Not exactly a walkover. They squeaked it out, despite rolling up all those yards.

The Dawgs were a much better team tonight than most people exspected(including me.) Roll Tide. Can the SEC continue the BCS domination?

Over Notre Lame? All day long.......
I personally can't wait to see yet another Notre Lame exposure in a Bowl Game.
I personally, wouldn't take ND and 17 against Bama.

ROLL TIDE!!!!!!
It doesn't get any better than the Crimson Tide vs. The Irish for it all.
I believe there are three teams in the SEC that would beat ND. Possibly four.

I thought it would be a close game but Wow that was too close.
Kind of amazing that we ran the ball for 350 yards but the game was so close. I guess the mistakes we made helped even up the game. Georgia had a lot to do with those mistahes, they played a great game.
Now, bring on ND.
Roll Tide!

Roll Tide! Notre Dame will be embarrassed when that game is over. The media, (NBC for sure) is always looking for a reason to put ND on a pedestal. It's been awhile since they have been able to. I am sure those in media land are wishing the "Chosen School" was NOT playing 'Bama.
Great classic last night but even with some serious mistakes the better team came out on top. I have more respect for the Dawgs this season though.
As for Ohio State...I am glad the Buckeyes get another year under Urban Meyer to get ready to win a national title. Even at 12-0 they were not ready for Alabama yet. I used to live in Tuscaloosa as a kid so I am torn between the Bucks and 'Bama when they play each other. I watched Ken the snake Stabler quarter back sitting next to my Dad..those were the other 'Bama glory years.

The SEC championship is the real National Championship game. Just like it was last year. The winner gets to play in a meaningless exhibition game in January-just like last year

Sure hope that some of you people know more about guns than you do about football and what does and does not qualify as a class school.

Based on Caj's logic, the LSU v. South Carolina should be the national championship game to watch!

Got news for you guys, Bama's probably is the best college football team in the country but Notre Dame is going to give them all they want.

You've got that right. Notre Dame are big underdogs so they have something to prove. One other thing since their an NBC associate they'll probably be wearing anti gun sloagans on their uniforms. Do you think the producers will be out there telling everyone not to throw the ball to hard or hit to hard so no one will get hurt or break a nail. Lol!

As much as it really, really, really pains me to say this, it's probably a good thing that the Dawgs did not win the game in the last minute. Being unable to stop the run like that might have proved embarrassing in the National Championship game. Bringing the National Championship home to the SEC where it belongs is the important thing and I guess it just wasn't our turn.
Now that the mutual admiration hogwash is over with, what the heck was the ref thinking when he let that Tide defensive thug get away with that cheap shot on Aaron Murray?
In what football world does that not draw a personal foul?
Edit: I just read in the Atlanta Journal the SEC has already said they were reviewing the play and that, if Dial (the thug) did take a cheap shot at Murray, he could be suspended for the National Championship game. Since the replay shows he went to Murray's head and Murray was not in a position to make the tackle plus the SEC has already said the officials missed calling a personal foul on the play, looks like Dial may be watching the game on television with the rest of us.

And what about the Georgia guy trying to stick his finger in the Bama guy's eye?
Just saying.
Just saying.
That's different, dont'cha'know.
That's just good, hard-nosed football.
Our young scholar-athlete wasn't trying to do any permanent damage.
Your thug was trying to disable our QB.

That was wrong also. Any player taking a cheap shot at another player when it could lead to injury needs to sit out at least one game. Let's face it, the zebras were not in control of that game. There weren't any major fights or anything like that but it was not well officiated for either team. A few weeks ago the ACC announced the suspension of some officials from several different games for failing to properly officiate those games. One of the suspensions was for failing to maintain control of a game. If the SEC doesn't do that already, maybe they should look into it.
BTW, several reporters that cover the NFL after watching Dial's hit on Murray tweeted that would have cost him $25,000 in the NFL.

Good thing it is not like in the NFL, he can't afford that.
Quinton is a good kid that made a bad decision. For those that don't know he is a present day "The Blind Side" story. He lives with a white family that are members of our church because he had a terrible family life at home.
While I don't think he will have the success Micheal Oher had I do hope he takes advantage of his opportunity to get a college education while at UA.

Here is a good article about a couple of UA players from the past, and a UA coaching legend. I believe I recall reading an article back in the mid 70s or so that UA graduated a higher percentage of the athletes that they recruited than most any other school. I am not a UA fan, except when they are playing bowl games against non-SEC schools, but I have to respect their success, and I was always a Bear Bryant admirer.

Two of my favorite football jokes involve UA and Bear Bryant:
1) At one point in his career, Bryant broke a leg or hip. Official reports were that Bryant had slipped getting out of the shower. His detractors snickered that he was drunk and had fallen. True Tide believers knew that the real story was that The Bear was out on the lake early one Sunday morning walking his ducks and a motor boat ran over him.
2) In the 1984 Iron Bowl (UA v Auburn) Auburn trailed by one late in the game. Auburn was fourth and one on Alabama's one yard line. Instead of taking the Chip shot field goal and letting the defense take over, Pat Dye chose to go for it. The story is that Dye, a religious man, whispered a little prayer, "What to do?" A voice immediately came back . . . "Run Brent Fullwood off right tackle, Jackson blocking." Dye sent in the play, Fullwood was thrown for a loss when "wrong way Bo" blocked to the left rather than the right. Alabama ran the clock out, winning 17-15. As Dye ran off the field, he whispered another prayer . . . "Lord, why did you tell me to run that play?" A voice came back, "Pat, I just don't know. Bear, why did we tell him to do that?"

Ya'll remember that sissy Spider Man looking looking uniform UGA wore for one game last year? Never saw it again after that game. Who's idea was that and what happened to it? Was the designer burned at one of the pep rallies?

My understanding is they were basically forced to do it for one game by the supplier of the uniforms. I believe it was Nike.I agree they were bad.They looked like Power Rangers.
It was the SEC championship game and the zebras we're
just lettin' em' play football.
What's a little shot to the head or an eye gouge?
Everyone wants to turn the game into flag football.
It's a contact sport and the NFL is turning into "Dancin'
with the Stars". I hope they don't do the same to the college
game. If the kids want to figure skate, or do the syncronized
swimming thing they can. Just try making a living doing that.
The NFL and major college football have made a killing off
of big hits and dazzling passes/runs. To fine a player or make
them sit out a game is hypocritical at best. The refs did'nt see
it or call it (move on).
