Thinking..if Bama's defender "had" been called for holding Scott on last Crush play
May 22, 2017, 2:06 PM
|
|
As I've read they wanted to happen, so to make ref stop game, call a penalty & Tigers would have to call another play but with time down to 3-5 seconds at most Clemson might have had to go for tying FG.
Any thoughts?

OK, but how bout both our players being thrown to ground

And no TD but double penalties on them with only seconds to go?
Of course, catching Hunter to foul him would have been fun to watch!

Game cannot end on a defensive penalty. We'd have been given an untimed down if the clock had run out.
So happy we got it done without needing that.
I was surprised the refs didn't review the spot of the Mike Williams PI call that put the ball on the 2. It seems the first contact on that play was outside the end zone.

The spot on the PI was irrelevant. They called PI in the end zone and gave us he ball at the 2. The correct call should have been PI at THE 2. It's a spot foul at that point. Same result.
And same result at the end...we win !

well, that's exactly what Bama did on the next-to-last play
May 22, 2017, 3:57 PM

grabbed Mike Williams before he had a chance to catch the pass. Their penalty was to move the ball up closer, but no TD. Plus the clock ran, no reset of clock.
If they had done it successfully on the Renfrow play, ball would have been moved to the 1, with 1 second left. Dabo would have been forced to make a huge decision, to kick and tie, or run one do-or-die play for the TD

My only thoughts are that Saban didn't earn his paycheck

Clearly that was the superior strategy in that situation.
Would have really been awful for the fans, though.

I think they were told to not let anyone get...

beside them. Knowing that half a step is all either of our WRs need they were instructed to jam then up at the LOS but do it while backing up a step. That way if the WR pushed off the call would be obvious for the defender would have been pushed down.

Bill, you make sense to me. Not sure whats wrong with these knuckleheads

It would have been, in hindsights, a smart play by Bama to throw both WRs down.. then, with time off the clock, we have to kick FG instead of go for the win.

If Hunter was grappled to the ground, DW4 walks that in all day long. No question he would have scored.

I've always believed that Bama planned to get penalized on
May 23, 2017, 10:54 AM

that play and force The Tigers to kick a FG with no time on the clock.
Hunter was just too quick for them....!
