Championship

Clemson had 3 NFL first round DL that helped them beat Alabama.

Clelin Farrell, Christian Wilkins, DexterLawrence.

You need DL to have a chance.
 
Good call. He was like LeBron physicallly superior to our guys and that team had talent in the secondary.
We have seen some good wide receivers both on our teams (Harrison) and opponents. Sammy Watkins Clemson torched us, NC State Tory Holt, so many good Miami receivers, plus Larry Fitzgerald at Pitt.
 
Let’s be honest - they say a college team could never compete with an NFL squad. I have a hard time believing the Jets/Jags/Burrowless Bengals would blow the doors off Bama.
Define blow the doors off?

I don’t think Alabama could beat any NFL team. NFL coaches would expose the Alabama team.

Alabama is a special college team though.

Eric Decker was really good when we played Minnesota w/ Marrone
 
Gotta remember it's 20 year olds competing against ~30 year olds in the trenches in that type of game
Oh I get it. But, younger guys are more impactful now in the league than I ever remember.

I think they’d compete. But hey, I’m nothing if not impulsive and unrealistic.
 
only chance now is OSU gets a gift and 1 stop, I think they can score if they dont make mistakes.. should be 35-21 but still

42-3... domination.

I do think a game like that would be more competitive than most expect, but eventually the NFL guys would pull away by multiple scores. Similar to how Alabama plays against college football today lol.

Yeah I can see that then. I don’t this Alabama team would lose by 35+ against the worst NFL team but I wouldn’t pick them to win the game either.
Jacksonville would beat Alabama by multiple scores IMO.

Agreed. I’d live to see it in an exhibition style match. Will absolutely never happen though.
 
I’m not sure it’s hyperbole to say Tua had more talented skill guys at Bama than he does in Miami. Except now he’s going up against NFL defenses with the downgraded group of weapons.

Would Miami swap out their current group for Smith, Waddle, Ruggs, Jeudy, Jacobs, Najee, Damien Harris, Irv Smith?

In 4 seconds flat.
 
Just another example.. they run the RB in motion. the WRs block before the ball is caught and the ball is caught over the line but no call.. downfield 3 times on that one drive as well.
