![]() Last thing for the night, if Manti Teo doesn't win the heisman then that award is officially offensive players only. I honestly think they will give it to him and he is well deserving of it. He embodies what a college athlete should be on and off the field, class act.

![]() It's an offensive award, pretty damn stupid if you ask me. That zit faced kid didn't deserve it over manti, but he is a qb.

![]() Here's my take on the game.
Both teams have great defenses. Outside of the great defenses about everything else is horribly bad to lukewarm good. The excitement over this game is extremely premature because it looks to me like this game will ultimately come down to special teams and field goals. Going by that logic the advantage goes to Alabama. When you face a team that returns kickoff for an average of 2.4 yards about the only way you lose the game is through breakdowns on defense and turnovers. Pardon my French but Notre Dame's offense isn't even on the same planet compared to Georgia's and I fail to see how you can be so cocky. You fools actually believe you can throw the ball against Bama with the success Georgia had? You can delude yourselves into believing that will happen. Sure ND has an excellent run game but Bama's strength on defense is stopping the run. Georgia had a good run game too. Actually had 9 more rushing td's than Notre Dame. The fact of the matter is this is a very young Alabama team in a bad season of football. Both of these teams would have been non-BCS bowl bound in 09. But all that really matters is the championship. The only exciting thing to me is potential for a rematch next season when both teams are a little older and mature. |

![]() Anyone else PRAYING that ND gets the $hit kicked out of them? Back to the dark hole of irrelevance in which ND fans have been hanging in for the past 10 years +.

manziel has had a terrific season, but probably won't get some votes because he's a freshman (i think that is absurd, if he was the best player, why does it matter what year he's in?) so there has been and always will be people who won't for certain players for certain reasons. and one of those reason will always be position played. after all, linemen never get a nod. ray guy still isn't in the hall. plenty of examples of people who weren't considered the best player because of their position, or which side of the ball they play on. not saying it's right, it's just how it is.

![]() Manziel got arrested in July in an incident in which racial slurs were used by his buddy, doesn't seem like a guy heisman worthy.
