SEC Title down, National Championship to go
AL.com ^ | 12/3/2016 | AL.com

Defense and special teams set the tone; Alabama set the table for a two-game playoff run after a 54-16 SEC Championship Game win over Florida, as the Tide makes a bid for a 17th national title.

I have heard that McE is just a front man, that Spurrier is working behind the scenes as the real head coach. Probably just a rumor, but Gator fans would know.

We didn’t bother watching the game today, I seriously get bored watching Bama. How do people get excited about a team that just rolls and rolls? No games are even close.

That must be why Spurrier was in T-town this week.

That would be interesting if the Gators had been in T-town and not Atlanta.

Still an interesting place for him to be.

Believe me, if Spurrier was the real head coach, we wouldn’t suck so bad.

I made that up. I misheard something on the radio the other day. Hah. But Spurrier does like to visit Tuscaloosa according to rumors I’ve heard in the past. Maybe to play golf. I don’t know.

Not your imagination at all. If I could move to the Southeast right now I would, and not just for the women.

At least you got the job done against UGA, which is more than Auburn did.

And at least UF and Auburn BOTH sent Muschamp packing, which was the entire reason our defense improved this year. Now to work on the offense. Ugh.

Of the golfers I know here in Bham, none seems to be drawn to T-Town for golf. Not a whole lot of reason to go there other for Bama events.

I don’t know why anyone would go there for golf unless it were for the company while playing.

Watching the Penn State/Wisconsin game. A minute left with Penn up by 7 and Wisconsin threatening around Penn’s 30 yard line. 4th down, 1 yard to go and Penn held them.

The Wisconsin fans look like hillary supporters on election night.

Is there a Trent Jones course in T-town? I lived in Bama for over two decades and played a lot of Golf. Goose Pond was one of my favorites, BTW.

I played at Goose Pond many ties when I lived in north Alabama. Great course. Learned to carry a scraper to get the goose crap out of my putting line when needed.

Ohio State could play the University of Slippery Rock 10 times during the year and the committee would still include them in the playoffs. Michigan got screwed, they’re better than Ohio State and Penn State won the Big 10, so dammit that means they’re the best team in the Big Ten, but no way they make the cut. Unless Alabama all the sudden forgets how to play football they’ll win another title. The defense is the best in the country and defense usually wins titles. Today Florida gained ZERO net yards rushing. That’s right, 0 yards.

May very well happen. Penn State did beat them, and won the BigTen Championship last night. Strength of Schedule for Bucks may work in their favor. We will know soon enough!
Go Bucks.
