Collins was nursing a shoulder injury going into the Sugar Bowl. I would have to go back and watch the game to see exactly when it was, but Cardale took off running on a broken play and steamrolled right over Collins and another Bama defender. After the game, when Bama was in the middle of their excuse-fest, Collins claimed Cardale intentionally tried to hurt his shoulder by plowing into him the way he did. He DID leave the game for a short time, but came back in and was pretty ineffective the rest of the game.
I don't remember that.

I have misplaced my pants.
This makes me laugh way more than I should be allowed to at work:

Yeah, it's from 2016, but I'm going to imagine it was posted this morning.
Link to the gif. I remember the play, even if I didn't know about the quote.

I am sure I've told this story here before...
A few years back Jones happened to be at a little league game where my youngest was playing against the team Cardale was there to watch. I decided to go say hello and thank him for his contribution to the Natty. As we were talking I asked him: "So, let me ask you... which was more fun - trucking Landon Collins or that big dude from Oregon?" He didn't hesitate, his smile broadened... "Collins"

We are down to four teams in the SEC with fewer than 2 losses.
Two of those teams have a loss by at least 17 points.
Getting harder for the committee to cook the books.

We’ll have to see how the B1G and PAC 12 seasons shake out but it’s very easy to see this year just being the 4 conference champs now the the B12 is out and ND is in the ACC.
I don’t think style points will matter other than seeding. Oregon isn’t losing with their schedule. OSU is highly favored to do the same. The SEC East just lost any at large hopes.
ND somehow staying unbeaten and losing a close game to Clemson is the only at large scenario I can see ESPN even theoretically promoting but then again over who? A 1 loss B1G champ? 1 loss PAC 12 champ?
I think it will take a total meltdown(2 plus losses) from PAC 12 or B1G to reopen the door for any at large team but it’s 2020. Who knows?

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Losses in the SEC mean more at CBS too.
Tomorrow's Top 25 Today: Alabama leads depleted SEC as two more fall from college football rankings
1. Clemson (Last week -- 1): One advantage of those nonconference games against FCS or lower-tier FBS programs is the opportunity for power conference teams to develop depth by letting their backups get in game reps. Clemson treated Georgia Tech like its FCS opponent in a 73-7 win, with Trevor Lawrence and other starters mostly out of the game by midway through the third quarter.
2. Alabama (2): This will be yet another week to check the dispersion of No. 1 votes when the new rankings come out on Sunday. Clemson had 59 of the 62 available first-place votes in last week's balloting, and considering the 67-point win, I don't think the Tigers are in jeopardy of losing that spot atop the polls. But Alabama had its own display of talent against a significantly better opponent, so I'd expect that the Crimson Tide have more than two first-place votes as they start to close the gap with Clemson and separate itself from the rest of the poll. Alabama scored 24 unanswered points vs. Georgia.
3. Georgia (3): I just don't think there's any reason to jump any of the teams below ahead of the Bulldogs after the loss. Georgia showed early that it had the pieces to compete on the same field as the Tide, the only issue being that Alabama's pieces were just a little bit better. Given how Notre Dame played against Louisville and the fact that most of the top 10 weren't in action, I think Georgia stays snug at No. 3 after its first loss of the season.
4. Notre Dame (4): Will the Fighting Irish fall after a 12-7 baseball score against Louisville? Brian Kelly suggested that the game went better than the score indicates, and that's likely because there wasn't much time that it ever appeared that the Irish were going to lose to the unranked Cardinals. With a handful of teams behind them off due to COVID-19 cancellations or the fact that their season hasn't started yet, Notre Dame remains in place. But keep an eye on those voting points because the gap with Ohio State could be minimal heading into the first week of Big Ten play.
5. Ohio State (6): The Buckeyes will kick off their 2020 season on Saturday against Nebraska.

It's Puppet Time!
Clemson might beat ND so bad that they will go back to leather helmets. The only way ND keeps it close is if the Clemson team gets corona or Brian Kelley somehow suckers Lawerence and Dabo to get on a scissor lift.

Yeah. I guess it’s theoretically possible but they’d be in danger of getting the eye test applied and not in their favor.
no one will believe they are one of the 4 best teams even if they are undefeated and conference champs.
