1) Coach Saban been doin dirt since day 1 in Tuscaloosa. Of course he got 12 wins in year 2, and a chip in his 3rd.
Ohio State got a chip, and beat Bama. I'll give you that. But do you honestly think they would've beaten Bama more than twice in 10 tries? They happened to play better THAT day.
Clemson is a mini Bama in the making. Doing hella dirt. Which was confirmed by Rashan Gary's momma. There was a reason Clemson jumped in at the 11th hour for Gary. It's because word got around that he was offered 250k to head to Death Valley. But momma Gary don't do dirt, so he committed to UM and momma Gary spilled the beans.
Stanford?
Oklahoma?
FSU?
Those schools have been afterthoughts since Saban came to Bama. It's literally been Bama, and any random team that has a good season.
