    This reminds me of "12" Bowls. Hanging around 60% then pulled away and killed it in the final run. Tmrw big day for me. Mich -6 is my Bowl I'm going big. I see Mich coming out strong after that Ohio St embarrassment. I really really would like your advice before I pull the trigger. I've been following this thread closely. Your close to a 3-0 sweep. What a covers treat to see you back. big day Tmrw. I think your right on Bama having fits with Sooners. Sooners will score, but can Okla defense just get a few stops?. Cant wait. BOL Boom

    Bowls:

    14 - 9 overall  61%

    7 - 3 Big Plays  70%


    Losing by half a point in that Washington st game hurt.... But you win some like those and you lose some.



    Today:


    Michigan  - 5.5

    Virginia  +4.5  BIG

    Clemson  - 12  BIG

    Oklahoma / Alabama  Over 78  BIG

    Oklahoma  + 14 BIG



    Have a Great Day

    I agree Michigan is the play... How Big??? Not really sure. We will find out very quick in this game if Michigan came to play or not...

    As far as Oklahoma... Yes, Oklahoma will get theirs... Bottom line is this will be a shootout.... If people don't believe it they're fooling themselves...

    Just for the record:


    I think most likely Alabama will find away to win this game.... it's what they do, they're a great program. Winners usually fins ways to win and losers usually find ways to lose.

    With that being said.... Oklahoma is tremendous. Kyler Murray is freak show and if Hollywood Brown is 100% or even 80% I don't think the Alabama secondary can cover them. Clemson has a weakness and it's the secondary too... but nobody talks about Alabama's weakness... and trust me, I know what it is.... it's that secondary too. It will be exposed tonight.

    When Alabama is Alabama... they have great outside defenders in the secondary... Nick's little secret is he likes to play man press on the corners and rotate the safety's in and outside the box.... He can't do that much this year, the guys are just not " there " yet.  He also likes to force the issue usually with his defense... Not really happened much this year if you watch the tape... they're playing more zone and coverage then I've ever seen before from them.

    If Kyler Murray gets to sit in the pocket like I think he will... He is gonna be a nightmare for this defense.... any defense for that matter, Clemson included. Plus the one thing that isn't really talked about as much that i think will be huge in this game..... Oklahoma has the BEST offensive line in the country and it's not even close... so they WILL rack up some running yards with the backs and Murray.


    This will be a game people.... this is not a Alabama smack you in the mouth win by 30+ types of games.

    I think most likely Alabama will find away to win this game.... it's what they do, they're a great program. Winners usually fins ways to win and losers usually find ways to lose.

    With that being said.... Oklahoma is tremendous. Kyler Murray is freak show and if Hollywood Brown is 100% or even 80% I don't think the Alabama secondary can cover them. Clemson has a weakness and it's the secondary too... but nobody talks about Alabama's weakness... and trust me, I know what it is.... it's that secondary too. It will be exposed tonight.

    When Alabama is Alabama... they have great outside defenders in the secondary... Nick's little secret is he likes to play man press on the corners and rotate the safety's in and outside the box.... He can't do that much this year, the guys are just not " there " yet.  He also likes to force the issue usually with his defense... Not really happened much this year if you watch the tape... they're playing more zone and coverage then I've ever seen before from them.

    If Kyler Murray gets to sit in the pocket like I think he will... He is gonna be a nightmare for this defense.... any defense for that matter, Clemson included. Plus the one thing that isn't really talked about as much that i think will be huge in this game..... Oklahoma has the BEST offensive line in the country and it's not even close... so they WILL rack up some running yards with the backs and Murray.


    This will be a game people.... this is not a Alabama smack you in the mouth win by 30+ types of games.

    For the record:


    I think Notre Dame is a solid team across the board. They really aren't great at any one area.... But they're solid at every position. But this is a game where the matchups are not in their favor.

    Clemson will look lightening fast on Jerry's turf tonight. The skill at Clemson is silly right now and when you add all the depth they have.... that is where Clemson is hard to beat.

    I think this game comes down to Clemson's ability to run the ball with Etienne... the guy is scary good.... Lawrence will show off that arm and hit big passes...

    Love that your picks match up with the Massey system. I feel a sweep coming on today...hopefully. Speace_5ystem is 17-5 in all bowls right now, so not a bad system to match up with. Thanks for the insights and GL today. Your capping is top notch and I look forward to your write-ups on all the games.

    Boom, would you say your confidence level is very high on Michigan, and Virginia today ? Totally agree with you on Clemson, and Oklahoma covering.

    If Gators had a better QB and better QB play between the ears, I'd be on them and with a good chance to win. Franks is the lone problem holding back Mullen from returning Florida back to where they need to be.. Motivation will also be a factor, Gators will be up for sure as they haven't beaten Michigan yet, interested to see how up Wolverines will be after the way last game went, and Mullen has been in constant contact with Meyer, to scheme and prepare for that Michigan good solid defense, as Mullen still runs very much similar offensive style and game plan to Urban Meyers still to this day offensively speaking...

    Bamas weakness is not the secondary. It’s the LBers! Thompson and McKinney are 1st and 2nd round picks in NFL. The only thing OU has to beat Bama is Kyler Murray, and that’s a HUGE weapon! But you gotta know Saban has a plan / scheme to keep him in the pocket and force him to throw. OU will score, and will make big plays.. but this is not a B12 defense, Saban will do what Kirby did to OU and start coming after Murray!! On the other side, what can OU do to slow down Bama? Saban will do that for them, he will choke the clock and run run run run the ball to scores... this will be one of those games OU should’ve covered, but a big play or 2 late cost em.. 45-27 Bama..

    I was on Clemson YUGE when this game was announced.. Then I watched more ND games... This ND team is smart, and they don’t get out of position and give up big plays.. Clemson is stout DL, deep ball on offense.. the secondary is not good! And the run game is mediocre. Playing the ACC has not helped Clemson.. ND is a tuff team that will push them with a balanced , chain moving offense and play good defense. I like Clemson to win, because of that DL! But close, very close.. 27-24 Clemson
