They're always "the better team." But sometimes "they just fail to execute." The Sugar Bowl looked like a Soviet-style execution on the part of the Sooners.
OKLA ALA
1st Downs 24 20
3rd down efficiency 7-15 6-12
4th down efficiency 1-1 0-0
Total Yards 429-516
Passing 348 387
Comp-Att 32-44 19-30
Yards per pass 7.9 12.9
Rushing 81 129
Rushing Attempts 30 35
Yards per rush 2.7 3.7
Penalties 11-95 6-45
Turnovers 1 5
Fumbles lost 0 3
Interceptions thrown 1 2
Possession 30:55 29:05

So Alabama had nearly 100 yards more offense, but turned the ball over 5 times to Okla's 1......and it looked like an "execution"....that should just about sum up your "knowledge" of football.
