Should at least revote to give the Heisman to Watson..he's been a warrior

What happened to the art of the onside kick - am I misremembering or did guys 20 years ago get that 2nd hop pretty frequently?

 
Blown coverages by Clemson will haunt them.
And special teams. Blocked FG which honestly at this point would have allowed them to try and tie it now (they kick XP). Onside kick was followed by long TE TD. Missed chance to down a punt at the 1 allowed Bama to not play conservative and maybe not get a first down on a long FG drive (followed by onside kick) or just stall without a FG/miss it. And of course, terrible coverage for a long TD return when it seemed like they had the returner bottled up. That missed tackle on the kickoff return TD was as bad as the missed tackle on the long TE reception to seal the game, could have been 3rd and 12 if the tackle is made.

Just so many bad plays for Clemson that cost them the game. They'll be haunted by those 6-8 atrocious plays for a long time.

 
Is there any talk of Watson going pro this year? I'm probably overreacting based on one performance, but he looked plenty ready. He's got every tool and made some great throws into some NFL tight windows.

 
Hell of a game by both sides. The onside kick was the difference.
Funny thing was the miss by the punt coverage on the FG drive right before the onside kick. Great punt and the coverage player slowed down waiting for the bounce and let the low bounce skip by him instead of keeping going and getting in front of it. Bama has the ball at the one, they might not get a FG and might not have a chance at the onside kick. Funny how small little bounces may have changed the game. Well that and the invisible TE and kick returner!
