it is sort of a Civil War factoid that Sherman turned left in Savannah (which is North) on christmas and largely went into the high country to the Carolinas rather than along the coast. he was aiming to defeat Johnston's army in North Carolina and link up with Grant in Virginia if necessary. Most of the cities on the coast were evacuated by then, leaving only freed starving slaves. The entire city of Columbia SC was still holding out and was stocked mostly with liquor and cotton bale barricades. it was put to the torch after surrendering, either by celebrating troops, freed slaves or retreating confederates.

It sucks for Vincent Smith to be on the wrong end of a famous play- but its not like the play was his fault...

It was an amazing hit- and it is "funny" to watch.  No problem with the humor related to it at all.  If a Michigan player had the same play and you saw an ad the other way around it'd be funny.

That hit has taken on a life of its own. Sports Illustrated put Clowney on its all-Bowl team simply based on that one play, ignoring the fact that Clowney had no sacks and that was his only TFL (and that Michigan took the lead on its subsequent drive). They did not put Lewan on the team despite winning the head-to-head matchup all day (the Clowney hit was a result of the TE missing the audible, Lewan was blocking the DT).

The media can't see the forest for the trees.

I stand corrected. Nonetheless, it was a below-average day for Mr. Clowney, despite the one deservedly highlight-reel tackle.

Hail to the college whose colors we wear,

Hurrah for the Yellow and Blue!

When it looked like our entire team was about to be crunched before the snap, someone should have noticed and called a timeout.  But, hey, fuck up a guy's car and he's bound to play with some emotion.

When I saw how they lined up following that botched first down call, all I was thinking was "Oh shit, somebody's about to get cracked."

Is anyone surprised? Try and ignore for a moment that it's Michigan and Vincent Smith. It's literally the perfect play for a defensive lineman. A clean hit that is absolutely brutal looking, including dramatic helmet-popping-off, that caused a fumble that was recovered by the same player making the hit. It is seriously a perfect play from literally every perspective besides it happening to Michigan.

I am this close to going all Dark Blue in here.

Why does everyone act like this was the greatest hit/play in CFB history. It was a good, hard hit and a great play to turn the momentum their way but the coverage it's gotten is way overblown.

Maybe so, but this hit was pretty damn strong and on a much bigger stage than a lot of the others - national television by a high-profile NFL prospect.  I think everyone has to admit that it was a damn good hit.

Umm because it was one of the greatest hits. Hats off to Vincent Smith for getting right up and not leaving the game...If it were me, I would have been taken out on a stretcher and probably would have shit myself and be forced to wear diapers for the rest of my life. It's not even the fact that it was one of the most amazing, and legal, hits ever. It's also the fact that it came right after a blown call, and it let to the game-changing TD. I am a huge Michigan fan, but no one should take anything away from Clowney because it was like a train running through a Volkswagon Beetle.

Hats off to Clowney..dont be a hater. If Ace Sanders had gotten obliterated in like fashion by Jake Ryan we would have daily Gifs on the homepage paying homage to the hit.

This is not going away anytime soon either..we will likely see this hit many times until Clowney gets drafted

I think it'd still be getting a lot of hype.  A lot of neutral observers probably don't even remember the game's outcome or when that play happened, just that it did.
