CFB Chalkboard

I wrote about the good, the bad, and the ugly of Josh Allen: The Draft's most polarizing prospect diehards.com/national/film-…

Comparing Baker Mayfield to Johnny Manziel is lazy. They are demonstrably different players diehards.com/oklahoma/film-…

Tremaine Edmunds is such an interesting study. There's so much up-and-down snap to snap. I think he can be a star in a Jamie Collins-like New England role. He needs a system with a bunch of "rat" assignments where he can roam and be instinctive

Some of Will Grier's throws are laugh out loud funny. They're bonkers. No way he should complete this ball:

This is the greatest football coach to ever live

Coaches got paid. Sponsor got paid. NCAA got paid. Schools got paid. Player who sustained career ending, life altering, neck injury received nothing. twitter.com/brucefeldmancf…

Here's a great example of Georgia's Rip/Liz Match coverage (I wrote about it in more detail this season dawgnation.com/football/film-…). Watch the team switch the rotation as the SOF changes. Build an 8-man wall against the run, match patterns against any vertical release

I don't want to indulge in hyperbole, but Ohio State's Dre'Mont Jones (#86) may be the greatest athlete in human history. Guys that size aren't supposed to move that way.

Alabama knew exactly what Clemson was running in the Sugar Bowl, particularly in the run-game. The key: Track the sniffer!!!!

Quenton Nelson is so frigging good: Drop anchor, inside hands, stonewall the rusher.

Saban should follow the Mike Gundy philosophy. There are great coaches at all levels, go find a guy who will be there a couple of years and fits your ethos. The OC only needs to be there on Saturdays; the other stuff takes care of itself. espn.co.uk/college-footba…

Chris Weinke in as Alabama's new OC?

Jeff Banks (@jbsttamu) is one of the best special teams coaches around. Alabama got a great one. The rich get richer.

Jarrett Stidham, Drew Lock, Austin Allen, and Tua all make an appearance here — but it’s Rosen, Mayfield, and Jackson who take home most of the hardware twitter.com/ollieconnolly/…

This post-game interview is cutting into Saban’s recruiting time. He wants out of there.

This is just the start of what will be an all-time legend. twitter.com/ollieconnolly/…

That would be Roquon Smith. twitter.com/MattHayesCFB/s…

Alabama has been stunningly ill-disciplined tonight

This doesn’t appear to be part of the process.

Bama MUST get a TD on this drive
