John from Riverside Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 And with the 10th pick in the 2017 NFL draft the Buffalo Bills take Deshaun Watson, Clemson. Has been my pick for a while now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 So this Watson guy is supposed to be better that Taylor? Not seeing it. Open your eyes maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolishDave Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 (edited) Open your eyes maybe? Watson is not better and it's not even close. Go back and watch some Tyrod college ball. If you think Tyrod is not good enough in the NFL, then this Watson kid is definitely not good enough. What a finish What a game. Yes. College football is awesome. So much more exciting than the NFL. Loved the option pass late in the game and I think there was a hook and ladder in there too. Almost never see those in the NFL. Wicked!

Wicked! yeah, its like both teams pulled out all the stops and went for it. Even when teams are driving for the win in a close game in the NFL you don't see the willingness to be creative and let the guys play like you do in college ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always pointed to the passion and emotion and how important each game is but you may be onto something. College football keeps me on the edge of my seat like nothing else.

I always pointed to the passion and emotion and how important each game is but you may be onto something. College football keeps me on the edge of my seat like nothing else. The college players are going out there and willing to die on the field every week. Even when Auburn sucks, they play like a top 10 team in the Iron Bowl every year. It's the fire. In the NFL, you only see that in the playoffs. The Jags don't get up to play spoiler versus Houston or play to the Pats level for 3 quarters.

USC was playing as well as anyone in the country late in the year but missed the playoff because of a couple of early mistakes. The season is on the line every week for someone. Oklahoma was out by week 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The edge of your seat must have gotten some time off when you missed the two semi-final games last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Quint Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 So Clemson hasnt punted/kicked off like that all year. Is Alabamas return team that good? Clemson seemed determined to not let them get a return in, regardless of the situation in the game. When they werent kicking out of bounds or short, the punter would get the ball, hold it for a second or take 5 steps and then kick to give his guys more time to get downfield. Pretty effective, as I dont think Bama returned one all game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 The edge of your seat must have gotten some time off when you missed the two semi-final games last week. Nope, my team was in the game (not competing but physically playing). We haven't seen a lot of great semi-final games yet (besides 'Bama - OSU) but they will come. We have seen at least 1 great game in each of the 3 playoff years; Bama has played in all 3. This year felt like it was building to yesterday's match-up. Next year, on paper, the talent should be spread a little more evenly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are supposed to be the best teams in the country at the end of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, he's a one read QB who is reliant on the system his team runs. Alabama plays against a bunch of conservative smash mouth SEC teams every week. The fast tempo and air attack of Clemson is something they couldn't deal with. Add Mike Williams who can dominant college defenses, and Watson has many advantages he won't have in the NFL. The idea of drafting Watson turns my stomach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are supposed to be the best teams in the country at the end of the year. Obviously, but if you were to ask the NCAA "has the playoff been a success" I think that the answer would be a resounding yes. It has made the entire season better. Oklahoma was eliminated after 2 weeks after being in it last year. The interest, not just in those 9 games but in the hundreds of games leading up to it has been why college football is working.

Kirby Jackson Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 (edited) USC/Penn State and Clemson/Bama > NFL season. NFL is just a bunch of confused refs and bogus flags You can throw Michigan - OSU, PSU - OSU, Michigan - FSU, Louisville - Clemson, UGA - UT, and a ton of other games in there as well. One more thing to add on the greatness of college football, next year Alabama is a 3-1 favorite. FSU is the 2nd choice at 7-1. Oklahoma, OSU and USC are tied for 3rd at 8-1. Alabama opens the year vs. FSU on September 2nd and OSU and Oklahoma play the next week on September 9th. 2 of the top 5 teams in Vegas can probably only sustain 1 more loss max and still make the playoff. That is pressure! Edited January 10, 2017 by Kirby Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
