still feel the same.

Bama ONLY played three good teams all year and could have easily lost all three games.

Bama is a quality team, but not great, just like ND.

I was thinking about this earlier actually. I originally had ND's chances around 10%, now I think it's more like 35-40%. If OU beats TAMU by 2 possessions I think I may put it at 50/50

Bama wins 28-10, they won't be able to match Bama's speed.

The sec has been overrated for a long time. These loses do not change my opinion at all.

Never changed my thoughts on the game.

But then, I always expected Notre Dame to win.

Didn't read through the thread so don't know if this has been said, but it doesn't change my thought at all. These games have been a bunch of unmotivated, disappointed kids mad that they aren't playing in the title game playing againsta bunch of kids who are in the game of their lives.

Well, FL played the toughest SOS in the country, finished 11-1, and got bashed last night by a Big East team.

I'm not really sure how that makes them overrated. UF is what they are:

1) great special teams
2) great defense
3) horrible offense

Its a wonder they won 11 games this year.

I've always had a small gut feeling ND would pull it out. These bowl games have proven the SEC is vastly overrated this year. I think ND wins.

Posted by a Bama fan. Not biased at all. That's one of the things they were saying about Utah a couple of years ago.

cept this time, Notre Dame is filled with good prospects.

I'm sure none of them run a 4.4 at all. Every one of them run a 4.7.

Silliest fricking post I've seen from a Bama guy in a while.

This is true, but I am just not sure ND is all that great either.

One thing in their favor is where the teams are staying though. Bama is staying at the Fountainbleau with two of the top nightclubs in the country or world inside the hotel (Liv and Akadia) with events everynight and a huge event Saturday night. I think it will be interesting to see how tight a leash Saban has on them. They are going to see things and more hot arse than they have seen their entire life the next 72 hours if they are allowed out of their rooms unsupervised.

ND is staying at a peaceful non-partying hotel in a quiet area - Diplomat in Hallandale.

Why would a game between two teams who didn't play either of the teams in the title game in any way affect my opinion of the title game?
