Re: My point again...

First of all, welcome to the site. I've really enjoyed your posts that I've read. I see what you're saying about Clemson's defense, and I think that it is reasonable to assume that each team will score in the 20's. The two things that I believe people are overlooking about Alabama, is:

1. This is not Applewhite's offense.

and

2. Terry Grant at 100%.

I mean no disrespect to Major Applewhite; I believe that he will be a great offensive coordinator, but I see McElwain taking a different strategy. I see him using the 5 and 7 yard routes to get the ball into the hands of the speed players and turn them into big plays and Terry Grant is a great example of how he will do it. The fact that Grant was hurting during the second half of the season, I believe has caused people to forget just how fast he is. Give him 7 yards and he'll turn it into 70 in a heartbeat.

Still, I'm looking forward to a game that I believe will be a dogfight consisting of two teams with something to prove to the country, and getting the chance to prove it in primetime on a national stage.

Anyway, just wanted to welcome you and add my .02.

Now that I've gotten myself all pumped up I have to go tackle somebody.....
