Sugar Bowl: Utah 31, Alabama 17 (Final)

[Jake]

First time Bama has trailed after 3 quarters all season...

Is 'Bama missing Andre Smith this much, or is Utah's pass rush just this good?

 

[lvbuckeye]

big break on the bounce, punt downed at the one...

 

[Basebuck]

I don't think JPW has it in him to lead bama to victory. What Freshman does Bama have at QB? Star something?

Is 'Bama missing Andre Smith this much, or is Utah's pass rush just this good?

Considering it's coming from all over I doubt it's just Smith, but I'm sure him being gone doesn't help.

Who knows, but it's more sacks than Bama has allowed in a game all season.

Ever try running full speed with someone grabbing your jersey?

considering how much jersey grabbing the Tide's O-line has been doing, i think that was a pretty bullshit call.

Bama definitely misses Smith, but the Utes' D-line is way quicker than the Tide's O-line.

He's a run specialist right?

 

[OCBucksFan]

Nice first down.

 

[Basebuck]

Huge 1st down

 

[sandgk]

Huge 3rd down for Utah. Breathing room.

 

[Jake]

Freddie Brown is 2nd team all MWC. I'd like to know who was 1st team.

 

[TheIronColonel]

Fucking clutch, that.

 

[sandgk]

If they can score to cap this drive it might be all Utah needs to coast to victory,

Smith is good at everything, but the NFL guys seem to think he's more of a run blocking road grader.
