1. I am a hawkeye fan   2 . ND barely beat MSU   3. Iowa beat MSU in East Lsnsing and Iowa is god awful   4. Bama is going to kill ND 

5. Its your money AND not my job to keep you from losing yours.

Good read Jimmy  

Both these teams will try to impose their will in establishing the running game... The difference in my opinion is that Bama will be able to make a few big plays, which will be beneficiial in the field posistion battle and possibly hit a few for scores with the play action pass... This definitely favors Bama... McCarron has 11 touchdowns this season off of the play action pass.... Golsen has zero....

Jimmy,

Great write up.

I took ND +10 for 2 units. The *ONLY* reason I did is to try to middle my preseason Alabama +500 we talked about. I do not think that ND hangs, but if they do, I have my ass covered. Ha!

My future bet on Alabama is only +350.  There's not really enough money on the line to make hedging worthwhile.

Good to hear from you TM.



I think the difference is that Alabama's offense can threaten any part of the field at anytime, and that is something that Notre Dame has not faced all season.

Coukd not disagree enough with u! When I was a michigan homer early on that was my heart talking until i finally admitted bama was alot better! That is not the case here nd is good and so is that defense! They held michigan to less points than did your bama! Another note bama defense aint all that! Max bet is a stretch but good luck as i have no dog in the fight!

Nd +10


So good to see you mtp!!!  We started the season disagreeing, and we get to end the season disagreeing.  I won't have it any other way!!!

No.  I think the line will continue to hover around 9.5 - 10 until kickoff.

Jimmy,
At least i finally woke up and agrred with you the first time! By the way the above poster that said nd barely beat msu is an idiot! Msu never crossed the 50 yard line against nd! Dumb dumb dumb! Back to us jimmy i like your thoughts i just cant fathom bama dominating nd in the trenches to a tune of 34-6! Nd o line and d line are both abive average! Gholston seems to be the typical if we plays good we win pick! I disagree ans will say nd back four are they key to nd sucess just like bama sucess! Both squads are capable of getting beat deep! I just like the playmaking ability of nd defense better! I love teo and he isthe only reason a die hard michigan fan is hoping for an outright win! I have so much respect for this kid!

I know that doesnt win me money! Kelly has proven to be a very good coach that can prepare for big games! Saban has many more yes yesyes! Why not nd why not tonight why not touchdown jesus!

I say why not guys!

Bama bama bama you thinj yu got it figured out until something crazy. Happens!

Last year the title game spread moved in favor of bama for a reason! Bama was better way better than lsu in all areas of the game! Nd has one this in common with lsu and thats defense other than that lsu is horrible on offense! Nd is not horrible on offense nd is much better coached on offense than lsu and nd has better talent than lsu! Nd matches up favorably toniht!

Thank for the write up. 

I'm hoping for a good game but I think Bama smashed Notre Dame.

I have a big 10 point teaser open with just bama m/l, 20 units

but I am getting even more greedy 

10 units -9.5.....

also just for fun

MARGIN OF VICTORY (ALL BETS ACTION)
[80117] ALABAMA WINS BY 22 OR MORE +600

MARGIN OF VICTORY (ALL BETS ACTION)
[80116] ALABAMA WINS BY 18-21 PTS +900

NOTRE DAME - TOTAL POINTS SCORED
08-14 POINTS +300

 LY's LSU team was so much better than this ND team.  LSU's had a front 7 *better* than ND and a phenomenal secondary.

Jimmy any action on margin of victory?  I'm thinking of putting 3 bets down for equal amount to cover the margin from 10+ - 22+

Thoughts?

Nd recruiting class competes with both lsu and bama u just dont know that because of the kool aide u drink!

mtp104-

You really are clueless aren't you-If you think this years ND team is better than LSU last year than you are very mistaken! Alabama had one of the best defenses ever last year. You statements are beyond ridiculous. You laugh at an Ole Miss team that b i t c h slapped Pitt. Did you watch the Pitt/ND game? Pitt dominated that game and somehow gave it away. I'm not drinking any Kool Aid. You tell me how Notre Dame moves the ball and scores- please tell me?

You went back and watched every game for both teams this season, and this is what you came up with? You go from questioning whether or not Alabama will convert their drives into TDs to predicting them to score between 27-34? 

Could've saved some key strokes and just typed your prediction. Your analysis doesn't offer any more than 3 minutes of college game day.  

Good luck with your play. Shocked to see you on Bama.
