I didn't mind that decision tbh. Bama proved they could run on Clemson and Saban didn't trust his defense and knew he'd have to outscore Clemson. Also, Bama's punter has been atrocious this year so no guarantee you even get that much of a field position flip.

I think barring injury next year we see these two again in the championship. Bama returns 9 starters on offense and 8 on defense plus will get 2-3 very high impact guys back from injury who they lost early this season on defense with Terrell Lewis who Bama thinks will be a lock top of the 1st round pick and Diggs at CB who would have been playing over Smith that was awful last night.

I actually ironically see some parrallels between Bama this year and what Clemson may look like next year. After Tua's debut against UGA everyone thought wow you have Tua and all these weapons on offense back they'll be unstoppable and will score enough to offset the impact of losing 8 starters on defense. This morning it's, Lawrence and that offense will be unstoppable and offset the loss of those Clemson defenders. My guess is Clemson puts on a show on offense next year.
