Alabama vs Georgia: Who Ya Got?

  • Yes, our beloved Huskers are playing on Saturday in the biggest game we have seen all season. A Big 10 Championship and Rose Bowl berth are huge.

    There is also an even bigger game (nationally) that will decide the 2nd entrant to this years BCS National Championship game.

    Alabama is a solid 7 1/2 point favorite in this contest in Georgia's backyard of the dome in Atlanta. (Georgia obviously won't own any home field advantage other than their short hour or so ride into the 'Dirty South'.)

    I'm going with Georgia straight up getting the 7 1/2 with Murray poised to play the game of his career and the Dawgs front 7 up to the task of slowing down Lacy and Yeldon.

    Since the LSU and Texas A&M contests, I haven't been all that enamored with Alabama as I was earlier in the season. They are more vunerable in this game than many think IMO.

    What say you?

  • Alabama, because karma is broken in college football. Here are 5 quick reasons.

    1) Auburn winning after the $Cam
    2) :01
    3) Brian Kelly having any amount of success after in no uncertain terms being responsible for the death of a student
    4) Penn State not getting the death penalty
    5) Bobby Petrino

    This is a pretty fair assessment.

  • Roll Tide. UGA has played and easier schedule than Bama. Plus this place is gonna go bonkers if Georgia wins and I'll have to hear it.

  • I'll be rooting for Georgia... but I think Bama pounds them. I hope I'm wrong, I have relatives that are Bama fans and I would love for them to be relegated to the Cap 1 bowl.

    Has Georgia actually played an easier scheudule than Alabama?

    Alabama has played the following:

    @ Arkansas (looked like a big game, but Arkansas got undressed early)
    Ole MIss (Texas beat them unmercifully in their own house)
    @ Missouri (It is Missouri for craps sake)
    @ Tennessee (They just fired their coach)
    Miss State (They just got beat by Ole Miss by 17 points)
    @ LSU (solid game, outyarded, outplayed, shouldn't have won)
    Texas A&M: Lost
    Auburn: Awful football team with a lame duck coach

    Now for Georgia and their perceived 'weak' schedule:

    @ Missouri
    Vanderbilt (they are bowling this year)
    Tennessee
    @ South Carolina (got spanked)
    @ Kentucky (really bad football team)
    Florida (neutral site game, and this team beat LSU)
    Ole Miss
    @ Auburn

    So who had the tougher schedule? Everybody wants to laugh at Georgia's schedule, but Bama's schedule is equally questionable if not moreso than Georgia.

    I really think it will be closer than many think, maybe even a Georgia upset.

    neither schedule is amazingly difficult... actually Texas A&M's schedule is more difficult than either of theirs. Looking at it, it really looks like a push. Georgia might actually have a tougher schedule because of South Carolina. Good info Skerz.

    Maybe.

    Be very careful if wagering on Alabama to cover the 7 1/2 points. Hell, be careful on wagering them to win.

    'Am all about upsets; so whoever wins just knock off ND! Best chance for that to happen is Alabama digs in Georgia's " ding ding" and put a whooping onthe "Dawgs"!

    Alabama 20 Georgia 10.

  • If georgia puts pressure on the quarterback early i think there will be a lot of butthurt bammers bitching on sunday morning.
