Bama in bowl games is a weird bet. They are still in the NC hunt, so I expect Bama to be ready to play. This isnt a consolation game like last years Sugar Bowl. I think Bama wins this one.

I really hope the NC game is Oregon vs Bama. Great game and unlike when AU played Oregon in 2010, Oregon has a seriously excellent quarterback.

Mainly I am hoping both Meyer and Fisher get punked.

yep I really think people are underestimating this Ohio state team. Urban Meyer has them playing outstanding and you know he will have them ready for this game.


I think they're actually starting to become overrated. Just like ND 2012. Not comparing those teams but the experts are starting to get a bit crazy on us with some of these stats and shite.

It's gone from they'll have to contain Coop and Alabama will need to hold Bosa(sp) in check and Cardale Jones will need to be productive to...

OSU will double Coop or roll coverage to him and their secondary is so good so what will Alabama do?! And Alabama has a freshman left tackle people! How will he ever stop this insane pass rush?! And Cardale Jones throws a beautiful deep ball and OSU has blazing fast WRs so how will Alabama stop them?!

Same thing they did with ND. It was how will Alabama attack this smothering defense?! Well, they'll show ya.

I honestly believe this OSU team is leaps and bounds better than that ND squad. Looking forward to watching this one.

OSUmw is on their third string QB who has how much starting experiencing now? One game?

Saying this OSUmw squad is leaps and bounds better than that ND squad is not saying much.

I picked against only one SEC team but I feel we could go 6-6 easily. Lots of money coming, though.

It seems nearly every year folks see a sweep happening, but it never comes to fruition. There are too many variables in these games, even if the SEC team is more talented and tested.

You are being a ridiculous pessimist.

Don't you remember how bad Grantham was as a coordinator?

He couldn't hold Florida Atlantic to 3 points let alone Georgia.

Kentucky put up 40 against Loserville.

Georgia will put up more than that.

Not at all really when the national championship is in play.

TCU vs Ole Miss is gonna be interesting. Wondering if the OM defense, good as it is, can contain that offense.


It's the type of offense they're built to stop, but TCU's offense is really good.

I think it will be a tough go of it for the SEC teams not named Bama, LSU, and UGA.

I think UGA loses, but put Arkansas in your list instead and I agree. Most of the rest of the games could really go either way.

I would put Auburn and Arkansas as the next two most likely to win.

An SEC sweep is not happening. Too many even matchups. The way Ohio St manhandled a good Wisky team, I even have doubts about mighty Bama winning thiers.


Wait what...the Gumps are going to put an aggy type arse whipping on Ohio St. At least they damn well better. Admittedly...my hate for the Gumps is more of a competitive kinda hate but my hate for Urban is real. 38-10 Gumps. Ole Piss will struggle without their best player so that's the biggest ?? as to the SEC teams. LSU is so up/down that it's really difficult to predict what will happen in our game. How hard is it to predict ND's game plan? Stack the box and force us to throw the ball.

10 out of 11 I picked.

Auburn loses to Wisconsin running attack the same way Georgia blew them out.

It is not so much about Louisville as it is about Georgia. I think they have very little at stake in this game and am not sure if they will show up.

If you were looking at who is more motivated, I would think Petrino has the edge. Again, if Georgia showed up and played to their potential it would not be close, but I have serious doubts that will happen.
