January 7, 201016 yr I love Nick Saban but I gotta say...."Hook 'em Horns!!". I'm tired of the SEC winning it every year.
January 7, 201016 yr Thats alright fellows, it would be no fun out here if we all pulled for the same team. Bama won it 1993/Texas 2006. The SEC has no effect for us, we just got stuck there.
January 7, 201016 yr I agree. TCU would beat Texas if they played. The Horned Frogs would be a better opponent for Alabama. I meant to say Boise State would be a better opponent.
January 7, 201016 yr I love Nick Saban but I gotta say...."Hook 'em Horns!!". I'm tired of the SEC winning it every year. I hope the SEC wins it every year. If UK can't win it, and they haven't since 1951 (yes, they won it that year, beating #1 Oklahoma in the Sugar Bowl), then I hope that UK's conference can win it. Same for basketball. One thing I don't like about this BCS setup is that, other than the national championship game, the other bowl games really don't mean very much. They could be so much more important if they were incorporated into a playoff system. The ratings for the bowls would be much higher. The way it is now who cares who wins the Outback Bowl other than the fans of the teams involved. Place the Outback in a playoff concept and that immeadiately changes.

I like Bama alot better than Texas. I just get sick of the SEC winning all of the time. It would be okay if there was a tourney or a plus-1 and they kept winning. I just think they always get in the title game right or wrong. Bama deserves to play for the Championship though IMO. They are the best team in the country IMO as well.

My allegiance to Miami will not allow me to want UF to win the title. I can't cheer for Bama this year for some reason either. Just want to see another conference win one.
January 7, 201016 yr Bamas d is near great but their offense is not as good. Texas defense is very good and their offense is very good. I would like to see an SEC team win but I think Texas will win to balanced between O and D. Texas by 10.
January 7, 201016 yr Bama 27 Texas 13 Texas has NO run game and you can't be one dimensional against this Bama D. As long as Bama keeps the Texas D honest with Julio and Peek catching some passes, I don't see this one being that close.
January 7, 201016 yr What I despise the most about this game is the fact it takes place so long after their final regular season game. I believe it has been 33 days now! How can you expect either of the teams to be sharp on offense or defense? To me these games are such a tossup for that fact alone.
January 7, 201016 yr Author All I've heard today on TV is Texas O vs. Alabama D........... Won't Alabama's O and Texas's D be playing also?????? LOL
January 7, 201016 yr Bamas d is near great but their offense is not as good. Texas defense is very good and their offense is very good. I would like to see an SEC team win but I think Texas will win to balanced between O and D. Texas by 10. Seriously? Bama destroyed UF's defense. UF's defense destroyed UC's offense that was suppose to be one of the best in the Nation. Just because Alabama's offense isn't a spread offense doesn't mean it isn't elite. -Great offensive line?.....Check. Maybe the best in the country -Good stable of RB's?.....Check. Heisman winner along with a highly touted frosh. -Solid QB play?.......Check. Last few games McElroy has been solid. -Good WR core?............Still questionable but who wants to defend Julio Jones? IMO that's a pretty good offense. Edited January 7, 201016 yr by CatsCatsCats
January 7, 201016 yr What worries me is loke how we played against Auburn for the first 4 quarters and also the vols. It hasn't been a easy road, and to be fair the same for the Horns against the Huskers. I also have told people why do we have to wait 30 days, lets play next week and I believe we would have played real well. 4 hours away to kickoff. Mailman stopped me and wished us luck. I hear you on the radio a lot he told me, I thought that was so nice.
January 7, 201016 yr I'm pulling for the Tide, but not sure if they can score enough TD's to beat Texas........Texas 24 Alabama 19

IMO that's a pretty good offense. Yep seriously, I think Texas by 10. Never said that Bamas offense was not good. I said there offense is not as good as their defense. What does spread offense have to do with what I said? As far as the UF/UC game what happened to the UC offense is exactly what I posted would happen. Texas offense is more diverse than UF, with a much better passing game and a down the field passing game threat that UF lacked.

I thought you were saying Bama didn't have a good offense, which I would have to disagree.:thumb:
