I’m talking more about the lesser bowl games.

I like Clemson but I would rather see an Alabama/Ohio State match up for the national title.

Beat the spread too

Alabama takes on Washington in a College Football Playoff semifinal matchup. According to OddsShark, Alabama enters the Peach Bowl as a 13.5 point favorite. The line moved slightly towards Washington in the 24 hours leading up to the game.

The over-under is set at 54 points. Alabama has been great not just on the football field but in Vegas. The Crimson Tide went 9-4 against the spread this season while Washington was 7-6.

I hear ya. Still early. However the OSU Offensive side of the ball is givin me Nightmare memories or the 2007 OSU v Florida Championship Game.
Defense in the backfield before the Damn ball is even hiked!!

No nightmares for me.

I’m neutral. Gotta recover from today’s game. I don’t like it when refs don’t make calls. It leads to more blatant fouls which are still not called.

Are you talking about the uncalled holds and the uncalled clap that Bama got away with? Atlanta is almost a home game for Bama, so.... Not saying it would have changed the outcome, but I did notice it.

Roll Tide!

A good win by fake college students over students who - under Peterson - are mostly legitimate college students.

The uncalled holds were pretty even. The clap was a bad missed call. I’m talking about cheap shots. But I have to say that Bama needs to work on maintaining their cool even when someone tries to take out the knees of a first round draft prospect.

[petitfour]

Fake college students?

[Alas Babylon!]

That’s really a bitter loser thing to say.

Did you vote for Hillary?

[suthener]

With Alabama I frequently get an ulcer for 3 hours but then wonder why I did when I look at the final score.

[Steve_Seattle]

Like many games, this came down to two or three big plays: the pick six (which drained the air out of the bar where I was), the Alabama conversion on the third-and-nine from the three yard line, and the subsequent 65-yard Alabama TD on the play with a couple of broken tackles.

I figured Washington could only win if Browning had an error-free game, and he didn't. Alabama had - by far - the best defense the UW has seen this year.

[Loud Mime]

Washington should not have been in the 4 after what USC did to them.

[MotorCityBuck]

BooYaa!!

[Steve_Seattle]

"Fake college students."

Yep. I'd bet that Alabama had way more sketchy students than the UW. Under Peterson, academics are emphasized, and the UW had about a dozen players on the first and second team Pac-12 academic teams.

[aomagrat]

Clempson Clempson Rah Rah Rah!
Down the toilet Ha Ha Ha!

[Himyar]

That commercial is pretty close to reality here in Alabama.

[blam]

"Alabama had - by far - the best defense the UW has seen this year. "

Alabama's defense scored as many points as did Washington's whole team.
Think about that.
