Its hard to believe gaining the west coast TV for the first quarter from (4-5 to 5-6) is more eyeballs than the attrition on the east coast (and central) from 10 to 11 to 12 to 1 am.

Maybe Im naively thinking of people like me who work.
Well, they know the beginning of the game will be competitive. Can't know if the end will be.

He led with the crown of the helmet bc he lowered his head, so that he was not looking at the defensive player when he tackled him. They've implemented the rule to get people to stop doing that.
His head wasnt lowered the whole time. His eyes were up when he started going in for the tackle.

Yeah, there's a whole quarter left but they're really looking tired
It would be interesting to examine their substitution patterns in this game vs the season. One problem with a 7 db system would have to be tired dbs. Even Clemson probably has a healthy dropoff between their first and 14th db.

His head was lowered when he hit the defensive player... and that's when it matters

Burrow is obviously a great college QB, playing excellently tonight. Interesting to reflect on the fact that he wanted to go to Nebraska but didn't get an offer, then couldn't get playing time at Ohio St.

Even the best have to find the right fit.

I think last year's Clemson would have had a better chance, this year's Clemson doesn't have that crazy good DL.
I don't think I've seen a team in my life that would beat this one. Auburn 2011 maybe, just because they had actual magic.
