Finally getting to watch game. First Saturday of December always family reunion in Mississippi for my mother's side of family. Mom is 84, oldest brother living (4 passed away already) is 90, and the baby of family (whose home the reunion is held) is 78.

Left there about game start time, but didn't listen to game, rather talk with mom. I got back home in time for the final Bama defensive stand! Only part I saw live. But it does make it easier to watch, knowing the final outcome!

Listening to those two jackass announcers (Vern and Gary) on that last drive, I got the impression that Georgia dominated the game, and Bama managed to squeak a win. At the end of the 3rd qtr (where I'm at now on dvr), I see a game that looks like both teams are playing hard, and it looks at this point that last team with ball could be the winner.

I sure hope there are better announcers calling the NC game. I cannot stand Vern and Gary. fast-forwarding thru most of the dead time between actual plays. That much LESS time to listen to them.

So far, I'm glad to see that Bama has stuck to running the ball!

Man, I was so sad to see that poor kid throw that ball where he threw it.
Even sadder that the wide receiver didn't intentionally drop it, I guess in the moment, he thought
he was awesome enough to make it into the endzone. So it comes down to poor old Matthew Stafford or
whatever his name is. You gotta throw it away and live to surf another day. They had bama RIGHT THERE for
the taking. At least a SEC team is heading for the Nat Champ. Shame it's the galactic empire. Come on Notre Dame.

Be careful what you wish for bama fans, Saban WILL bolt if you win another.

Now that was a great game! Fake field goals, blocked kicks, big hits, cant ask for much more. I was not expecting Georgia to be able to match the overall physicality of Alabama but to their credit they did and then some.

I will also echo the sentiments against Vern and Gary. They are god awful, especially Vern. He makes tons of mistakes a game and his only insight on a big play is "my goodness". I believe the national title game will be on FOX so we'll have Joe Buck callng but more importantly Erin Andrews back on the sideline

Although I gotta disagree with ya Brad that Saban will leave if he wins another title. Where would he go? Don't see him going back to the NFL and he sure wouldn't leave for another college job. I think he'll be at Bama till he retires, so we'll have to get used to it

Thank You, Michael; I Definitely Agree!

May The Best Team Win In The National Championship!

Speculation is fun. So if Bama wins #15 and Saban bolts for another college gig where'd he go?

Only 3 open spots in the SEC (I think), Auburn, Tennessee and Arkansas. If he left the conference where would he go? ACC? Big 12? Big Ten? You'd think he'd wanna rebuild a team that plays in a "prestigious" conference. Or, for sharts and giggles we could say he's going to go to his Alma Mater (Kent State) and continue their growth.

Long month before the NC...too much time to think, haha...

OLS · 12-02-2012, 05:53 PM

What's that line from BoB?? "hey Gonorhea, Don't get hit in the face when Jerry throws in the sponge", lol.
There are a lot of places ol' Nicky could go where he would not have the intense pressure-cooker environment
that there is at the Capstone. He could go HOME, he could go away, he could die of an intensity-based heart attack.
I think he should go spend time with his family. Good luck in a month, that's one I won't watch. You guys enjoy it.

I think he was meaning he'd leave for the NFL. I could be wrong. If Nick Saban leaves 'Bama for another College team, he's a ****ing moron. He's the Coach of the "Best" team in College football. I don't think they're the best, just like I don't think ND is worthy of the #1 spot either.

Not looking forward to the BCS Title game... I was hoping for Kansas State and Oregon. Oh well.

longknocker · 12-03-2012, 03:25 AM

So If BAMA & ND Aren't The "Best" 2 Teams, Who Are? BAMA Was Rated #1 In All The Computer Polls & Rankings All Year Until They Slipped Up One Game & Lost To A&M. They Just Won The SEC Championship, Arguably The Most Difficult Conference In College Football. So Which College Team Is Better Than These 2?

ND Schedule:
They beat
Navy (Suck)
Purdue (Suck, won by 3)
MSU (Suck)
Miami (Suck)
Michigan (Won by 7)
BYU (Suck, won by 3)
Pitt (Suck, Won by 3 in 3OT)
Stanford (Won by 3)
Boston College (Suck)
Wake Forest (Suck)
USC (Won by 7 I think against a Freshman QB making his 1st start)

Bama:
Michigan (Blowout, Weak Opponent)
West. Kentucky (Weak Opponent)
Arkansas (Weak Opponent)
Florida Athletic (Weak Opponent)
Ole Miss (Weak Opponent)
Missouri (Weak Opponent)
Tennessee (Weak Opponent)
3 LSU (Won by 3) First properly ranked Opponent, and they almost lost
19 A&M (Lost by 5) Second properly ranked Opponent, embarrassing loss
Western Carolina (Weak Opponent)
Auburn (Weak Opponent)
SEC Championship 3 Georgia (Won by 4) Properly ranked Opponent.

Bama and Notre Dame spent all season for the most part beating up on Weaker teams, especially Bama. I know they have their Schedules made out way in advance, but that doesn't mean they're undefeated or near to it record puts them at the top.

Just my opinion.

We could've easily won 3 more games if we put Denard at RB the entire game, and had Gardner take the helm.
