Alabama’s defense is a lot of things.
It’s certainly the best in the country this season. And if you ask defensive end Jonathan Allen, it has the potential to be the best of all time.
Washington coach Chris Petersen described it as not just elite but as a “really, really elite championship defense” after it held the Huskies’ prolific offense to seven points and less than 200 total yards last Saturday to advance to the College Football Playoff National Championship Presented by AT&T against Clemson.
"Defensively, they're No. 1 in the world in everything," Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said.
