Exactly...although Clowney weighs 260. It's all a matter of physics. They probably don't teach physics in Alabama. Just because they have a good football team doesn't mean they're smart.

It doesn't matter who would have been back there. He was going down.

No joke. The OP needs to tell his Bama friend to take a Physics class.

Thank you...

Oh no, its the thread police. Who cares if he started a new thread about the hit. Its a different thought and question about the hit so a new thread isn't all that bad is it?

To answer the original question; yes, Trent's fat head would of been rolling too if it was him getting the hand off.

Now, I had to argue in our favor, because I believe no matter who was back there, they were going to get hit, and HIT HARD.
So I know it is a hypothetical, but, do you believe that same type of hit would have occurred if it was Richardson back there?
I do, and honestly, I believe it didn't matter if the jolly green giant was getting the ball off to him, he was about to get popped.
His eyes were on the ball the entire time.

Didnt we do a good enough job stopping Richardson without Clowney?? Get off of your high horses Bama fans...

I don't mind it. Clowney's hit should get its own forum, appropriately named "The Hit."

If I were an NFL GM, I would do my best to lose every game next season (or as I say, "Go Downey for Clowney") and I would trade my first round draft pick for the next 5 years plus a hell of a lot of cash.
