    Congrats to MVP D.Watson and the Clemson Tigers. Always good to see Saban lose

    For real, it all started when he wanted to call Watson an RB. How many RBs do you know pass for 400 yards in two games against Nick Saban? I know QBs can't, so maybe that's the secret, just let RBs throw it, Saban can shut down QBs all day, but not an RB like Watson!

    Between this and his love affairs for Mallett/Osweiler, we now know that bobby's QB takes can never be taken seriously ever again.

    The most important thing here is that Watson said Vince Young was his hero

    I know Watson is headed to the NFL, but are Williams and Renfrow eligible too?

    Let's be real, when has anyone ever taken him seriously?
    Yep. Williams is actually the #1 rated WR. Probably a top 10 pick after this performance. 1st rounder for sure.

    Proud of my team. Obviously I hoped for a different outcome but we'll be back better and stronger next year!

    Just a few mins ago, Williams (accidently) revealed his plans by saying it was his last game. He tried to backtrack later about "making a decision" but oh well. He's a 1st rounder guaranteed.

    Renfro is a sophomore as is Deon Cain.

    I hope not. It's not good for college football to have the same team every year.

    I think Renfrew is a Sophomore.

    Not even close. It should be 16 teams. Would 2 or 4 be good enough for the NFL, with far fewer teams?

    That is largely because bowls have no meaning, unless you are a fan of one of the two teams playing. If those were replaced with games where the winner advanced, interest would increase dramatically.

    And no this wouldn't make the regular season meaningless. That's the dumbest argument in sports. Is the regular seaason meaningless in the NFL? March Madness is generally the example, but football will NEVER have 68 teams in the playoffs. It'seems also a much shorter season. Regular season would still determine who gets in, and seedings. With more teams in the playoffs, the regular seaason would become more important, not less.
