Oregon lost Patterson (FS) Marioto and Barner tonight

also: almost got in a fight busting a “sandusky” call on a pedophile(PSU) fan…my bad

My dad did not grow up Catholic but hung out with a lot of Catholic guys – in Wash DC. He became a ND fan b/c of his buddies. Eventually became Catholic too.

Big ND following in the DC area – “subway alums”.

NY, DC, Chicago, Boston, even Philly despite a sizable PSU presence. Tonight’s game was the only sellout BC had all year.

When I watch oregon, they make the field look sooo wide. I haven’t seen a team that can marrow it. Squawk

Respectfully disagree. I think we’ll know the answer in …. two fucking months? Arrghh.

Not sure I can go with this. KSU’s D looks good, but …

I’d love to see KSU/Alabama. Just for the fucking hitting. I’d also love to KSU/Oregon just because KSU’s defense would stay in position and not fall for Oregon’s speed.

Also i have to admit i thought Manziel was more hype than substance coming in, considering how he struggled against Florida and LSU (at home no less). He was incredible. He earned the Johnny Football moniker today.

I know that. I just wonder why people became fans of ND if they had no connection to the school. Must be the same deal with the yankees and cowboys having national fanbases

Look up “Knute Rockne” and “barnstorming tours.” Back in Knute’s day Notre Dame played top teams all over the country, building a fanbase amongst Catholics nationwide (esp. Irish Catholics). A lot of them were lower-middle class blue-collar types who did not attend college and lived in larger cities.

Plus when you think about it’s hard for a state school to become a national brand, it’s given Notre Dame football, and later Duke basketball an advantage in that regard.

I’ve always thought the bama front 7 on defense made up for weakness in the secondary. They have’t had to play many good qbs in the last 3-4 years for it to be a real concern.

Remember … Colt McCoy got knocked out early in the 09 NC.

If aTm does this, Oregon would scores 60 vs this bama defense. Well – pretty much any defense they score 50+. Been saying that for weeks.

You’re prob right. the Bama DEF was exposed by an average LSU OFF last week. They made some adjustment for Johnny Football in the 2nd half, but it was too late then.

No stunner with me.

Just a stunner for a first year coach is what some folks are thinking.

Saban – the no huddle is unfair, but uses it.
AJ McScreenpass – terribly over-rated.
I’m an SEC guy, but I’ve been sayin – the SEC defenses are propped up by bad QBs. Johnny is the exception and here’s what you get.

he’s be seen in Athens making out with other dudes.

Bama was flat from that game last week and TXAM knocked their dicks in the dirt for the 1st Qtr and that did them in. They adjusted in the 2nd half, but their OFF couldnt deliver when they needed to.

Hats off to TXAM, well deserved win. As for Bama, I will be more disappointed if they shit the bed vs. Barner or maybe UGA for the SEC championship. They have a lot to play for, an SEC title, a major bowl bid, etc. If they look like crap the rest of the season, that will really be disappointing, not the outcome of tonite’s game.

BTW, Bama fans should be really happy how far they’ve come this considering that this team lost 9 DEF starters from last year’s team (5 players in the top 34 2012 NFL draft). OFF was gonna be good this year, but just came up short today.

Alot of good things to come to Bama if they stay focused.

Roll Damn Tide

Awkward congratulatory ass smacks after touchdowns I bet that would create. Coach gives you a smack, he gives you a grab.
