Quinnen Williams slights Trevor Lawrence, Clemson offense

The Clemson offense put up 35 points against what was supposed to be a solid Alabama defense on Monday night, but at least one Crimson Tide player was not impressed by what he saw on the other side of the field.

Alabama defensive tackle Quinnen Williams said after his team’s 44-16 loss in the National Championship Game that the Clemson offense was “very easy” to defend. He said the Tide faced far better offenses before the title game.

“They weren’t hard at all,” Williams said in a postgame interview showed on ESPN. “They were very easy. They capitalized on a lot of mental errors. We made a lot of mental errors. They didn’t come out and do nothing special. We played greater offense than that – Oklahoma offense or Georgia offense. We just made a lot of mental errors and they capitalized. That’s what good teams do – they capitalize on mental errors.”

They were good enough to beat your ass by a large margin.

Next time maybe they should keep going.

Also I would like to have a talk with his freshman rhetoric teacher.

Someday he'll realize, doesn't matter if it's by fluke or design, skill or dumb luck, the winner goes home with the trophy.

That's part of the gameplan, generally.
