Anybody See The Bama O Lineman Cut Block?

[Toby Smart]

We can now put that excuse to bed

Clemson looks over matched at this point unfortunately. Offense can't move the ball and defensively AL has left some things wide open.

Still early. Do notice how aggressively Al rips at the ball.

 

[Telx1]

Frankly, really surprised by how passive Clemson looks on both sides of the ball.

 

[ftnfan62]

Hope Tony Jones Je has that size and speed next year like the Bama back

 

[TXNDFan88]

It is Bama and everyone else. Five NCs in the last 8 years. Just give me 1, just 1. I will not be selfish!

 

[impossibilityofreason1]

It is over until Saban leaves. Great recruiter and coach. He is the greatest college coach in my 35 years. Everyone else plays for 2nd.

Notice the Freshman Bama QB doesn't have that classic Deer in the headlights look ND QBs always have.

And he's had been lining up under the center

I hope Wimbush has the composure this dude is playing with ... he seems to exhibit a great temperament in what little film|interviews we get.

What does that have to do with ND? The Bama QB is a rare find. A true Freshman who is a coaches son playing for a title. Deer in the headlight look happens to many rookie QBs across the country. Is there a BK nitpick list that I am not aware of?

I don't believe that was a shot at Kelly as much as it was how poised the youngman is. Not everything is hateing on coach Kelly.

Guy needs some meds - heaven forbid you compliment a Bama player!

Hurts arrived in Tuscaloosa in the winter of 2015. Technically he's a freshman, but it's not as if he started at Alabama last summer.

He looks comfortable

 

[ftnfan62]

Making a game of it now. Just finally got the Bama QB in a pressure situation.

Renfroe is something.

Both teams are impressive.....good game!

He sure does.

 

[Telx1]

Surprised by these comments about Hurts. Less than fifty yards passing midway in third qtr. If ND QB had these stats, he'd be second guessed and highly criticized here.

He isn't being asked to throw it every down ..Bama has a nice power running game ......Clemson D is playing really well.

 

[ftnfan62]

Not being asked to throw at all because he is a runner.

Lots of helmet to helmet on Bama. No calls. Wonder why ND gets tossed constantly.

Not true
The criticism comes from turnovers more than anything, or not getting the play off in time.
Kizer was a good QB. I wish he stayed

Agree with the helmet hits - also when that dude hit Watson in the head with his arm.........68 yard td pass.....he can throw!

 

[ftnfan62]

Yea. Haha. I think my grandma makes that throw.

Bama looks like it has a well balanced offense

 

[BGI User 1596]

Sark looking healthy on the sidelines...hopefully his troubles are behind him.

Love the running game ...see how the back up RB does now. The QB hasn't really run much tonight......yet!

And still getting 5ypc

 

[ftnfan62]

New game.

 

[ftnfan62]

Pick play. Blatant. Good thing it was not an ACC ref there ala FSU. That was bad.

 

[BGI User 1596]

New game.

Was that the play we ran against FSU?

 

[ftnfan62]

Was that the play we ran against FSU?

No. Against FSU the CB engaged the ND receiver. An ACC ref buddy of mine said they reviewed that play as a team and said it should not have been called.

 

[BGI User 1596]

Clemson has hung tight ....Wats

No. Against FSU the CB engaged the ND receiver. An ACC ref buddy of mine said they reviewed that play as a team and said it should not have been called.

That was a shocker.....dam FSU!

The team needs to get their eyesight checked.

 

[Telx1]

Incredible back to back championship games. Feel fortunate to see and enjoy both. Love that the ACC asserts itself again.

That'll change when Kelly gets a hold of him.

Pretty much yeah. I started the thread with an observation about the Bama OL using the cut block and it wasn't too much longer that the ND QB play was brought up. I ended the discussion by mentioning that more rook QBs have that deer in the headlight look than not. What ND Freshman QB had that deer in the headlight look anyway? Who are we talking about and why is the guy who promised never to post here again still posting?
