    i agree that bama is the best team this year, but giving me 6/7 pts here? I'll take it every time. Texas has a better QB than Florida, and their defense will play better.

    Bama is an unreal defense, some great runners and the best coach in the nation, which is why they are favored. Give me McCoy vs McElroy all day long though..

    Mcelroy was better than McCoy Saturday.....This will be a great game I am very excited, and I feel very strongly I am on the right side. Thats why I have real coin on it too.

    Ppl r puting to much into wat Bama did to Fla if they played the game on sunday it could have been different. Ppl put alot on how tough Auburn played Bama. Then Bama beat down Fla. Every game is different anything can happen. I hate Bama with everything inside me but Texas hasnt played a team close to wat Bama is and Im not sure Texas will be the best team Bama has played Texas is a shakey team in a weaker conference. Texas could win the game i just wouldnt put money on it and I want bet on this game cause i would have to put my money on bama and i cant cheer for them.

    I remember Texas vs USC and I was on Texas back then but this Alabama team is truly a dominate force when the game truly matters. Yes Tennessee could have won that game and yes that was the same Alabama team but a different mentality. Texas has weapons but in the games thisseason wherethey faced a decent defense they struggled. they still won but struggled. alabama is no Nebraska, no Oklahoma either. This Alabama team is an absolute BEAST.

Mac brown did all he could do to make Neb. sound like a great football team to justify Tex poor performance against a great Defense. Last time I checked Bama had a pretty good Defense too....The defensive speed of Bama will be evident on Jan 7....The players are focused as well. While the clock was running out at the Fla. game 2 players wanted to dump water on coach Saban. Mclain stopped them and said we are not finished yet, we have one more game...I live in his home town and all his friends say he is going pro after this season and him and Julio want a prefect season and a ring before they go.

    Here are some examples of people who understand football and power of the SEC conference. Texas, is in a bad spot here folks. The only teams they played against that were decent gave them fits. They think Nebraska plays defense... They are in for a surprise. I watched Bama in the SEC championship and the spped of there defense is unreal. Even with Forida's missing parts in that game, Florida is way better than Texas.

    Thanks Hold em hook,

    We are on and I will be here to pay up right after the game should I lose. I will not even gamble those points in the book, I will transfer 300 points over here and leave them here so I wont be tempted to bet them.

    Our bet is confirmed, Good luck at the game.

    Tough one here. McCoy could get on fire, he is a game changer. Alabama should win this but McCoy is a big step up from the Bama QB. And QB is an important position. I like Alabama but it won't be easy, Texas has athletes just as good as Alabama's. Texas is like an SEC team.

    We have been fooled by the weak Big 10 conference letting Ohio St and their slow pokes get through to the title game and then get shell shocked by a real team with real athletes. That won't happen this year.

    I think this will be a good game but Alabama has a very good defense and they are well coached. Nick Saban is very good at preparing his team for bowl games. I think he will have his team ready. He even said it in the USA Today that this game is going to be a good game and Texas is no pushover. I think he knows that this game is going to be a good one. I just think Alabama has a championship defense that can stop anyone. They always say a good defense can win you championships and that is the case here. Alabama has the better defense and they should unless their offense turns it over too much they should win the game not a problem. It is Texas offense I worry about. If they play like they did against Nebraska they will get run out of the building by half. They better not turn it over against Alabama or you will lose badly. I still believe that who wins the turnover battle will win the game here no doubt. I pick Alabama to win by about 10 points here because of their defense. They will get the turnovers needed for their offense to have short fields to work with. Like they did against Florida.

    an ass for putting money on alabama.....are u really this dumb? Florida still had big time athletes all over the place. That was the true championship. Did u watch Texas play real defenses like oklahoma and nebraska? They couldnt do shit....now they have to play the BEST defense that have had a month to prepare for colt mccoy and jordan shipley

    Ya Im sure Saban will have a tough time stopping them.

    Are you discounting Alabama's defense??? Is that the same Texas team that allowed over 30 points to A&M? I don't think Texas has that great of a defense and that will make the difference in that game. The saying gos tltaylor defense wins championships. Ask the Baltimore Ravens when they had a good defense when they won their Super Bowl a few years back.

    Once again you are an idiot...I dont respect anything about Texas or the Big12(2)....But fortunately for me and my bank-roll the Team listens to the coach and not me. I dont have to respect Texas, I dont play a down for Alabama..Coach Saban will not allow Bama to over-look or dis-respect Tex. I am a fan not a player.....

    The spread is 5 man. McCoy was 14 in the nation in passing yards this year, Texas was 3rd in points scored.

    Defensively Texas is 3rd in the nation in yards allowed per game. 1st in defending the run.

    HoldEm I am a Georgia season ticket holder for 15 years. I watch every SEC game I can, and am a huge fan of the conference. I am telling you guys that Texas has athletes as good as Alabama. Look at their recruiting the past 4 years on rivals.com. Compare the 2 schools recruiting.

    Lyon they have to play the schedule they were dealt. They cant help that the big 12 was weak. They still dominated.

    My point is that they have athletes as good as Alabama and they have a better QB. Alabama will not roll in this game. If the spread goes to 7 I am all over Texas.

    I love this one... 1st in defending the run!! Did you noit see late in the 3rd and 4th quarter A&M running down Texas's throat... They were really not interested in tackling there runnig back.. Especially the secondary. Alot of weak arm tackling I saw by Texas. Alabama has two backs better than that with a very physical offensive line. Alabama migh rush for 300 yds against Texas.

    who did Texas score all those points on
    was it the same calibre defenses as Fla, Tenn, LSU...

    suckers said the same thing last year about OU averaging 60 a game and how Fla was going to get lit up.
    we saw what happened.
    the difference will be the speed and the domination of the line of scrimmage.

    Recruiting:

    2006: Texas 5 Alabama 11
    2007: Texas 5 Alabama 10
    2008: Alabama 1 Texas 14
    2009: Alabama 1 Texas 5

    That is close. The scary thing is that most of Alabama's great players are underclassmen. Texas has the edge in older talent.

    I called the SEC to blowout the past 3 years their opponent. This year it will not happen. Alabama will not blowout Texas, I guarantee it will be a close game. I am the biggest SEC fan you will find. No other conference is close. But put Texas in the SEC and they would have possibly won it this year. Texas and Oklahoma are 2 teams that get their talent from east Texas and could compete for the SEC title almost every year. Except this year of course for Oklahoma.

    Winner! I like you dude! Always have something insightful to say! Most of these people here just look at rankings and stats and don't really understand the nature of the beast they are talking about. I watched the SEC champuionship in person... The speed of the BAMA defense and the power of there O-LINE is unmatched... The silver lining to all this... People think Mcelroy is a weak quarterback. Let me tell you.. Of the passes he threw they were all crisp tight spiraled and on spot. he would have had a bigger game had #8 Jones could catch. That is the one part of Alabama that is overrated.. Julio Jones was supposed to be the best reciever we have ever seen. Highly touted recruit that drops about 1/3 of the passes that hit him in the hands. He is tall and looks the part of a big time reciever, but he hasn't materialized.

    lyon what about the Tennessee and Auburn games that Alabama almost lost? Every team has a few bad games during the year.
