AL.com filmed three groups of Alabama football fans as they reacted to two crucial scores in Monday’s CFP Championship: Jalen Hurts’s 30-yard touchdown to give the Crimson Tide a lead with two minutes left, and Clemson receiver Hunter Renfrow’s game-winning TD with one second left.

UConn Huskies Complete Another 90-Game Winning Streak
The UConn women’s basketball program is so perennially dominant that its only real competition at this point is past iterations of Geno Auriemma’s team. The current Huskies proved they’re still the best in basketball Tuesday night with their 90th-consecutive win—an NCAA record matched only by the UC...
Indiana Is Stumbling But OG Anunoby Is Still Snatching Souls
Indiana committed 14 turnovers and lost to Maryland Wednesday, falling to 1-3 in Big Ten play after starting the season No. 11 in the nation and climbing as high as No. 3. Hoosiers forward OG Anunoby was largely unspectacular off the bench, contributing just five points on 2-of-9 shooting; he did, h...
Grayson Allen Shoves FSU Assistant Coach, Who Says It's Chill
Duke lost on the road to Florida State 88-72 Tuesday night, and keeping with what now appears to be a nightly routine, guard Grayson Allen drew the ire of a college basketball team’s fan base when yet another one of the junior’s ill-controlled appendages struck yet another human being. This time, t...
Baylor's First Ever Spell As The Nation's Top-Ranked Team Kicks Off With Blowout Loss
Then-undefeated Baylor became the #1 team in the nation for the first time in school history on Monday. A day later, the Bears got blown out by West Virginia, and I hope they enjoyed their lone day in the number one spot, because it’s almost assuredly gone after this week....
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. But as Alabama’s Da’Ron Payne discovered, if y...
Michigan Pulls Off The Walk-On Scholarship Surprise Pretty Well
Much like pregame soldier-family reunions or fake-out marriage proposals, the tradition of surprising walk-on athletes with full-rides has become something of an over-used social media fixture. It’s cute and fun for the people involved, and the other players always eventually jump up and down, screa...

Moving to Washington, D.C. and starting a PAC doesn’t make as many as waves as it used to. Luckily for college athletic directors, Donald Trump has his name on a hotel....
That Last Alabama Drive Was Terrifying
More than any other team in sports, Alabama football feels the most futile to root against. Over and over, they’ve stamped out nascent comebacks with two well-timed turnovers or turned a 14-10 game into a 28-10 game in two minutes of work. These are the sorts of ways you can win games when you’re bi...
Clemson Dethrones Alabama And Wins National Championship With Last-Second Touchdown
The National Championship rematch between Alabama and Clemson was just as fraught and close as 2016's all-time classic, but unlike last year, it ended with Alabama getting their hearts ripped out and Clemson wining their first title since 1981....
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. There was no penalty called on the play, even if it appeared to be a fairly clear targeting violation. The Tigers held him out for the rest of the drive, but ESPN reported that he was medically...
Clemson Director Of Sports Medicine Not Into Scientific Studies, Very Into Knee Braces
Tonight, millions will tune in to watch two very good college football teams play again for the national championship. There will be Ben “I Love Butts” Boulware, no Lane Kiffin, and lots of knee braces on uninjured fat guys. ...
Cal Football Players Only Found Out Via Twitter That Coach Sonny Dykes Had Been Fired
Berkeley let go of head football coach Sonny Dykes this morning, after four years and a 19-30 record.

ACC: "There Is Nothing Conclusive" About Grayson Allen's Latest Dirty Footwork
Grayson Allen’s “indefinite” suspension for lunatic play turned out to be only one game, and just one game after his return, it looks as if that may not have been long enough for him to learn his lesson. During yesterday’s game against Boston College, the junior was involved in something that looks ...
Jim Boeheim: Actually, A Team's Record Means Nothing
Yesterday, Syracuse Post-Standard columnist Bud Poliquin wrote a piece titled “Syracuse basketball isn’t in six-week swoon; it’s more like three-year downward spiral.” Today, head coach Jim Boeheim let everyone know exactly what he thought of that....
Tracy Claeys Has No Idea What He's Talking About
The Tracy Claeys redemption tour has begun and, as this particular sort of redemption tour tends to, it’s already revealing more about how ridiculous it is for football coaches to be seen as righteous educational and intellectual leaders than anything else. On Tuesday, Claeys was fired—in part, admi...
