National Title

Alright, First and Foremost I would like to say that Alabama won the National Championship fair and square. They won it straight up and when you knock a player out on the other team on a clean hit – that’s part of the game. Last night during the game Pulley said that he was sure that I would feel that this Title would be tainted due to McCoy. I was insulted. No, this title is not tainted due to McCoy. Actually I think when you knock players out on the other team that shows just how much more physical you are than them.

That said… If McCoy plays in that ball game Texas wins by double digits. With 3 minutes to go in the game down by 3… there is no way that game should have been that close. And that is even after the ridiculous shuttle pass call from Mac Brown then Texas goes in to halftime down 17-6 with life. Especially when Gilbert Grape started coming in to his own and starts completing passes. If they were not trying to dig out of such deep hole I really think that Texas has legitimate chance to win that game. Hell, they had a legitimate chance with a 24-6 hole.

Mack Brown out coached Nick Saban. That’s right. And if any of you Alabama fans don’t admit that then you are wearing Saban colored glasses. I’m not saying Brown is a better coach, I’m saying that Brown was with in 3 points with a freshman QB on a team that is built around the QB on the bench - with 3 minutes to go - with the ball. You cant draw an analogy on the bama side. Bama is a more balanced team and you can basically plug people in (ie Richardson for Ingram). I understand that is due to coaching that is why I just said that I don’t believe that Brown is a BETTER coach than Saban but he did out coach him in that game.

Overall, the SEC just won its 4th straight Title. No other conference has ever won 4 straight titles and this helps all of us SEC teams out. It basically secures us in the Title game in any “controversial” year. If the 04 season is played next year then Auburn plays for the National title and for that every SEC school needs to thank Alabama, Florida, and LSU. Thank you, hopefully one of us can keep the streak going next year.
