Alabama or Ohio State? (Page 4/4)

OK, it wasn't even close. But, I can still say, I told you so.

I've determined that I didn't under estimate Bama, I over estimated Ohio State.

I'm not knocking them, they have some very good players but, they don't have the depth of talent and need a better defensive line to compete with a team like Bama.

For someone with no 'dog in the fight' you sure seem to have some sort of focused interest in wherever Al goes.
IMO, the least deplorable of the 2 teams won.
(Obviously, I'm not a Saban worshipper)

It would be weird if ND or Big 10 teams win in the biggest games. They almost never do. Speed, talent, depth and coaching.

I believe I clearly stated that I was an SEC fan.

Never said I was a Saban fan but with 6 National Championships it’s hard to dis- credit him, his record or, his teams.

Think it's 7 titles. One with LSU.

Edited so as not to add post count.

A reporter for USA Today printed how he wants to take player's ability to choose where they go to college away from them by instituting pro player style drafts where (mostly) State institutions determine where they play.
That's pretty clearly whining.

Parity is always a big issue but usually only AFTER the end of college season.

Unless NCAA etc says the universities have to pay the players similar to how NFL does, then imo, the choice should always be left up to the player/student. Might be some room for which areas (across conference lines? ) different programs can recriuit from, but other than that, I don't see where forcing a student to attend school in any specific area, conference or school is ever going to fly.
Big12 (or however few they have now) ..you gonna make a Methodist kid go to Baylor or a Baptist to SMU?
not likely.
