Bet should be Bama has more scoring drives than non-scoring drives minus drives that end with the victory formation.

No it's not. With the possible exceptions of Kansas State & Oregon, there are no teams in the country that can beat any of the 1 or 2 loss teams in the SEC.

I can see kstate being able to hang, but ducks wouldn't have the defense to keep aj mccarron in check. Did we already forget that the aggies beat this tide team on the road? From the group of teams that are mentioned, the common factor is the mobile quarterback that can make plays outside the pocket. I think the Irish QB is just as capable and is more clutch than all of the QBs that the tide has faced all year. In the end I think we'll see a better gameplan from Brian Kelly than that of Saban, and this game will be a lot closer than people think.

Oregon has the same problem almost every year in bowl games. When good defensive teams have time to prepare for them, they usually figure out how to shut them down.
Disagree on the Alabama/Notre Dame game. Notre Dame has no offensive weapons that will remotely scare Alabama. They'll be very fortunate to score a touchdown in the game.

You going to the game?
I should be there you can pay me there.....
I might be in Miami (on a boat), but I don't have tickets. At least not yet.
The bet is that Alabama will score more times than they punt for $100. Please confirm.
You can also get Notre Dame +13.5 as well.

The NFL disagrees with you, but it sounds good.
The bet is that Alabama will score more times than they punt. We can put a dime on it.
You can also get Notre Dame +13.5 for another dime.
Lemme know what you want to do.

I want Bama has fewer scoring drives than scoring drives for the reasons I stated elsewhere with the caveat that victory formation drives won't count against you. Your belief is that Bama will dominate so this should be a no brainer for you. Also I will take ND TT over 5.5 and Bama TT under 40.5. Said I would parlay all 3 together for a hundy to win 6 hundy deal?

Which is exactly why it is better to base the bet on scoring drives versus punts. Based on the bet you propose Alabama could win the game 42-0, and I could still lose the bet. Of course you would be eager to make a bet so heavily weighted in your favor.
For example, Alabama beat Auburn 49-0 yet still had 6 unproductive drives. On the other hand, against LSU Alabama scored 3 times, and punted 7 times. So if Notre Dame has the type of shutdown defense that LSU does, then this should be a pretty easy bet for you to make and cash.
If you don't like that, there's always your Irish +13.5 with no vig.

Ok ND +13.5 ND TT over 5.5 and Bama TT under 40.5 parlay for a hundy.
Deal or are the 10 to 1 odds in your favor not good enough?

Why don't you just go ahead and make Alabama's team total 100.5 and Notre Dame's team total -0.5???

#75 Posted: 12/2/2012 6:27:42 PM Those are the numbers you stated Jimmy. Evidently you're not near as confident in the crimson tide streaming between your legs as you pretend to be
All show and no go huh Jimmy?
Sack up and take the bet. Your numbers and your words.
Or do you wish to retract your hyperbole at this point?
