Washington had a total of 194 yards of total offense.

Going back to 1926, Washington (still) has never beat Alabama.

I know it’s strange, but I’m a Tennessee fan that roots for Alabama when they aren’t playing the Vols...

Could it be a rematch of last year’s championship?

Was it just me, or did you also see a pathetic pass offense? Defense on both sides seemed good. But, passing accuracy by Washington was rather sad.

I didn’t really relax until maybe 3 minutes left.

I had a strong feeling that Washington would win. Maybe just fear.

Roll Tide, Roll!

Yea, Alabama! Drown ‘em Tide!
Every ‘Bama man’s behind you;
Hit your stride!
Go teach the Bulldogs to behave,
Send the Yellow Jackets to a watery grave!
And if a man starts to weaken,
That’s a shame!
For ‘Bama’s pluck and grit
Have writ her name in crimson flame!
Fight on, fight on, fight on, men!
Remember the Rose Bowl we’ll win then!
Go, roll to victory,
Hit your stride,
You’re Dixie’s football pride, Crimson Tide!

As with most things, more is not better.

There used to be about 5 major bowls at the end of the season. A couple of years ago, I counted 50. 50 bowls! Half of them play teams that are in the 6-6 win-lose range. Why would a team that only won half of its games be ‘honored’ with a bowl appearance?

Alabama welcomes the Washington Huskies to SEC West-style football. Enjoy your visit, Huskies.

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.

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

Washington jumped out to an early 7-0 lead in the first quarter but then the Crimson Tide, led by young quarterback Jalen Hurts, 18, came roaring back and controlled the rest of the game.

...

Well, they were led by their defense and running game, but that’s a minor technicality.

No New Year’s bowls today cause it’s Sunday.

Bama and Clemson in the title game.
