Your right they are better with Hogan, but the running game and D hasn't changed |

Ditto, bro. ND will move the ball? How? If Alabama shows up with claws out, keep the bus warm.  |

The point I'm trying to make is that you should beware interpreting Bama's ground game as one that will find analogous success against ND as it did with UGA. ND, while it's stacked with talent, is a solid enough unit to stop the ground game, forcing McCarron to toss it around a little more than Saban may want.
That said, I wouldn't be surprised by a Bama win of 20-0 or 17-10, but I doubt we're going to see many plays in excess of 20 yards, the kinds of plays that are friendly to over bets. I'm assuming an O/U of 41. I'm only going to play the under.

Alabama will score more times than they punt.

Despite some people contending that UGA righted the ship towards the end of the season, don't forget that GT and Georgia Southern racked up huge chunks of yardage. And lest we forget, Buffalo, UK, USCeast, and Tennessee had a decent amount of success against all this vaunted talent.

Worth considering...
Did anyone notice the perfect timing of Saban and staff making the right call at the right time in the 2nd half? A blitz to sack the QB...get the ball back...set UGA up...then boom- ball goes deep. Two plays that the entire UGA bench never saw coming. It was poetry in motion, man. Just one example.
Perhaps Kelly's staff and players are more disciplined than UGA's guys with Richt. I wouldn't doubt it.
However...ND is wwwwwwwway out-talented. Out-coached? Probably a wash. |

OK , I will bet whatever you can afford. The bet is, Bama scoring 4 TDs. I have the under. Name the price, and I will take it. Also, ND has better athletes than Georgia |

#49 Posted: 12/2/2012 1:30:21 AM It should be fun. Maybe Bama throttles em anything is possible, but I just don't think it's going to happen. Bama is a great team with arguably the best CFB coach of the last decade in the toughest conference, What does Saban have 3 rings?
and then we have lowly ND, hasn't achieved in so long no one under 30 knows who the f they are, always losing and underachieving with 3rd year coach that had a 16-10 record before this season, a frosh qb, and some guy named Manti.
And your telling me the spread opened at only -11.5 and now it's down to -10 count me in. It's too good to be true that's why it isn't. Really don't believe ND is a public favorite here the whole world is going to be on Bama come kickoff and that gives me pause as a gambler, not as as a ND, almost objective homer.

Is this an overreaction to today's game? I think so!
