    Too much experience on Bama's side.

    That Rose Bowl game was 38-26 at nearly the same time as well. Let's see if Deshaun and Clemson can channel their inner VY and Texas.

    Watson is good, but he is no Vince Young. Young was just a little bit faster, more accurate, and had better targets than Watson.

    Too early to go for two or no?

    Ehh I guess?

    Either way had to drive the length of the field to tie/win.

    Hope Watson gets one more chance.

    Clemson deserves to win this game. Alabama got incredibly lucky on all their scores.

    Are we really going to go that route? Saying luck was why they scored 38 so far? C'mon man.

    Course not. VY was one of the greatest college players. I'm a Longhorn, so I could never say Watson was better, but they have similar skillsets.

    This game and score is getting awfully similar though...

    Luck is a part of the game. Whoever wins, earned it.

    Looks like Bama is about to get more "luck"

    Big man TE O.J. Howard shouldn't move that fast. :eek:

    Looking grim for Clemson.

    If Watson runs it in on 4th down and then Clemson converts 2, Texas should sue lol

    I was bout to say it was impossible Bama would get a FG, 2 first downs ended it, therefore go for 2, but here we are.

    Clemson should sell out on the run. This is the game.

    Clemson holds them, it's 4th and 2, Saban decides to go for it, and...

    The rest is history. :eek:
