I give ND credit because they took care of business. I'm not saying they stink. I'm just stating the obvious that Alabama has played a FAR tougher schedule. You can't even compare the two. SEC teams like Miss state and Tennessee are way better than Miami or Purdue.

ND can hold their own on defense, but their offense just leaves a lot to be desired.

The offense will score enough to win like they have done every week this year.

Get over it kids Bama isn't as good as you think. They have proved it against the three good SEC teams they have faced.


That is such a ridiculous argument. What kind of pace does A&M and Louisiana Tech play? They play hurry up, fast tempo, big play offense. Bama, like ND doesn't play that style, so OBVIOUSLY the score won't be near those totals. 

ND scored 13 lousy points against Michigan. Bama scored 41, 31 of those coming in the 1st quarter.
And ND had 239 yards of offense. 
So by your logic Alabama has the far superior offense.

Sure, scoring 13 is good enough to beat BYU and Navy.
Not Bama.

Saban is 7-6 SU with a month to prepare for a bowl game!

A+M D is not good, Bama should have been able to run over them just like they did UGA tonight but they couldn't. Maybe Bama's not as a great an offensive team as you believe. I don't know I don't care my money is on ND.

Alabama will run and pass on Notre Dame's defense at will.

Notre Dame's running and passing attacks are less than marginal.  They'll be lucky to score.

   Bama defense is a shell of itself..Even a bad Notre Dame offense will put up a couple touchdowns..The Irish will still lose, but you are greatly overestimating the defense of Alabama..They had a solid year, but are living a lot off of last year as well..

So What is your OU on bama points and yards? 40pts and 600 yards?

ND is overrated.  Did not have near the strength of schedule of any SEC team.   The GA vs Bama game unfortunately was for the national championship.  ND would not beat either one of these teams.  

ND's defense is "good", but they will not be able to handle the team speed of Bama.  Bama played a far more superior defense today and scored 32 points.  Plus they faced more superior LBs than Teo will be.

This NC game reminds me of the FL vs Ohio State game 6 years ago.  The media loved Ohio State in that game, but when the game started, the SEC speed became a reality.

30-40 point range.  Notre Dame will likely be in the 0-6 point range.

I will book all of your Notre Dame bets.

Told you I will take action on Bama has more non-scoring drives than scoring drives minus victory formations.

I said you can pay me at the game if you are going

haha

I will take ND over 6 and Bama under 40 as well. Hell why don't we parlay all three together. Bama has more non-scoring drives than scoring minus victory formations, ND TT over 5.5 and Bama TT under 40.5.  Half pts so no push and because you seem so utterly confident. Odds are all in your favor. Do we have a deal?

The bet is simple.  If Alabama scores more times than they punt, I win.  If they punt the same amount of times as they score, it's a push.  There's nothing subjective about it.  Very simple and an easy bet to grade.

I want to book all of your other Notre Dame bets as well.

Yeah, the #1 defense in the country is a shell of itself.

Actually there is..The idea behind your bet is that Bama is so dominant they will score more often than not, however it doesn't take into account turnovers.  So if it's punts+turnovers you have a deal, if not Bama could have 4 turnovers lose the game and I could lose my bet because you only punted twice. Look at other thread I wanted to parlay all three together.

Nd + whatever
