Bama looks outclassed thus far. That said, they have created two turnovers. So that helps. But they really need to kick things up a notch on both offense and defense or Clemson will just end up outscoring them.

Clemson playing good with a lot of energy. Be interesting to see what happens once both teams get settled in and the big uglies in the trenches start deciding the game.

Renfrow can really catch the ball. Reminds me of our receivers.

So crooked with the time clock situation. Total BS there. Alabama getting calls and preferential treatment is on par with Duke basketball.

Can't believe you all root for these guys.

Does Coker not understand when a defender runs by him, he's coming back, wow, talk about slow a foot and slow thinking.

Apparently you missed he part where Lawson has lined up offsides at least 3-4x thus far this game......Herbstreit even remarked about it. The ref calls are not that one sided. You see what you want to see.

That was a chance at the endzone or to get the ball further. That was a major blunder by the officials that helped Bama.

You see what you want to see. Rooting for Alabama despite their fans and the conference. You'd see what they were like if they saw the Cats as any threat at all.

Very disappointed in Alabama...everytime they get a lead they immediately wilt on D and let Clemson tie it up.

And yes, I'm already giving Clemson a TD here.

You root for FSU. You are rooting for fellow ACC Clemson tonight. You are a hypocrite everytime you open your mouth.

Who's rooting for Bama? I'm not a fan of either school tonight. I just want to see a great NC game that's not a blowout. I don't have a bias.

So far that's what we're seeing. A good game. Sure, the clock management by the crew was horrible but it's a HUGE stretch to say that they are pandering to Bama. Like I've said, Clemson's had their share as well......like Lawson.

Herbstreit getting giddy about Bama holding call. Saying it's "the best tackle of the night for the Tide". I don't really care who wins, but I can't stand these talking heads that openly root against a certain team.

If nothing else, this game certainly shows what you can do with a fast, mobile quarterback, even against the best defenses

And I can't stand fans who can't see the forest for the trees.

Clemson is still gashing Bama's defense. So much for that 2nd half adjustment. If this continues, I think Clemson ends up winning. Bama can't get into an offensive shootout with this type of team and come out on top.

Starting to think Watson can win this thing by himself. If Bama loses, do we see threads on their board about Saban underachieving? Ridiculous yes, but they are the alter ego of UK basketball.....

This game shows how important it is for the QB to make decisions quickly. Whether it be throwing a pass to the correct receiver or when to take off running.

Great game. Watson is tough. Clemson has had the benefit of a couple of holds on those QB scrambles. Hopefully this back and forth keeps up. Agree with someone above, watching the main ESPN feed but it might as well be the Clemson feed.
