ND might win if Golson has the game of his life. Unfortunately, that happens sometimes when teams play Alabama but even then, teams don't always win.
Steven Garcia played like a pro for USCe in one game only. Cam, like it or not, was a great college QB. Johnny Manziel is amazing. Jefferson played above his usual game. Mettenburger played the game of his life against Bama this year and got beat anyway, but the game was a lot closer than I wanted it to be.
When Bama loses, it's usually because the opposing QB played great. I've watched Golson play a lot this year and he has his moments. He also looked like a freshman a lot. What worries me is the month of practice he's had. The guy has plenty of big game experience, as much as AJ had last year, and our guys need to assume he's going to be on his game tonight.
