How badly does the SEC beat up on Dame?

[SBAMACANE]

ND is very much similar to the Bucknuts of 02. ND is gonna hear $EC $EC $EC $EC $EC for 5 weeks and how they don't have a chance!! I say ND will get their chance and capitalize. For the record can't stand either one of them. Cane fan living in South Alabama is tough. The Red in this state is quite bad.

defense wins titlkes especially the front 7. Dame has a good one dont sleep on em they have a chance. Bama will win if they ride the Amari Cooper train IMO.

this also reminds me of 02.

you guys are fooling yourself if you think ND is going to lay down. They can stop Bama's offense - no doubt. And, I'm sure they can run at bama.

I think Bama is going to stomp the **** out of ND. ND hasn't seen a defense even close to Bama's all season long. People claim ND has been great at stopping the run but they haven't tried stopping rushing attack like this. Bama just rushed for 300+ yards on Georgia. Give Saban 5 or 6 weeks to game plan and he's going to have that defense ready to tear ND apart.

Stanford would like a word with you

stanford went into overtime AT notre lame and WITH A BENCHED QUARTERBACK. Bama has played the best teams in the country the last four years and nearly always found a way to win

does anyone remember the Irish AT HOME trailing a five loss Pitt team and needing OT to win?

I think Notre Dame has a chance to win that game. You can guarantee that Kelly will have his team prepared and ready to play.

I hate Bama and ND equally so it's a no win for me. Having said that, ND wins this year and hopefully the SEC starts to reel...I hate the fuggin SEC unless we were in it.

I hate them both, too. I wasn't sure who I wanted to win this game until I got to work yesterday. Now, it's clear as crystal. I hope Notre Dame pounds Alabama. These people(Alabama fans) are out of control. Listening to them try to justify why the hit on McCarron(by Ogletree) was a penalty and the hit by Dial on Murray wasn't, was just mind numbing.

ND has an SEC defense. Problem is, their offense is not up to Georgia's standard.

Bama 21 ND 10

nd's back 7 is not sec like...in fact their terrible....

Problem is ...Bama's o likely wont air it out much......But when they do...Amari Cooper will routinely get buy those guys.....

ND in the front 7 will give Bama problems...

Golic's kid is a bum...and Nd will have Nix and other beast inside ready to eat up the interior...in fact Barret Jone or whoever the center is also is not that strong at the point of attack....

The problem i see ...is i dont think ND's qb is good whatsoever...add to it..he's young..an about to see a whole bunch of blitzes and guys that will knock his head off.....i see dude "****tin the bed" and leadin to Bama running away with this thing....[

Having watched almost every bama game for years - my dad went to bama so i watch bama games with him and he watches canes with me

this bama team is nothing like last years team - complete rebuild on D - lots of new starters and no great speed pass rusher - despite that have played well on D except when put on the field too much

against LSU and A&M bama did not commit to the run and AJ McCarron is not a good/great QB - he is a good game manager and can still make big plays or lead a game winning drive

- however - UGA front 7 is as good as anyone in college and actually better than BAMA - just BAMA has better RBs and better overall run blocking OL - could not handle UGAs pass rush plus UGA has 4 SRs in secondary

I think this game will go the way of the BAMA vs LSU or UGA or A&M - close game til the end and whoever makes less mistakes or QB makes a big play will win - the one factor that is difficult to determine is ---> does ND have the speed to really press BAMA ie like UGA or Johnny football at A&M - just a simple view IMHO

 

[TexasCane90]

Would really like for neither team to be able to win the ship... but seeing as that aint gonna happen..

as good as ESPN is riding Alabama and the SEC's nuts again till the title game i think (unfortunately) ND had what it takes to do what the aggies did in their house of stopping that run and making bama's QB win the game

17 pts likely wins this game.
