‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ opening blasts away box office records
After fielding questions, Obama concluded the press conference: “OK everybody, I got to get to ‘Star Wars ‘”. Greenfield said the success of ” Force Awakens ” would not offset the impact of subscriber losses at ESPN.
He was done for the day as if it was a September game against one of those nonconference cupcakes. First of all, they have a good front. The first, in the second quarter, set Alabama up for a 1-yard touchdown by Henry on the next play for the first points of the game.
Alabama vs. Clemson: Point Spread & Over-Under
It’s just it was somewhat evident that Michigan State may not have actually been one of the four best teams in the country. Sure, McCaffrey didn’t win the Heisman Trophy, and Stanford barely missed out on the College Football Playoff.
The Clemson Tigers are returning to the Palmetto state fresh from their 37-17 win against the Sooners in the Capital One Orange Bowl.
Australia show no mercy for West Indies
West Indies enjoyed by far their best day of the second Test on day three but Australia remained firmly in the box seat at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
Clemson will have a chance to become the 1st team in college football history to go 15-0 if they win the national championship game.
Tweet of the game: As Alabama squeezed the life out of Michigan State’s offense and title hopes in the first half, one fan stood out as a kind of anthropomorphic representation of the Tide defense. He had 150 yards of considerable help from running back Wayne Gallman, of whom Coach Dabo Swinney said, “He’s got over 1,500 yards this year, and he’s just a sophomore, you know?”
This year’s Cotton Bowl is a match-up between Alabama’s brilliant head coach Nick Saban and Michigan State’s Mark Dantonio, who was defensive coordinator under Saban at Michigan State, and took over as head coach when Saban departed. A ride that led to Michigan State being one game away from competing for its first outright championship.
Clemson shouldn’t starved for motivation. The celebration at that point was pretty tame on the Alabama sideline. I mean, the whole time we were here, it was total focus on winning the game.
Speaking of threats, the big one coming into the game was Michigan State quarterback Connor Cook. Players were “a little too complacent” in last year’s playoff, Saban said, taking responsibility for that.
Michigan State never recovered after the stalled drive.
The defense was even more incredible.
The Westgate SuperBook in Las Vegas opened with Alabama as a touchdown favorite over Clemson. “But, we knew at some time that we would need these guys like they did today and in the Florida game” for the SEC championship on December 5.
Lansing State Journal writers Graham Couch and Chris Solari, Detroit Free Press / LSJ MSU beat writer Joe Rexrode and Free Press columnist Shawn Windsor break down the Spartans’ Shellacking in the Cotton Bowl.
“It’s awesome. It makes me jealous that I’m not a year older and already at Clemson”.
Strength vs. strength. Clemson’s offensive line dominated Oklahoma, as it has other opponents.
The Lane Kiffin factor.
The Tigers proved Thursday that even without Lawson, they have enough depth defensively to shut down even a great offense like Oklahoma’s when it matters most. With the Spartans set on stopping the Heisman Trophy tailback, Coker started finding ArDarius Stewart on the perimeter before going deep to Ridley and finishing the evening 25-of-30 for a career-high 286 yards and two touchdowns.
It’s probable that Alabama has seen nothing this season like Watson, and Watson has seen nothing this season like Alabama. We were still in a quarterback situation, rotating guys and figuring that out.
Like the rankings, the F+ Ratings have Alabama and Clemson as the top two rated teams. “He has the breakaway speed, and he’s a great running back overall”.
But that win won’t come easily against a Saban-coached Alabama squad that has been the gold standard in America for so long.

Hollis had his eye on Dantonio, who was the Cincinnati coach at the time, and called Saban for a recommendation.
