Film Room Flashback: Derrick Henry’s 50 yard TD against Clemson got the party started

We are lucky enough to have a whole bunch of recent national championship appearances, and we can pick which one was our favorite or which one was the most fun.

For me, the first championship game against Clemson in 2015/2016 is way up there: Derrick Henry capping off his Heisman season and Alabama career with another 30+ carries and 3 touchdowns, Kenyan Drake’s flight, another gutsy performance from Jake Coker, O.J. Howard seemingly wearing a coat of invisibility, the onside kick. It was chock full of memorable moments.

And it was this 50 yard run that really opened up the fun.
