Glad Jalen is playing well.   :clap: :clap:
He's underthrown two wide open receivers that should have been TDs, giving the defenders time to recover and break up the pass.  Frustrating to dominate the stats but only have a 1 TD lead.  

At least so far Bama has dominated time of possession and limited the number of Clemson's plays.  We shouldn't have a repeat of last year.  (But I want a larger safety margin.)

Jalen!   >:(   Fumble.   >:(
