NCAAF College Football News, Photos, Stats, Scores, Schedule & Videos… On Nightcap, hosted by Shannon Sharpe and Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson with special guest Johnny Manziel, the discussion centered on a question college football fans are now asking out loud: Has the Alabama standard changed?

Sharpe noted that Alabama looked slow from the opening kick, describing the Crimson Tide as if they were “running in mud.”
