CFP National Championship: #11 Ohio State vs #1 Alabama

[Yappi]

The most obvious targetting I've ever seen.

 

[McMurphy]

Dumb play by Battle. Thanks

First decent hit of the game I like it. F that rule

 

[Stirred not Shaken]

Dumb play by Battle. Thanks

Wish the player would not get kicked out.

Almost impossible to be good defensively against modern offensive concepts that stretch all dimensions of the field when you can't hit on the back end like that.

 

[Crusaders]

Had him Fields. You had him

 

[eastisbest]

been nice if stripes had called the one committed against Serman.

 

[Orin Swift]

Coincidentally, Battle flipped late in the process from OSU to Bama.

 

[Crusaders]

Idk if I’ve seen targeting called on a run play

 

[Omar]

That was a PI on 3rd & Goal

 

[EagleGuy]

If Bama scores here, gets the ball back at the beginning of the second half.....

Need to hold them to a FG at worst.

 

[Crusaders]

Not great. Bama could have possessions before the Bucks get the ball again. Defense needs to make another play in a big way

 

[Omar]

For non QBs? I have not.

 

[McMurphy]

Fair catches on deep kickoffs. That is lame also

 

[Orin Swift]

Let’s see if the Bucks cover Smith or learn how to tackle Najee this series

Tackle low then

Nope

 

[Crusaders]

Pretty weak PI

 

[Orin Swift]

Nope

nope, did neither. Not sure what Coombs is doing

 

[Crusaders]

Well at least they left time for a response

 

[Omar]

OSU needs at least a FG to keep it a 1 score game before half.

 

[nwwarrior09]

Ohio State can't guard these guys in any coverage.

 

[Yappi]

It's just amazing how open Smith is all game.

 

[Omar]

Ohio State can't guard these guys in any coverage.

As I’ve said many times, nobody can. I know they got burned for a TD on that Screen, but you’ve got to stay aggressive and keep Blitzing. It’s the only way to throw Bama out of sync.

 

[Raider6309]

Smith is just on another level. Looks silly how much better he is than OSU's defense

 

[Stirred not Shaken]

Either that or only rush 3.

 

[Crusaders]

Drive is probably game

 

[Omar]

A TD and it’s game over.

 

[Omar]

Either that or only rush 3.

Then they’ll get killed by Harris on the ground.

 

[nwwarrior09]

Big time block in the back on the punt return.

OSU has to get a stop here or it's pretty much over.

 

[Stirred not Shaken]

Fields needs to play lights out in the 2nd half to keep this close.
