Game Thread: Official PreGame Thread - Bama vs. Clemson, Round Two...

Scalpers selling section 238 (lower on 20 yard line) for $1000 each. Not sure if real, but a damn good deal

Three of the four clowns on "Around the Horn" - naturally, it was SEC hater Bomani Jones who picked Clemson - after spending the entire segment suggesting Clemson would have major trouble.....

Hard to believe that show is still on

Their scripting demands that a certain number pick Clemson. If there were not enough for a big event, they'd assign it. I've talked with Rece about it...

 

[selmaborntidefan]

Kornheiser just said that picking against Alabama is like picking against New England - you don't do it. Said he thinks we'll win, but he seems to be hoping for Clemson. Wilbon said, "Alabama is unbeaten for a reason."

You guys should be tuned into the SEC Network....NOT ESPN!

They just has Coach Mac on a little while ago...it was GREAT!

 

[FitToBeTide]

This stuns me. I would have expected him to be a sure fire Clemson pick. Like Skip Bayless.

Reverse mojo for Bayless maybe?

 

[TideMom2Boys]

I am tired of all the talk from the Media. I am just ready for kick off.

 

[Bazza]

ON SECN, they just showed the Tide's buses rolling in...all 5 of them from a helicopter viewpoint....

It's true. It is pretty well known that guys are basically drawing straws in those debate shows. They viciously defend their lightly held assigned opinions.

 

[TideMom2Boys]

They are in the stadium...my heart is racing!

Looks like relatively speaking, the Clemson pickers were the dumber of the lot.

 

[Bazza]

That's actually a good thing!

Seriously? To what end? Make it look like they aren't homers? Most of the year if they think team A Will beat team B they pick, sometimes everyone, in favor of team A.

Is it the fact that it's Bama that makes the difference in this scenario? The crowd won't shut up otherwise that "ESPN is in Bamas pocket" commentary?

 

[gtowntide]

Let's go be champions boys and girls! Roll Tide!

 

[B1GTide]

My wife is totally jacked up right now. She has on multiple layers of lucky Alabama gear.

On the debate shows, they don't function on two people shouting agreements at each other...

Just returned to house after evacuation due to possible flooding. House is fine, computer and tv are re-connected, and the rain has turned to snow. Ready for a great game and victory tonight. Roll, Tide!

You up here by me? We had flooding down the road a ways and now has turned back to snow.

OK - Desmond's suit is officially the worst I have ever seen.
