Bama wins 24-6

This Clemson team would not have beaten the Buckeyes.

Yes they would.
Bama is a very very good team and are now at full strength. OSU fans were so butthurt about not making the playoff they forgot this. So now you are off of Bama and focusing on Clemson? Tigers would beat the Bucks by 7+ points.

We should be happy with 12-2, a Big 10 championship, plus beating Michigan and USC. It is all subjective, but my opinion is the Committee got it right in picking Alabama over Ohio State. There might be room for discussion for Ohio State over Clemson, but to me the Buckeye offensive woes disqualified them from consideration.

I agree Omega. Of course, you want your team to make the playoff. But I think we can live with a 12 win season, a conference championship and a Cotton Bowl win, plus a win over Michigan.

I figured Bammer would be a load, they had lots of time to heal up and get re energized. Saban is a master with time to prepare. This Clemson offense wasn't as good as last year, but they are not chopped liver either.

I'm very happy with this..... But the bama defense dominated for the most part and i believe osu would have did the same

Buckeye defense would have done the same thing. I'm not saying anything about Alabama being there over OSU. My comment was Clemson would not have beaten OSU like everyone was saying.
