re: Why does it seem like everybody is scared of playing Bama again?

Not scared. First of all, Bama wouldn't play in BCSCG if there was a playoffs that everyone clamors for as they did not win their own coference. Secondly, their defense ran out of gas as they do not substitute like we do. See overtime where they didn't run a rushing play and we run only rushing plays and Ford gets past them on the outside. We ground it out when they were tired. Would be worse in the Dome.
