ESPN.com’s David Hale rejoins the podcast to discuss the 2018 national championship game between Alabama and Clemson. He and Ben Jones talked about a potential meeting between these two teams during the preseason as well. They discuss Dexter Lawrence’s suspension, the strengths of quarterback Trevor Lawrence, and where either team might find an edge in the matchup. They also talk about how Dabo Swinney might fit at Alabama one day in the future or whether he’d be interested in leading the Crimson Tide.
