The good news is that the Evil Empire was defeated tonight. Not just defeated, but bullied and humiliated. Alabama was outclassed on offense, on defense and in coaching. It gives the rest of the college world hope.
The bad news the Evil Empire Jr. prevailed tonight. This is looking like the Celtics and Lakers rivalry of the 1980s. Can anyone break their stronghold? Certainly nobody came close this year as the other 2 semi-finalists were pummeled by these two. The only consolation is that Lakers and Celtics did fall from the top eventually. But of course Alabama and Clemson do not have to draft last like the NBA champions had to do. They get the top drafts (5 stars recruits) year after year. So it maybe a few years before these two leave the top of the college football ranks.

I didn't get to watch much of the game. But every time I turned it on, Alabama was down further than the previous time. To be honest, I thought for sure Alabama would win since they looked better most of the year and had more experience at QB. But the freshman QB for Clemson looked great and defense wins games. It'll be interesting to see if anyone can knock off these two teams, but for now, they look like they will be right back there next year unless injuries happen.
ReplyDeleteSweeney seems like a pretty cool guy. He's different from Saban, so I wonder if we'll see more 5 star recruits head to Clemson instead of Alabama. Of course Alabama will still get its share of 5 stars, but if I'm a recruit, I think I'd rather play for Sweeney than Saban.
Sweeney is pretty young too, so we might be seeing a dynasty in the making at Clemson, unless he leaves. Clemson will have to shell out a ton of money, but it'll probably be worth it. The rich get richer.
