I noticed OSU held Clemson to fewer points than Bama did. I compared the Stats, attached is the result. In light yellow are the results that are almost equal. Third downs, Total yards, Time of Possession.

In Red, are the two areas where Clemson dominated in one game or the other. Versus Bama they threw a lot, while they ran a lot vs Ohio State.

Passing vs Clemson, was almost equal, but Bama ran pretty well against Clemson and of course Bama actually scored. Well, we "could've" had at least 6 points! ;-)

Question for the ADMIN, why doesn't Google Photos work with this site?

So, perhaps our Defense is better than Bama's. Either way, our pathetic passing game, mixed with too much option read and passes behind the line of scrimmage, we wouldn't have beaten Bama either.
