SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Saturday’s College Football Playoff semifinal at the Fiesta Bowl may feature the top two defensive players in college football in Clemson linebacker Isaiah Simmons and Ohio State defensive end Chase Young.
While Young won’t admit any player is better than him, he still has a great amount of respect for Simmons.
“Isaiah – freaky. Real freakish player, man,” Young said Tuesday morning during the Fiesta Bowl press conference at the JW Marriott Camelback Inn.
“I actually know Zay. He’s a real good friend of mine. He’s an animal, man. Hopefully our offense has a good game plan going in because he’s definitely somebody who can wreck a game.
