Alabama-spring-game
Stop the presses………UGA will win on Saturday. Every single talking head except for a few uniformed media fools are picking Alabama. It’s magic, it is Nick Saban the master of the big game. Coach Mark Richt matching wits against Saban could never happen, at least in the media’s eye. Little doubt the Master Saban will have such a game plan that the tolerable Mark Richt will have to bow down before allowing the Dawgs to compete with such a disciplined team. Stop the nonsense please. UGA has all the weapons that Alabama does not. We have the speed, the quarterback that does more than dump off to the backs. We have the motivation of nine guys coming back for just this moment. We have talked about it all year, No Regrets. This is a UGA team of Destiny. What about the offensive line?…..Alabama is so good and UGA has been inconsistent. Granted, true but the Alabama defensive line is not South Carolina’s, nor is it Florida’s. The Alabama offensive line had problems with Texas A&M....

Mark Richt vs. Nick Saban: The Difference In The SEC Title Game

Via Football Nation  |  November 28, 2012
When fans and the media look at the Alabama/Georgia game, they assume Notre Dame will be playing Alabama in the title game.  This assumption is correct and the head coaches are to blame.Mark Richt's laid back attitude leads to the Dawgs' choking in big games.  Richt needs to create some sort of sense of urgency when they play on the grand stage.  Here are some results...

Chris Black to play Saturday?

Via alabama.scout.com  |  November 28, 2012
At the beginning of the week, Alabama head coach Nick Saban said they'd "revisit" the decision to play Chris Black who had surgery on his shoulder in August and has just recently been medically cleared for contact. Black wants to play and his family supports the decision, so will we see him on the field in the Georgia Dome Saturday?

Alabama's offensive line holds key to SEC title

In the BCS Standings they are No.2 and No.3. But for most observers, this is the national championship game.

But unlike previous SEC Championships, the Bulldogs and Crimson Tide are more than...

Tide Offensive Line Subdues 'Dawgs

Via alabama.scout.com  |  December 02, 2012
Nick Saban loves to equate a boxing match between two adept punchers as the scenario his team must endure for the inevitable test. Toughness, mental and physical, counts in the athletic arena. Alabama tasted the canvas many times falling behind a relentless Georgia team three times before the final bell concluded the gridiron slugfest.
