Re: Writer says Notre Dame would crush Alabama

Nothing against ND, but the writer is talking about the same ND team that squeeked by Purdue, Michigan, Stanford and Pitt this year right?

If ND goes undefeated they certainly derserve to be in the BCSCG. Assuming we make it and I think we will, I like our chances against ND. I like our chances a lot.

I am torn between whether I want ND to win against USC or not.

Do we want to annihilate ND or do we want another SEC championship game just to annoy everyone else?

Not looking past the barn and Georgia, but a month to rest up for the domers would be delicious. It would be like a freight train hitting a Yugo.

I should be shocked there is a 4 page thread stemming from a Bleacher Report "article", but sadly, I am not.
You're not the only one not surprised.

Re: Writer says Notre Dame would crush Alabama

Google News is polluted with Bleacher Report Articles and I wish they didn't index them all. They are most often biased written by a homer, which is not bad itself, but the quantity of articles and the way they are indexed with "news" articles has polluted the net and made their writers seem more legitimate than they are.

I am O.K with an undefeated Notre Dame in the championship game, as long as their are no other undefeated eligible teams.

Bama vs. Notre Dame will easily break ratings records. A large part because of Notre Dame, but Alabama will add more viewers than any other team could due to the fan base, being considered the best team the past few years and the SEC fanbase. This is the game that the league would most want imo.

Re: Writer says Notre Dame would crush Alabama

I stopped reading when he said ND should "mirror the game plan that Texas A&M laid out in its win over Alabama: Take away Eddie Lacy and T.J Yeldon and force the Tide to beat you through the air." :pDT_box:
Huh.

Guess he missed where they averaged over 6 yards a carry against A&M.

We stopped running because Lacy got a bit hobbled and we were dedicated to the pass, not because of anything A&M did.

Re: Writer says Notre Dame would crush Alabama

A team that needs 3 OT to beat Pitt, struggles with Boston College and BYU...........

can NOT beat Alabama. Period. Full Stop.

If this is tbe BCS NC game Alabama will be favored and should win by 10+.

Just compare the Bama - Michigan and ND - Michigan games......

While we're at it, let's compare the Texas-Ole Miss game to the Bama-Ole Miss game. Or what about the LSU-Auburn to Bama-LSU? Or A&M-Bama to Bama-LSU?

Re: Writer says Notre Dame would crush Alabama

It is good psychologically for the Bama team to have the media loving Georgia and Notre Dame. Makes coaching easier for Saban.

Have you ever noticed how Bama plays better when the media casts doubt on them? Remember the SEC title game in 2009--Bama had escaped Auburn with a win--the next week they destroyed the Gators.

Re: Writer says Notre Dame would crush Alabama

does it matter what a bleacherreport writer says?

If we play them in the BCSNCG, then all the talking will happen right there on the field.

Re: Writer says Notre Dame would crush Alabama

Yes, RTR91, I understand you can't just compare one game to the next in college football, which is why I mentioned ND games with Pitt, BC, and BYU. I will give ND credit for beating OU at OU, not an easy place to win. Having said that OU is not a great team.

If ND had played the sked of Bama or A&M they'd likely have 3 losses.

If if plays out Bama vs. ND in the NC game I will be shocked if Bama doesn't win by double-digits....

you have to give them credit for winning 11 games, no matter how they did it. In college football, every saturday is a differentt day.

we also have to beat auburn and Georgia before we even get to that point.

I believe we're a better team, but we'll know for sure once we play them...and Im assuming we win the next two games when i say that...

Re: Writer says Notre Dame would crush Alabama

Notre Dame has shafted two teams already to remain undefeated. If we do play them we need to do a thorough background search of the officials in that game. We don't need any I thought I saw pass interference, holding, etc. from their officials. Besides we have to beat aubren before we can think about any of that.:BigA::BigA::BigA:

So you are saying Bama must win outside the margin of corruption in order to beat Notre Dame; a close game goes to the Irish.
