I don't think college (or HS, or middle school, or peewee) statistics necessarily carry over to how someone will do at the next level. They are an indicator (not necessarily the indicator) of how 2 athletes compare, but based on your logic scouts wouldn't be necessary. All you would have to do is look at statistics and determine who you will draft (or recruit).

I’m with you. I just see Mac making great throws and reads. He’s terrible with his legs, while Burrow was great, but I don’t think being second on your team in rushing is a requirement in the NFL.

Add to this the key Ohio State injuries, which I think you forgot to mention.

Bama had injuries too, Landon Dickerson 1st team All-American Center, Wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (the single most explosive wide receiver and punt returner in the country), Labryan Ray starting defensive end, and we lose Battle on a targeting call early in the game. Regarding injuries, if Jaylen Waddle is healthy, it's an even more lopsided score even if every player out for the Buck's is back. And the shortened season didn't seem to bother the Buck's against Clemson. Better team won this one, just like 2015 when OSU beat the Tide in New Orleans. When it's over I tip my hat to the winner and move on, excuses are worthless.
