    Nothing will ever top watching that onside kick vs Clemson and Sabans smug smile afterwards.

      Did you ever try and sell something to your parents, where what you did, you were successful, but it was high risk? "But, I did it, didn't I?" What was their response.
      Saban's onside kick at that point was an incredibly stupid play, regardless the outcome. Both teams had held the other to two 3 and outs or at most 6 plays. There was no reason to panic. But Saban did. Worked out, but just plain stupid.

      @@mas5867 it really wasn't. If you rewatch that clip the announcers even mention that Clemson had been leaving a gap in coverage against the sideline for a while leading up to that game. It was something that more than just Saban had noticed and was a calculated play call 100%. Griffith had even practiced specifically for that scenario and executed it flawlessly.

      Heard nothing about leaving a gap up to that game. Kirkstriet said, "all night"
      Like the botched fake punt against TX 09, at the point in the game an onside kick was not a smart move. Statistically onside kicks were successful 23% of the time in 2015. 77% chance to give Dabo a short field.

      On further review. AL was clearly offsides on that play. Fowler even says AL was close to being offsides.
      See it at 2:35:47
      *"2015-16 CFP National Championship - #2 Alabama vs. #1 Clemson (HD)"*
      Use cog and slow the play down to .25
      The kicker's plant foot is beyond the 35 yd line when he kicks it.
      I cannot wait until they stop refusing to use video evidence on ANY play to reverse plays.
      Thanks for mentioning it. 2015 was Saban's only legit NC and now, even that game has questions.

      Definitely, I actually was more emotional after this game than the 2nd & 26 game. I remember how 2018 was supposed to finally be Georgia’s year and it looked like Kirby was finally going to beat Saban. Then Jalen comes off the bench against the same opponent, in the same stadium he was benched in January, and puts on the game of the year.

      We weren't getting the stops on defense we needed and were used to getting so something different needed to be done to deny DeShaun Waston a possession. Perfectly executed onside kick to catch them completely off guard and give us the momentum back.

Georgia hasn’t demonstrated the mental toughness to close the deal against Alabama.
