

 

[BamaFanInTally]

Hoping for a 38-38 tie with 2 min to go in the 4h qtr, and a massive power outage in the dome that lasts all night.

 

[teamplayer]

That is how you have to hit these receivers in these offenses. It isn't cheap or dirty, but it makes them pay a price.

 

[USCBAMA]

What’s ncaa record for 15 yardpenalties in a bowl game?

 

[teamplayer]

Chaison was being tackled, but the offense got the call.

 

[Bamabuzzard]

One thing is for sure. To stop either of these type offenses you HAVE to be able to make constant adjustments on the fly.

 

[TideEngineer08]

Man, Venables has a huge sack of balls. He sold out on that blitz. If there would have been a clog up in the line they were dead in the water.

Its their only chance

 

[RammerJammer14]

Hoping for a 38-38 tie with 2 min to go in the 4h qtr, and a massive power outlet in the dome that lasts all night.

If it’s tied 38-38, I still want Clemson to lose with one second left on a pick play.

 

[crimson fan man]

Another 15 yard penalty on lsu. Clemson will score on penalties.

 

[bamaga]

I watched Finebaum at halftime, and they said Burrow wasnt in the locker room with the team very long at halftime. They showed him on the bike. Is he injured?
