One year wonders.

They will NOT repeat.

Will Dabo be dabbing at the end of the game? The Tigers have really nothing to lose since Alabama is the heavy favorite coming off a pummeling of the Huskies. If Clemson like Washington can start off with an initial td drive and trade blows with Alabama through the first half they have a chance at the upset.

Coach Saban had led the tide to a possible 6th championship. Hope Saban doesn't blow a gasket in the process (pretty intense )

Wrong.

Alabama only opened up at -6 points.

Indeed - but read what I said If Clemson was all O without a very good D, that would be one thing. However, their D is quite good. It comes down to whose D does the better job... Jalen's play will be key.

I disagree with the last part. Jalen's play will not be key. He's still young. They have a big RB that just went over 180 yards last week.

Run him, play D, keep Clemson offense on the sideline.

If I thought of it, you know Saban thought of it.

You arbitrarily dismiss Dabo and Clemson's run D... taking it for granted that they will be able to run regardless of what Clemson does or how Jalen plays... and taking it for granted that they can win solely by running.

You also dismiss that last year they (Bama) had another very good big back (Henry) who put up over 150 yards on Clemson, yet Clemson put up the points. Yes, Bama's D is better this year - but so is Clemson's team.
