Yep... Evidently the replay officials did as well... Tough loss, and it would have been nice for a true freshman to be able to say he won the CFP, but not to be.
Maybe Tide will roll a little better next year. Lord knows they have plenty of talent.
And there was a ton of aggression on that field last night. I think Clemson was a bit overwhelmed by the passion of the first half.

That's the thing, ST,.....they DIDN't replay it, they didn't check it..the announcers alluded to that..saying they couldn't believe Alabama didn't challenge the spot.

As for Clemson being overwhelmed by the passion of the first half...I think Alabama just out muscled them the first half. The second half, Alabama lost their stud running back, which didn't help, and the offense was was not very potent, to say the least. Alabama's defense had to stay on the field, chasing Watson, defending against Clemson's passing game, and I think they just lost their intensity. They were tired, you could see it...and a maybe a little confused at times by Clemson's offense. It looked to me like Clemson wore them down.

I heard it was cloudy and gloomily all over alabamie all day today. However, from what I heard the sun was bright and enjoyable all around Tigger country.

Now it has been reported that Bo Scarbrough broke a bone in his leg when he was injured in the game last night. Hope he heals well and will be ready for next year.

kantwin, you are right of course. ...When I was playing, we lost a big, important game. I was down,... really, really down. My father took me out to eat afterward...We were sitting in the restaurant talking, and he looked at me and told me, "Son, I know that game was very, very important to you and your teammates, but the sun will come up tomorrow...and you will go on. It's going to be ok"......There was just something about the way he said it....I will always remember him telling me that.

You heard wrong.
Most people that I came in contact with were just fine. Because we know there will be other chances. And it won't be long before those chances are here.

Eight months is too long. Already starting to have withdrawal symptoms.
Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
