Everybody knows what they will be watching on TV tonight. Notre Dame and Alabama will go at it for the BCS National Championship. Notre Dame is 12-0 and is ranked #1 in the country. Although ND's #1 ranking, Bama still is the 9.5 point favorite. Alabama is looking to become the 1st team in history to repeat as National Champions. The last team to try was the 2005 USC team. The Crimson Tide have won two out of the last three National Championships. A win tonight would definitely put Saban in the group of the best college coaches ever. This would be his 4th National Championship, and his 3rd at Alabama. They have to get by Notre Dame's tough defense, though. The Irish's defense has been very good all year, lead by Heisman finalist Manti Te'o. The tough matchup for ND is Amari Cooper going up against ND's secondary. I really am looking forward to seeing the Tide's Offensive Line going up against the Irish's front seven. I think that this game will come down to turnovers. Alabama is one of the best teams in the country on capitalizing off turnovers. If they can force the young Freshman Everett Golson into making bad decisions and turning the ball over, Alabama will win this game. I really don't know how exciting this game will really be, but I have been wrong before. I will be tweeting like crazy tonight, so make sure you start following me on Twitter @MM8sports.
My Pick:
Alabama 33 Notre Dame 17
I think Bama will cover the spread and win handily. It has been a great year for ND and Brian Kelly, but tonight is Bama's night. I am not an Alabama fan, but Roll Tide!
