Finished two wild hog hindquarters a hour ago and i'm about to pull the brisket off the pit to get ready to head over to a buddy's house for the game tonight, bottle of Buffalo Trace in hand!
Of course pulling for my alma mater, predicting 'Bama on top 27-17.
Roll Tide and you guys enjoy what should be an epic game tonight.

I had lots more confidence in Alabama before I saw the rest of the SEC try to play football this bowl season. Now I'm thinking ND has a great chance to win. This ain't the 'bama of the past 3 years by a long stretch. Hope I'm waaaaay wrong BTW.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Much as it pains me to say it.....Roll Tide.
by a couple of touchdowns.
although it's not exact.....the math works something like this:
Alabama beat Ole Miss 33-14 without breathing hard.
Ole Miss destroyed Pitt 38-17, and it wasn't as close as the score.
Pitt had Notre Dame down two touchdowns in the fourth quarter before the Irish escaped with a 29-26 win.
Alabama isn't as good as they were last year, and Notre Dame has a defense, so it isn't going to be a runaway, but the bookies have had it a 9 or 10 point game from the beginning. I'd guess something like 27-14.

I think Alabama wins, not that I want them to.
No matter what happens tho ND doesn't win.
1. Beat Alabama and the talk will be about how Alabama didn't take them serious, there was fatigue from being there 3/4 years etc. The national dialogue will be about how Alabama lost, not how Notre Dame won.
2. Lose to Alabama and the conversation will immediately swing VIOLENTLY to "Notre Dame was WAY overrated, never should have been there, complete garbage". Guaranteed. Which will be unfortunate because those kids play who is put in front of them. They've done everything asked and they've beaten good teams.
Realistically - Alabama and the SEC both should be sending the sweater vest a thank you card because were it not for some free tattoos - Alabama's home watching ND/OSU tonight.

I'll be waiting for LPE to announce before placing my bet, thank you!

4 degrees away from a NC? what time is kickoff? 7:31 central, supposedly. or you can tune in at 7 and get a half hour of dancing leprechauns and big rednecks in red shirts.

Ohio State is sort of the Name Which Must Not Be Named on ESPN this bowl season, aren't they?

Not that I think they should or that Alabama is a bad program, far from that - just that there's a reality there that if Jim T hadn't been an idiot - they're in this game. At the end of the day tho - college football is what it is today due to programs like ND, Alabama, Michigan, Penn State - the historical power houses that build college football from 60/70/80s etc.
