Great games again to watch yesterday. Clemson was lucky.  Hopefully for them they improve.  They don't look like the Clemson of last year.  Houston again tough time winning.

Alabama looked great against an over rated Vols team.  (Ya I gotta say it even though I love the Vols they've been lucky.)  Colorado State made someone nervous last night also. Two onside kicks recovered in last 4 minutes.

Wisconsin vs. Ohio State again great game.  Beating the Badgers at Camp Randall a tough task especially when you are behind. Michigan played them at home in the Big House.  The young OSU team is growing up and gaining experience.

Alabama doesn't really have any competition the rest of the way for them.  Ole Miss looks sloppy. LSU is weak.  A&M is over hyped. The depth of the SEC is shallow at best.  The Tide in a walk for the SEC Crown.

The BIG may be the deepest conference in the country.  Although I'm sure the ACC has something to say about that.

Not so close for Bama.  I expected a lot closer game and was relieved to see how well my team played.


Bama looks like a true number one team right now.  They score on defense and special teams with regularity and how about Jalen Hurts?  True freshmen and there is already talk of heismen with this kid.

Should be a better game next week.

Alabama has had 21 non-offensive TDs this season thus far.  They are not a fluke Hajo.  You can dislike Bama (and the SEC) but don't be in denial. 


I HOPE that Bama faces OSU in the CFP.  We will see a good game

As a hairy nut fan I am, I do not think tOSU will make it into the NC.  There is a good chance that the oversized weasels will beat them.

Wolverines are too springy.  :aok

Anyway, don't you want to liven things up with Michigan vs. Washington in the playoff?  :D

Not sure what "liven things up mean."  I guess you mean to say different teams show cased in the CFP, or the "game everyone wants"


I choose to root for Bama and hope they ruin all the Midwest fan's holiday with yet another NC. :ahand

The young OSU defense has scored 4 touchdowns themselves.  I like being the underdog to Alabama.  Worked last time we faced them.  OSU is very young.  They are playing in difficult places to win.

Playing in Norman Oklahoma and in Camp Randall is no picnic.  Both ranked teams.  Looks like they'll face the #3 team ranked in the country also.  Long time to go. Maybe Paul Finebaum will follow

with another book (Vol 2).  I hope so!
