Clemson's Offensive Line Turned Da'Ron Payne Into A Blocking Sled
For an interior defensive lineman, short fourth downs and goal-line stands seem like the most exciting situations a football game can offer the position—their shot to get low, blow through an aggressive wall of meat, and make the play in the backfield.

That Last Alabama Drive Was Terrifying
More than any other team in sports, Alabama football feels the most futile to root against.

This Is Not Targeting, Somehow?
Mike Williams hung on and got the first down here, but it cost him a huge shot from Alabama DB Tony Brown.
