Alabama claims 2021 national title, Mac Jones or Tua Bama's best QB & can anyone oppose the Tide
Andy and Ari unpack everything from Alabama's, 52-24, 2021 College Football Playoff National Championship win over Ohio State. Though not at full strength, OSU's defense played uncharacteristically poor (2:15). The duo analyze a few questionable play calls by Ryan Day (6:00). Is Mac Jones a better Alabama quarterback than Tua Tagoviloa (8:45), and why was DeVonta Smith so effective? The Crimson Tide boast the nation's best recruiting class in 2021; is this type of success sustainable and can Nick Saban keep being, well, Nick Saban (13:00)? Despite the Buckeyes trailing Alabama, marginally, in recruited 5-star prospects, the national champion's ability to curate and cultivate talent continues to transcend comprehension (18:15). Who is the only team that can oppose the Alabama machine, according to Andy (22:30)? Is it still alright to cross swords over the 4th spot in the CFP (34:00)? Before closing, the guys rank their top-5 programs based off this season (38:00)?
