I’m expecting one heck of a game could go either way. Bama 45-38 Roll Tide
I say Saban has less than 5 years left maybe just 3. If I had to hire a replacement right now it would be Dabo. Only if Dabo brings his coaching staff . Saban can coach , Dabo can only hire coaches.

I am going to be pulling for Bama, but their defense couldn't stop Georgia or Oklahoma, and I think that has to be a concern. It was the offense that won those 2 games for them, and while I'm sure they can do it again, if you go to the well often enough, pretty soon you'll run out of water. Against Oklahoma their defense held the most prolific offense in college football to 16 points less than their average over the prior 13 games. In the first quarter Bama dominated OK about as badly as it's possible on both sides of the ball.

Clemson has a great team this year; but I don't think they beat Alabama.

Bama should win Nick sometimes makes mistakes in the big ones though. He made a mistake going prevent offense against OU and let them back in the game.

The difference between Clemson and OU are the head coaches. Oklahoma brought no intensity to the game until the second half. Their coach failed to instill intensity at the opening kickoff. Hence, Alabama brought intensity and dominated them. Clemson will have plenty of intensity at the opening whistle, so I expect a close game throughout, with Alabama prevailing in the end.

'Bama........................................ easily.
The Clemson QB is nowhere as good as the media has touted him, especially against the defense he will see tonight.

Rooting for Clemson; expecting Alabama.

As long as an SEC team wins the title......I guess this year it’s “BAMA”! memtb

Alabama!!!
Clemson’s girly looking freshman QB will get a quick education tonight on the finer points of falling on your ass with a big ass Bama lineman or LB on top of him.

I know nothing about either team, but I'll watch. Hopefully it'll be a competitive and entertaining game.

I coached for 15 years and I've been thinking about this one for over two months. I don't know why...I just think Clemson is going to win. I know Tua is good but Clemson's got a gun slinger too. powdr

Let the best team win.
Alabama is 2 deep in every position. Just like NDSU, a dynasty.
