Actually, it's points to winning three of the previous four National Titles. Winning 4 of 5 is darned near impossible. Players just can't be motivated the same way. That won't be a problem for Bama this year.

That wasn't a problem for bama until the IB last year. Your fanbase already had you beating FSU for the NC, before the IB. There was absolutely no way a one dimensional O would be able to do anything against that vaunted bama D. bama was only giving up 97 yards a game, on the ground, for goodness sakes. It wasn't a problem lasy year, until it was. After the fact, it was obvious bama had problems they had been hiding....or that's the company line anyway.
