RandomFan 9,171 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 The big game is only 3 days away, let's get this party started. If you're so inclined to burn an hour, here is a preview of the game from the College Football Nerds. Their picks are both for Bama, 42-24 and 40-24, and that Oklahoma was a tougher matchup for them than Clemson. Link to post Share on other sites
mqg96 2,272 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Not watching. Goodbye college football until August 2019. I refuse to watch the Tide win an 18th national championship or Clemson win 2 over 3 against the team we can't beat and yet have another rival have one more national title than us.

Unknøwn 12,994 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Itll be interesting but I think Tua comes up big and Lawrence makes some mistakes which will be the difference. Link to post Share on other sites
putnam6 4,888 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I dont know how you can bet against Bama,Ill watch but I aint stoked to watch like I used to be watching a Natty. Link to post Share on other sites

Carter 22,781 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Not gonna be close. But of course I am going to watch. Last college football game at all for 8 months. I don’t give two craps about the NFL playoffs this year unless we get Bears or Rams vs KC. Link to post Share on other sites
BamaBirdLady 1,002 Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 I'm glad you all are confident in a Bama win. I am so nervous! Clemson has an awesome defense and their OL is just as good. If we can get pressure on Lawrence, I think that will be the difference. Also, our OL needs to stand up against their DL. As you all know, GA was able to disrupt Tua so much and knocked him out. If they get to him like you guys did, I don't have a good feeling. But, Roll Tide anyway! Link to post Share on other sites

Bama has already played a tougher opponent in Oklahoma. And they played a tougher opponent than Oklahoma in Georgia. This will only be their 3rd most difficult game of the season; they have no business losing this game. Link to post Share on other sites

youngbloodz 14,700 Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Lawrence is going to light up that defense. Question is will he make key mistakes. Clemson goes into the 4th with the lead. I just don't know if they can hold it. Dabo is my favorite college coach so I'm pulling for him. And Joey King is a personal friend so I'm hoping Lawrence can get it done Link to post Share on other sites

youngbloodz 14,700 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Since Bama is adding titles I will too: everyone knows if Miami gets in the BCS game against Oklahoma in 2000 we would have skull crushed them. They beat FSU 13-6 I believe. We beat then number 1 FSU 27-21. Yeah we lost to Washington but if we had 3 more minutes we would have won. 2002: I don't even need to talk about this bs and how we got robbed by the refs. 7 time world championships Miami Hurricanes Link to post Share on other sites

AutumnEffect 938 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Some of you might think less of me for this, but I've never watched one of these (now traditional) Bama vs Clemson championship games, and I don't plan on changing that tonight. It's definitely immature of me, but I just get too disgusted to watch. Do I suck? Link to post Share on other sites
