I am not allowed to pull for my team, that would be un-Hooplan of me.
17-13 LSU

It will have to be a higher score for them to beat us, i dont think their defense can hold us to 13 pts and Bama has only given up 17 or more to one team and LSU doesnt have the offense that A&M does. It will be a good game, but i think Bama wins(un-hooplan of me i know)
I actually agree.
I'm just waiting for Alabama to have one of those games where they come out flat, and it's just not their day. LSU is a perfect team for this to happen.
My 17-13 prediction is me talking out of my ass.
VT game was that all over the place.
This game scares me every year because records dont matter usually.
Wish I could watch it. Unfortunately the Irish are on at the same time.
So your point is no one has a title then at all, ever. because voted and awarded is all we got until a playoff comes around and then its subjective to a panel voting...oh no, no titles ever...............................
Playing in prime time definitely has its drawbacks, I like out 3:30 slot much better.
The only National Championship that matters to me is the next one. With that said we should claim even more titles, just to troll the OCD folks who are fixated on this topic.
Absolutely not. Has Bama deserved to be "voted" or "awarded" Championships in the past? Sure they have..and, most are well deserved. But, at least 5 IMO are not. How about the 04' season, if it was Bama that went undefeated instead of Auburn?...Bama would have been "voted" in to play in the Championship, and that is a fact of the beauty/popularity contest of college football.
Hell, look at the Ducks. They sure looked "pretty" with all those wardrobe changes every weekend...but, at the end of the day...they were still an ugly duckling, just glamoured to look like the best team in college football.
I'll have some shirts made!
I know where you can get some green shirts pretty cheap
So i guess Bama going undefeated in 1966 and not getting voted a title is a travesty then huh?
We cannot say for sure that Bama would have been voted to play in that 04 title game, only speculate that it might have happened, since it didnt happen.
Prior to 1936 the DeFacto National Champion was the Rose Bowl winner in most years. Bama did this three times prior to 1936, add in its 9 AP or wire service titles and you get 12. Most Bama fans i know claim 9 and they are as solid as any title ever given, awarded, or voted on. How it was done is based on the criteria of that time period and not subject to scrutiny years after the fact. It is what it is.
