The ESPN crew essentially said this was just a gold old fashioned firing, and not anything else.

Laney being Laney.

Buses left without him after Peach Bowl win.

Is it wrong that I'm hoping Joe Mixon gets speared in the back of the helmet?

I'm an Oklahoma alum, and I can't stand watching the guy play. Even more sickening was hearing Brent Musberger taking up for him.

Wanted for Rose Bowl.....defense.

Heck of a game, congrats USC!   Feels good to be back in familiar territory.

Oh, and tonight's prediction:   Alabama 31 Clemson 17

Clemson was the only team I didn't want to see in the finals vs Bama.

Pretty Damn good game. 

[Blarg]

Tide rolled. 

[Docwaukee]

what a game.  wow.  

[Blarg]

I thought Clemson was going to blow it when they used almost the entire clock to call one play in the last drive, potentially leaving their field goal kicker in NFL range, not college.

Nice that the ACC has bragging rights over the SEC this year.  Happy for Coach Swinney who seems like a good dude that really loves his players.  This game and Clemson-Louisville were the two best college games of the year.

[Tank]

That was a great fourth quarter. Good to see an SEC team go down.

[Angel Oracle]

It is good to see Mr. "I will not now nor will ever be the Alabama football coach" be beaten with one second left, just like being beaten on the 108 yard return of the missed FG a few years back that cost them a title game appearance.

alabama would have won if they had kept their last offensive coordinator.

I disagree. They scored 31 points vs Clemson who just shut out Ohio state. 

Hurts was awful. He only throws it to guys who are wide open. He's not accurate, can't fit the. ball in tight windows. He needs to train with young dick hammer this offseason. They loss their hot hand at running back as well. 

Bama defense gave up 21 points in the 4th when they gave 32 total points in the 4th all season before that. Saban's defense lost it iyam. 

watson played phenomenal. If he falls to 13 I hope my cardinals take him. Best QB I've seen all season. Love dabo as well. Happy for Clemson.

i was being sarcastic.

laney put up 24 pts on 2 offensive touchdowns vs Washington, who went into the game allowing 17.2 pts/gm.

sark put up 35 pts on 4 offensive touchdowns vs Clemson, who went into the game allowing 17 pts/gm.

laney had Scarborough for the entire game. sark did not.

and let us not forget...

Hurts was a true freshman. He has some time to develop. Taking a team to the national title game and coming within one second of winning it was not a bad start.
