    Game Thread 2015 Sugar Bowl: (1) Alabama vs. (4) Ohio State, Jan 1st @ 8:30p ET, ESPN (civilized thread)

    Agree. That is not a good comparison. Auburn might be the best comparison although I don't think you have a duo of wideouts quite like they do.

    Game Thread 2015 Sugar Bowl: (1) Alabama vs. (4) Ohio State, Jan 1st @ 8:30p ET, ESPN (civilized thread)

    An opposing team's success or failure on running the football really depends on which lineman we have in the game at the time. A run dominant team usually faces our " space eaters" and has little success running between the tackles but has moderate success outside. Pass happy teams, like Texas...

    LOL no. The 2012 team won most of it's games by wide margins. This team has had more nail biters. Mostly due to our own doing. I believe we are -1 on the year in turnover margin. We've had to overcome those.Overcoming your own mistakes that could get you beat takes faith from your teammates and...

    I think the winning team will score 21 points in the fourth quarter. Either blowing it open or mounting a ferocious comeback.

    I'd agree. This team, however, is more battle tested and resilient than that team.

    2015 Sugar Bowl Less Civilized Thread (Arguments/Shenanigans)

    Ok. I recall a couple of years ago Norte Dame fans saying there was no way anybody could drive 80 yards down the field on their defense. Yet it happened three times. I know you guys are much better than they were but I'd caution you saying anything can or cannot, with 100% certainty, happen when...

    Crumble? Really? If there ever was a chance for us to crumble it would've been right after Sims threw his third pick versus Auburn and they went up by two scores halfway through the third quarter. Instead, we score five touchdowns on five straight possessions.

    Not at all. This year's defense is probably Saban's shakiest defense. I was trying to differentiate our defense and Wisky's.

    That was not an attempt to troll. Let me explain. Jones had one week to prepare for Wisky. Emotion was on the side of the Buckeyes with the death of a teammate thing. Urban, I would think, simplified the gameplan. It carried him. In other words, Jones did not know what he did not know. Now, he...

    I agree. I watched the PAC12 championship and it just looked like two high school teams playing. It was awful.

    I disagree. I think it will either won or lost on what is in between C Jones' ears. Or maybe what is or isn't in his pants. (Skid marks).

    I don't recall very many play action boots that ended with a high rate of success. If OSU plays a lot of man to man, you will get beat by three touchdowns. Nobody gets off the line better than Cooper and nobody runs crisper routes than Cooper.

    Blake throws much better in the pocket. It's ugly when he tries to throw on the run. He is also pretty deadly with the slants.

    Never understood the attempt belittle us with the term Gump. Dude was successful at whatever he did.

    Probably the same as it feels to get beat by VA Tech. Although it may sting less to lose to a team that is playing in a New Year's Day bowl game. Glass house dude!

    Well maybe I should retract my comparison. Ole Miss probably does fit better.
