Yeah, pretty sweet.

Bridgewater is gonna put up huge numbers this year looking at their schedule. The only team on their schedule that's worth a crap is Cincy the last game of the year. He should be in the Heisman mix all year.

Don't know what you guys looked at with UGA. They played a very good Clemson team in Death Valley. Gurley was hurt most of the game with a thigh bruise. They still looked better than any other SEC team I watched outside of maybe LSU. But UGA looks good and that defense will only improve. They are very young but probably won't face a better offense all year.

I'm sorry, but their OL pass protection looked bad.

And Aaron Murray still does not impress me

Bridgewater is underrated, imo. I really like his game. He's accurate, has good pocket presence, can run, reads D's well, good at pump faking and looking off the safety, etc. He may be the first QB taken next year.

Seeing as pretty much everybody is projecting him to be the first QB taken next year it is kind of hard for him to be underrated. Agree with everything else though

I wish you guys would open your eyes. Bama scored 21 off of none offensive TDs. They wouldn't have stopped Clemson a lot either. I watched Thomas miss player after player. Looked as if he was playing scary too. There were many chances for him to scramble for big yards.

yup, Bama struggled to score against VA Tech's defense. only 2 offensive scores. Their Oline looked like garbage

EDIT: only 1 offensive score.

EDIT pt2,: i was right the first time. 2 offensive scores

I haven't paid attention to who's been projected to go where so I didnt really know that. Where's Boyd projected?

Bama's offense didn't impress me that much last night. Yeldon only ran for 70+ yards. McCarron barely threw for 100 yards.

I think Clemson would have made it a good game against Bama. McDowell ran very good for Clemson. Then you have Watkins on the outside to keep the defense honest.

The key group for Bama this year is their secondary. Ha-Ha Dix, Collins, Sunseri, and Fulton.

People think that new O-Line will be fixed overnight I see. Laughable to say the least. Can't wait for AtM to beat them in a couple of weeks. That defense isn't what people are building it up to be.

What CB in that group would stop Watkins? Bama doesn't have good pass rushers so would they Blitz and leave the backend on their own versus Peake and others? Would've been a thorough beating. That Clemson defense would've stopped Bama more than Bama would've stopped Clemson.

Bama's offense wasn't what people are making it seem like either. I hope A&M beats their azz but A&M's defense looked like crap yesterday. I know they had a few suspended. Hopefully they'll look better by the time bama goes to College Station

None of Bama's CBs could contain Watkins. They would need a Safety over the top. That would open up lanes for the other WRs and RBs.

Bama's defense is definitely not as strong as years past. You're right. They have no edge rusher that you have to account for every play. Their LB group is good but nothing to go crazy about. Mosley is a dynamic freak at LB.

Based off their performances last night, I would give the edge to Clemson.
