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

[bamacon]

I’m loving LSU wiping the smile off Lawrence’s smarmy face. Not so hot are ya?

Like when the marines cut down that big tree in Avatar

 

[bamacon]

I just don’t know if I can trust our defense. The tail end of this season, plus last season, has scarred me and we don’t seem to plan on doing anything different or have any players who can help outside Moses.

If our LB can stay healthy it’ll be night and day. Remember, Bama won a NC with DM as a 2nd game starter, true freshman, and roughly 5th string.

The look on Sunshinee's face...

Ed freaking Orgeron just won a NC. Holy crap.

You were saying?

 

[bamacon]

Clemson and Dabo have been humbled!!!

I guess the “Favor of God” took a detour.

 

[bamacon]

I'm staying up to listen to the interview with Dabo. I REALLY want to hear what he has to say. They got drummed in the second half. His defense got lit the hell up.

It’ll be on CBN

Hey coach aww shucks - HAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[Tenntiderman]

Herbie sure does love Clemson.

He has a connection to Clemson I read a few days ago.

It was funny seeing how petty Lawrence was after the game, not shaking hands with many and acting petulant. Karma paid him in full, and Oeaux will have his turn soon

Both of his twin sons play for Clemson.

Poor clempson. Their dynasty is over, right?

"A lot of teams have won one in a row."

"But they didn't have Sam Gilbert paying off every decent b-ball player in the country to come to UCLA."

Ya know, this is a unique moment in time.

Never in history has an SEC coach ridden an average to mediocre defense to a national championship on the arm of a phenomenal quarterback and questionable head coaching acumen.


Well.......not since Gene Chizik anyway..........

No, per rule it was targeting. Now there is a good debate as to whether or not it should be.

Yeah, there's no doubt it was targeting as called in today's game. I just think the rule is terrible because it only punishes the defense and is too punitive. I agree cheap shots should be penalized, but just hard hits should not, in my opinion. Clearly, many folks lean towards basketball on grass and 7 on 7 ball, which is fine. Two of the three playoff games had big moments in which targeting helped one offense and punished the other defense for a solid hit. It is what it is, as the saying goes.
I see LSU took the title. Burrow made some great plays in the face of some pressure. Congrats to the Tigahs.

I hope this opens the eyes of the committee. All conferences are not created equal and the ACC has regressed to where it was during the 60s and 70s. Clemson has no competition week in and week out, The ACC is not the only conference lacking the PAC 12 has sank to new lows that I think are historic. The Big 12 has also slipped. The Big Ten have been steady and probably OSU was hosed in the Clemson game with the targeting call. The SEC especially the SEC West have consistently held their own and are the standard for championships.

Clemson was an undefeated defending national champion.


Anyone here saying, "Clemson didn't belong in the playoff," better never complain about 1966.

Ever.

A great new dynasty is upon us. A pale rider that brings death and destruction. They will never lose again!!!!!

 

[RollTide_HTTR]

That was a fun game. I'm really glad LSU won and I was wrong about this game.

Trevor Lawrence had the worst game I've seen from him.

Burrow once again played lights out. Bengals fans probably feel great right now and they should

 

[RollTide_HTTR]

His kids are on the team aren't they? Or at least attend Clemson

 

[Bazza]

Congrats @LSUgrad2BamaDad - you had a great season with a great QB. Enjoy it!

 

[rolltide_21]

Ugh. That’s all I have to say about this.
