Did they run the ball well those years? Outside of Watson scrambling?

ETA: They averaged 2.2 ypc in 2017 and that's taking into account Watson scrambling. He's averaged 2 ypc.


Just to let people know, he's talking about the single game not the entire year. Even with that said, Bama allowed one QB to post 460 total yards and 4 TDs.

Jalen being like 1/13 on 3rd downs and Alabama's defense playing 99 plays killed Alabama at the end. Clemson didn't have some amazing offensive performance until the very end of the game when Alabama's defense was dead.



Lol. Clemson averaged 81 plays, 504 yards, and 39 ppg that year. Clemson posted 91 plays, 511 yards, and 35 points vs Bama. They treated you like everybody else. If they couldn't run on you, they passed all over you.

The funny part is you believing it was your defense being tired that led to that. How about the fact that both Bama and Clemson kept the point totals within 10 points most of the game?

Bama's supposedly got this amazing depth, yet were "tired" at the end of a game that was evenly matched throughout? Clemson held the ball 17 minutes in the second half which is only a 4 minute difference in TOP.
