    I still say the avg joe reads the Tam loss all wrong. The last 3 qts (2nd , 3rd & 4th) of that game are the better indicators of Ala's metal than the 1st Qt

    pretty good when you wind up in the title game during a re-building year. But I think they got there this year based on the reputation of the SEC more so than being deserving of it.

    Oregon looks like a better team than both Notre Dame and Alabama to me.

    But yeah Alabama did play much better in the 2nd half and they still should have won that game if it wasn't for stupid play calling and costly turnovers.

    The thing that was disturbing about Alabama in that game was their poor play in the secondary. I know Johnny Football is good but I saw some sloppy tackling and some really bad blown coverages...

    Notre Dame's offense is not very explosive and this helps Alabama and I think Alabama wins the game but 10 points may be too much to give up here.

    I really want to take Alabama -10 out of principal and make Notre Dame prove me wrong but i'm still thinking it over...

    Alabama minus whatever. Pretty much a mismatch at every level.

    Oregon played a big defensive line in Stanford who completely shut Oregon down. I would honestly feel more comfortable with Bama -10 against Oregon than ND. I could see Nick saban telling his running backs to slow down the drives to run out the clock to keep Oregon offense off the field.

    ND +10 is already booked, I really think that around kick off it will be +7,5 maybe + 8

    I have been extremely impressed with Utah State this year but i have not seen Toledo play all year..

    I took a glance at Toledo's schedule and they havent lost a game by more than 7 points all year!

    I've been riding Utah st all year. Not gonna jump off now. 11-1 against the spread I believe. U might be right though Toledo is no slouch. In any case I've already made my play on Utah st -10.
