Jeopardy Takes Shot At Notre Dame (SEC Related)

What an uneven matchup.

I honestly felt sorry for ND going into that game.

I just could never feel sorry for ND. I was hoping Bama would roll them and they did. Great game.

Probably

That was an even worse arse kicking than LSU's in 2006. I swear, all the Notre Dame alums were talking out their arse before that game. It was unreal.

Major homerism. Anyone outside of ND had to know that was coming

I was hoping Bama would train on them and Manti Te'O precisely because Te'O robbed Jarvis Jones and Clowney of all the major defensive awards on the back of his bogus-arse dead girlfriend story. Bama delivered and more.

All anyone would talk about was Teo. He lost millions that game; he was slow and worse yet he was pushed around all night long.

As an Auburn fan I didn't really care. I did kind of laugh at the way ND lost that game. I knew it was gonna happen. Hamas third string would have beaten ND that night. For Brian Kelly that was the writing on wall. He's now trying to schedule match ups with SEC school to recruit in our backyard.

True. If you didn't already know, all you had to do was look at the bowl performances of the teams that ND barely squeaked by during the season.

Admittedly, the Cotton Bowl scared the crap out of me. I felt like we had outplayed Oklahoma in Norman (and we won by 17), but A&M just trucked them. Stanford looked just OK in the Rose Bowl.

No one we had played up to that point had the horses to handle Tuitt, Nix, and Lewis-Moore straight up, and that had concealed some weaknesses at linebacker and safety that Alabama was able to expose big-time.

I actually contend that our team last year (2013) was more talented top-to-bottom and probably would have fared better against top-flight teams than the 2012 team if we had had anything approaching competent quarterback play last year. Tommy Rees made Jordan Jefferson look like Peyton Manning. We really pissed away what could have been a very good year last year.
