SMU has 385 yds (100 less than Hou) and has 66 pts
These announcers that keep blowing Oregon for the national championship will never learn. The last times they played teams with real defenses with time too prepare: Rose Bowl -Ohio St 26 Oregon 17, Nat Chshp- Auburn 22- Oregon 19 (Aub had an average SEC D then), 1st gm lyr LSU 40 Oregon 27.
I hope they do make it and play Florida or Alabama.Comment -
Seer, you have any opinion on Texas A&M this weekend? That Maisel kid is scary good and that team will be amped up. With LSU struggling on offense, I think they might win outright.Comment -

Good Job there Urban,That Teaser we talked about cashed too! 49ers & Ducks Ca-Cing! which I did have, I wanted to pound the Ducks @ -8 but I let all the damn Ariz St talk and with the line moving down and all the $ on Oregon made me steer clear and play conservative.That's alright though,plenty of money to be made this weekend! Good Luck this week-end!Comment -

And I feel for anyone that loses money, but my post was directed only to the antagonists who were on my case all week with insults, as well as talking like they were gurus of the SBR forum, telling me I was stupid, that I was giving my money away, that I did not know what the frick I was doing, and much more, so yes, it was a lot of fun slamming it down there throats, as they were pretty hard on me.Last edited by Urbanwildlife; 10-19-12, 01:12 AM.Comment -

The Alabama Crimson Tide are 43-0 since the start of the 2008 season when they run for at least 150 yards in a game. On Saturday, the Crimson Tide will play the Tennessee Volunteers, who rank last in the SEC in rushing.
This season, Alabama is averaging 6.2 yards per carry on designed run plays. That happens to be the same amount the Tennessee Volunteers allow per carry, which ranks last in the SEC.
Why is Alabama averaging so many yards per carry? On those designed run plays the Tide average 4.6 yards before contact with a defender. They have made it at least five yards past the line of scrimmage without being touched on 38.8 percent of their designed runs, including on 20-of-42 runs last week against Missouri.
When head coach Nick Saban’s team isn’t gaining yards by the bunches on the ground, quarterback A.J. McCarron is more than holding his own under center.
McCarron ranks fourth in FBS in third-down passing efficiency this season (minimum 20 attempts). One reason for McCarron’s success is his improvement when opponents send five or more pass-rushers. He’s completing 70.6 percent of his passes against the blitz on third down this season, up from 46.7 in 2011.
When Alabama sends five or more pass-rushers, opponents are completing 42.9 percent of their passes with more combined sacks and interceptions (13) than first downs (12). On Saturday, Missouri completed 1-of-9 passes and was sacked twice when Alabama blitzed, the third time in the past four games that Alabama had more sacks than its opponent had completions.
Tennessee quarterback Tyler Bray this season has completed a similar number of attempts when being blitzed by SEC opponents (43.3 percent). While Bray put up good numbers in non-conference play, he’s been average at best in Tennessee’s three SEC games, all losses. He’s completed just over 52.2 percent of his passes and has thrown just as many touchdowns as interceptions (6) in losses to Florida, Georgia and Mississippi State.
Alabama -20 23 unitsComment -
Never would have guessed which side you'd be on moody.
Also just saw your post above. That is why I went back to read Seer's posting in last years forum. After I saw his comment on the first half in the game this weekend and what his play was, I was like
and then after I read it I was like 
.... So like, I'm gonna probably like 
the Seer and tail his play, then 
during the game. After, I'm gonna 
my 
off while I collect the green.

Jk on message above.
Mr. Seer what you leaning toward tonight? GL in advance! I will be tailing as always.Comment -
Alabama in national championship last year was easiest pick ever, they dominated LSU in season game but loss by some luck, I had my entire roll on bama in national championship, something I never EVER do, but that shit was easiest pick ever...literallly....Comment -
Tailed last night and broke even, I would've bet the other way and lost. Thanks Seer! What's the call tonight?Comment -
Seer, I understand you know your football and either I believe coached it in college or played or both. Can you explain to me why so many schools like Texas or even Auburn which is perceived to have good athletes look so bad tackling? I see so many schools which should have good athletes that can't tackle. Is that a byproduct of not doing contact in practice? Or a product of poor technique from little coaching.I wonder if schools are not working on this in fear of getting injuries in practice. Take Alabama, they have NO problem tacking, but so many schools do. It seems on a fundamental level most schools are not near as good as they use to be. Your thoughts?Comment -
Yes I do. Both are coming off real disappointing losses from last week. UCONN lost in OT to Temple and Syracuse had twice as many yards & had 23 first downs while Rutgers had 12 but turned it over 4 times. To me, the only things I would consider are: take the points, the under, both, or nothing. I think taking the points is slightly stronger but I'm not playing anything more than a unit tonight.Comment -
moody, do you not remember the game last year where the Vols were without all of their star offensive players, started Matt Sims at QB, and had no run game whatsoever play Bammer to a 6-6 tie at halftime at Bammer just on pure emotion? You can throw all those stats out of the window. Considering Alabama hasn't played an offense with a pulse yet, that would be lunacy to play that many units laying that many points. The vols average over 180 rushing yards now and put up 200 vs Georgia & MS State and have the weapons to get a backdoor with ease. The best offense they played, Ole Miss put 14 points on them had as many first downs and lost by 19. I highly doubt they would lose by anymore than they did to Florida which was 17.Comment -
Play tonite?Comment -
From what I've observed, offenses are stretching the field horizontally and making the defenses defend more space in that way. It's has created more opportunities for offenses to get the ball in the hands of their wrs by way of short passes and hitches, etc and put them in more one on one matchups with defenders where the defender has to make an open field tackle. That's the hardest thing for a defender to do & what defenses try to keep from having to do. When they miss, they give up huge chunks of yardage since they're stretched. That's why defenses look like they are terrible at tackling. Also when it is stretched this way & just one defender is caught out of position, it opens up opportunities for huge gashes in the run game too. Think about how many times lately you've seen players on jet sweeps turn up in a lane and go the distance because of the open space. It happens on wr screens too and with these hurry up offenses alot of times you can catch a LB covering a back or Wr in the slot. It makes teams tired too since it takes more energy to play defense so they get sloppy in technique and have mental lapses & get caught out of position. Teams with alot of depth on defense that have ability to run players in all the time can defend it. Alabama is a team that can do that plus their have superior athletes that are bigger and just as fast on their defense compared to the other teams offense. If you have excellent cover corners you can shrink the field back down some and give the offense less space to work with. Shrinking the field down is a goal of any defense and a team like Alabama is able to do that. It also much easier when you can contain and not give up the edge & control the line of scrimmage so much so with your OLBers & Dline that there is no run game whatsoever. At that point you can play games with the QB. Alabama is well coached and very disciplined so they are rarely caught out of position so that helps also.Last edited by The Seer; 10-19-12, 06:39 PM.Comment
