I haven't seen Clemson enough to have a good feel for how this will go tonight. My head says Bama wins easily, but I'm nervous and wondering if Clemson may be better than I realize. My best guess is Clemson makes a game of it for 3 quarters and then Bama puts them away, but I wouldn't be shocked if Clemson just outplays us and wins, or if Bama blows them out by 25 or more points.

What do we have against Clemson? It's to our benefit for the ACC to take it.

My argument for Bama: They're already loaded in recruiting and winning/losing doesn't change that. If they lose, Saban might be more likely to leave. Also, I don't want Clemson to become even more of a recruiting powerhouse.

For Clemson: ACC, so I guess that's cool. That's honestly about it.

Henry 50 yd TD run. A prop bet winner, closing out several others.

Was tied up, but earlier got down just one bet: First score UNDER 49.5 yards......Then tried to bet before KO, but was a minute late.

So the first TD is 50 yards and I lose my only v-bet by half a yard -- lmao at me. So now I watch just for fun.

Anybody want to lay off some action?

Let's see how many time Lawson lines up in the natural zone without getting called this series.

Alabama's DB coach needs to be fired, the guy never even made a play on the ball. Burned by a walk-on.

Every SEC championship hurts our recruiting. The narrative is now "no one outside the SEC can win consistently." FSU and OSU broke that a little bit, but more damage needs to be done. Further, we are hampered by the perception that the ACC is weak. Another ACC championship would demonstrate that the ACC isn't as weak as some think, improving our SoS in future years.

The playmakers on these teams are on another level. Kind of depressing to watch.

No question that an ACC win helps ND more than a Bama win, my dislike for Dabo Swinney's histrionics aside.

Go Clemson! God Alabama just makes me sick. I hate that program.

I'm tired of seeing them dominate recruiting and using this run as an argument for the being a better program all-time than ND. This is an epic run, but the Irish are still better all-time.

You're forgetting the Bama national title in 1973.

This is great. I can hear the pounding on the trailer walls from here.
