Remember the scene from The Dark Knight Rises with the football field crumbling? Yeah that needs to happen. Although I do hear that fans should bring an umbrella or rain jacket due to Lou Holtz being in attendance tonight.
What is worse Alabama fans capturing their third national championship in four years or Notre Dame fans who have been chomping at the bit to show their Irish pride for the last 25 years?
I vote the Notre Dame fans and for that reason alone I hope that Alabama wins. Also, if they win hopefully Saban leaves which will set the stage for the biggest upset in Virginia Tech's history #BEATBAMA
I can (kind of) stomach Alabama fans because the team has actually earned it. When Alabama was struggling in the late 90s/early 2000s, you really didn't hear the arrogance from them as we have from ND fans over the last 20 years. I cannot imagine how annoying they'd be if ND won.
ND just isn't the hate vessel they used to be to me anymore. Which is shocking, because I do not like Brian Kelly at all. Maybe it is some fundamental appreciation of how they played this year....which is to say...Beamerball at its best. Watch Everett Golston and tell me that's not Tyrod Taylor......
There is an interesting angle to this game tonight: future NFL Hall of Famer Nick Saban's last college game! Yay!
This is like picking between Nazi Germany and the USSR. As a staunch southern advocate I might alter every bit of my history and root for the domers for two reasons:
1. Go ACC (sort of)
2. If ND wins they'll be the only team in history to have won the National Championship and
have the highest graduation rate. That is the type of team I'd rather have on the top than the likes of the $EC. Even if their fans are unbearable.
When you take a group of students with below average admissions metrics, why do we celebrate how many of them graduate? Shouldn't it be harder to graduate from your school, not easier?
I just don't want to hear Lou Holtz blathering on about Notre Dame. I want them to lose purely because of how annoying that man is... And I want them to be getting rocked the whole game so I don't have to hear him at halftime either....
the Dark Lord Saban....can't stand ND...didn't like Brian Kelly when he was at UC, either. On the positive side, if Bama wins, the possibility of seeing more of A.J. McCarron's mom goes up.
Let's say ND wins tonight. Well, the aging sportswriters of this great land will surely fire up a massive circle-jerk for the potential to have ND and resurgent tOSU in the National Championship next season. Their 1960s midwest-biased collective stroke session will last deep into the season whereupon ND will lose to a shitty opponent (Air Force sounds like a likely candidate). However, because they'll win out against powerhouse football schools Navy, Pitt, BYU, and Stanford, the Kornheisers of the USofA will do all in their power to put ND in the National Championship game again...this time against Corch Urbans Meyers'ss (Corrine Brown reference) the Ohio State University.
than another SEC vs SEC title game, which could be likely if Alabama wipes the floor with Notre Dame proving that no one else other than SEC teams belong in the title game.
gushing over ND makes me wanna puke. I hope 'Bama hangs 70 on them, can't stand the whole old school entitlement aura...this is America, at least the Tide isn't resting on their laurels and have kicked serious ass in recent memory. They might reek of arrogance, but it ain't braggin if it's true.

"Rule #9: Calling a touchdown before the player actually scores. For example, during an interception return, Brent says "It's a touchdown!" before the player actually scores. In this case, everyone must start drinking and continue to drink until the player actually does score. If by some odd event, the player does NOT score, everyone must finish their drink."
Fuck bama, fuck the sec. Shit is getting quite old. I'm sick of the sec. If nd wins they won repeat agian next season so I can handle it for the offseason. And I want to beat Sabah and all those blue choppers our way to prove they ain't shit.
A wise man once told me that in games like this (where you don't really want to see either team win), root for the Iranian Nuclear program. I guess I'll reluctantly cheer for Bama, because their fans will be quieted on August 31st. ND fans would be insufferable for the next 25 years.
Johnnie Walker Blue, Glenmorangie 18 yr ER, Larceny, Jefferson's Presidential Reserve 18 yo, Crown reserve in the decanter. I'm a whisk(e)y man. What can I say!
I hate the SEC. They have had the best football conference in college footaball for at least the last five years. They have won the last 7 national titles and I hate that I have to turn the CBS and listen to two senile old farts jerk off to Nick Saban and Les Miles every time I want to watch a good football matchup.
But this bowl season the SEC has had a chip taken off it's pedistal for the first time in a long time. LSU loses to Clemson (#goacc), Florida loses to Louisville (#goacc), SC is one play away from losing to Michigan (serves those blue sonsabitches right), and UGA was in a dog fight when they were heavy favorites.
Bama losing to ND would be a huge slap in the face in the eyes of SEC fans, they can no longer waive their national title grip in our face, they have to start realizing that their reign may be coming to an end and other schools are catching up.
I hate both teams so I'm not gonna lose sleep either way. I will say though, that if Bama is gonna win, I hope they blow ND out of the water so the fair-weather ND fans can go back into hiding for now.
but I am tired of the SEC and ready for some new blood. Who do i think will win, I think it will be a tough 1st half, but Bama blows it open in the 2nd half. Bama has a tough D, same as ND, but Bama has a much better ground game and a good QB.
my heart says ND but my gut tells me for us to become god of college football we need to beat the back to back defending national title champ... very conflicting
This has got to be the best game ever played by an offensive line in a national championship game.The holes for lacy and yeldon are huge, and McCarron's only been touched once. Thank god most of them (jones, warmack, fluker) will be long gone by August.
Next years matchup has the makings for potentially one of our greatest games ever. Think about it: Bama will have little to no respect for us and they'll be higher than a hippie in Colorado. We'll have a new OC who they have little to no film on during their preparation. We'll have a senior Q. with tons to prove, a hungry rookie running back, and a defense that finally lives up to its preseason hype. This could really happen. Buckle your chinstraps boys, we're about to slay Goliath.

I am rooting for a hurricane or earthquake as tonight's game will be the largest assembly of obnoxious sidewalk alumni in the history of sports.
This post has been sanitized with sarcasm for your protection.

Granny Holtz will probably break his hip before the game...
Let's hope. Should ND win, I believe he might die from excitement...or from drowning himself in his own saliva
DKR
Just finally saw it last week and would have to say that would be the best outcome for this game.
I wish they could both lose
The REAL question
Is which will be the greater sum, Bama's points or McCarron's shoe collection
I've got my money on him crying again.
don't like either but i'm tired of seeing bama win all the time
... so i'm going for the domers
... but i think bama wins by 10 (20-10)

Alabama because I hate Notre Dame fans and I want to play against the defending national champs in Atlanta.
I think Bama wins pretty easily.

Gotta go with Bama
Notre Dame is much more annoying than the SEC winning its 43rd consecutive championship.
Plus, it will be much more gratifying to knock off the defending national champion when we #BEATBAMA
I think I actually dislike Bama more these days.
ND just isn't the hate vessel they used to be to me anymore. Which is shocking, because I do not like Brian Kelly at all.

Bama will win by 15+
ND is Duke, Bama is UNC
Both are extremely hated, but Duke is Duke. And everyone really hates Duke because they are really big bitches.

Plus I have Team SEC fatigue
Why do people value graduation rates?
When you take a group of students with below average admissions metrics, why do we celebrate how many of them graduate? Shouldn't it be harder to graduate from your school, not easier?
You can argue that or you just look at the alternative. Team $EC.
Awesome Metaphor
Neither?
What do I dislike more, Nonstop SEC love or random bandwagon fans??
I guess I'm just gonna root against SEC tonight...
WHY COULDN'T OREGON OR KANSAS ST WIN OUT?!
im just real sick of the sec i just can't bring myself to pull for bama
Im rooting
for a good game I love bowl season but a lot of the games have been boring this year
Roll Tide
if even one player leaves early because they win the national championship, it's worth it for them to win
Lou Holtz is awful.
I just don't want to hear Lou Holtz blathering on about Notre Dame. I want them to lose purely because of how annoying that man is... And I want them to be getting rocked the whole game so I don't have to hear him at halftime either....
Bama has at least earned their moon-sized egos...
Gotta go for
the Dark Lord Saban....can't stand ND...didn't like Brian Kelly when he was at UC, either. On the positive side, if Bama wins, the possibility of seeing more of A.J. McCarron's mom goes up.
Even Better
A.J.'s girlfriend
Yeah,
I forgot about that....her too!
Can we get an interview with Johnny Football tonight (with model/girlfriend on arm)?
Well that solidifies my choice of Alabama to win. They clearly have the confidence.
Nick Saban's daughter...
Screw the rings, I'm sure this is all he has to show to his recruits
Don't let Musburger see this, he'll probably have a heart attack
I just posted another pic of her in the Exum thread. She is 29383 times better than Webb IMO.
Nah, I'll take a brunette over a blonde.
It's not Nick Saban's daughter
There are two Kristen Sabans and one looks like that, and the other is Saban's daughter.
Really? Link a pic to the other.
So the real Miss Saban is only kinda hot...
am i losing my mind? that's not the same girl?
The other one looks kinda smaller in the shoulders. I guess I just gained a little extra free time in Atlanta this August.
Nose is different too
Saban's daughter has a MUCH wider nose
#1 Please
I'm just going to pretend she's the first picture...

THIS CANNOT HAPPEN.

You know
the press is salivating to have a ND offseason lovefest. I can't stand ND.
Rather have that
than another SEC vs SEC title game, which could be likely if Alabama wipes the floor with Notre Dame proving that no one else other than SEC teams belong in the title game.
I DON'T CARE WHO "WINS", BUT MY MANTRA OF EVERY WEEKEND IN THE FALL RINGS TRUE:
I WANT NOTRE DAME TO LOSE.
AJ McCarron's chest tat...
will be the sole reason I root for the domers tonight.
its just ridiculous...
Now if a tat like that
gets him a lady like that (see pic above), I might consider getting a tattoo
I wouldn't be so sure it's a tat...
Now, if you went back to college, became a starting quarterback and won a couple national championships, that might help a bit.
AJ McCarron can work miracles.
He makes me feel sorry for Phillip Sims. What a douche.
holy crap, yup pulling for nd
I'm rooting for Bama.
AJ's mom is in the middle via http://outkickthecoverage.com/all-that-and-a-bag-of-mail-sabans-retireme...
Thank you!
A nice mid-day pick-me-up!
"Are they built for comfort, or built for speed?? Did you motorboat? You motorboatin' son of a bitch! Where is she? Is she still in the house??"
I think we can all agree
that one way or another, they are built, and are not naturally occurring phenomenon....but are nonetheless phenomenal.
I'm gonna say AJ's mom's are built for comfort and AJ's gf's for speed
Have to wonder if she received some treatments courtesy of a 'Bama booster...
"I already have two national titles!" - Momma McCarron
the thought of Brent Musburger

i think bama will take it but i want notre dame to win.
it all boils down to me being sick of the sec.
its gotten out of hand
i agree with much of the anti-nd stuff above but that's how bad it's gotten for me. i will root for nd before the sec.
Low mother fuckin pride
Fuck bama, fuck the sec. Shit is getting quite old. I'm sick of the sec. If nd wins they won repeat agian next season so I can handle it for the offseason. And I want to beat Sabah and all those blue choppers our way to prove they ain't shit.
#VTSTRENGHTOFSCHEDULE Go
#VTSTRENGHTOFSCHEDULE
Go Bama, so we can upset them in August. I never liked ND, and hate the deal they got with the ACC.

Bama, because most Notre Dame fans don't even know what state its in
Well lets be honest, most Bama fans wouldn't know that either if it weren't in their name.
Fair enough, btw is that Johnie Walker Blue in your pic? If so, consider me impressed.
Johnnie Walker Blue, Glenmorangie 18 yr ER, Larceny, Jefferson's Presidential Reserve 18 yo, Crown reserve in the decanter. I'm a whisk(e)y man. What can I say!
THEY AIN'T NEVAH BEEN TO DALLAS!
Gotta Root for the Golden Domers
I hate the SEC. They have had the best football conference in college footaball for at least the last five years. They have won the last 7 national titles and I hate that I have to turn the CBS and listen to two senile old farts jerk off to Nick Saban and Les Miles every time I want to watch a good football matchup.

Also from http://outkickthecoverage.com/all-that-and-a-bag-of-mail-sabans-retireme...
Seriously, how does someone let this happen?
...and let the Tramp Stamp jokes begin.
ROot for both to lose. hate ND, Kely is a douche
but I am tired of the SEC and ready for some new blood. Who do i think will win, I think it will be a tough 1st half, but Bama blows it open in the 2nd half. Bama has a tough D, same as ND, but Bama has a much better ground game and a good QB.
my heart says ND but my gut tells me for us to become god of college football we need to beat the back to back defending national title champ... very conflicting
Hate both so no real rooting interest. Guess I dislike Kelly more than Saban though.
wow watching this game is worse than a double pass when your down 31-17
This Game
is embarrassing if youre a ND fan. I really hope Bama shuts ND out, then we crush them in August.
BEAT BAMA!!!!!!!!!!
I DON'T KNOW HOW I DIDN'T THINK OF THIS VIDEO SOONER!
Alabama vs. Notre Dame:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nda_OSWeyn8
i have a friend whos a ND fan i cant imagine how he feels right now
Good thing Jack Tyler doesn't tackle like this:
Put Lou Holtz on suicide watch.
i feel bad for Dr. Lou
Mark May is gonna tear him a new one.
i really hope we show up more than nd cause bamas d looks great
I think Pep's asking price just went up!
We're going him !!
Bama's O-line
This has got to be the best game ever played by an offensive line in a national championship game.The holes for lacy and yeldon are huge, and McCarron's only been touched once. Thank god most of them (jones, warmack, fluker) will be long gone by August.
Be the team
Next years matchup has the makings for potentially one of our greatest games ever. Think about it: Bama will have little to no respect for us and they'll be higher than a hippie in Colorado.

Remind me again why Notre Dame is a great addition to the ACC? Why they don't have to be a full member?
