Hoss you say we like to play the underdog roll and its silly, but from the way people are already talking and crowning Bama it seems fair. I don't mind, this team was 13 point dogs going into Norman and we know how that turned out.

Yes, I'm an SEC zealot being that I was born in Oxford, Mississippi, graduated from LSU system twice, and live/work in Louisiana. I have paid little attention to Notre Dame historically. Did see them lose in very frigid Independence Bowl years ago.

I believe that Alabama is overall bettervteam and will prevail in January for two reasons. First, Nick Saban has more than one month to prepare his game plan and very talented team. Second, my personal theory is that this team, just as last year's team, contains players, coaches, and staff that bonded while working together in aftermath of Tuscaloosa tornado tragedy. This event created an intangible positive effect that carries over to the football field. Since April 27, 2011, they've only lost twice.

As SEC fan, every year I support and cheer each SEC team in its respective bowl game. Curious question, why have Irish never been mentioned as potential SEC member?
