And what nice Notre Dame posters? Irish hasn't been around for over a year.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:02 PM ^
When you're a mod, you tend to miss all of the names, except for the worst of the worst, either way, the basic premise still holds. Be nice to everyone on the open thread.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:17 PM ^
Watch for the Notre Dame trolls.
January 7th, 2013 at 9:22 PM ^
Bama dong the job for you.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:00 PM ^
I'm sick of National Championships were my rooting options are either a turd sandwich or a giant douche...
January 7th, 2013 at 8:04 PM ^
Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:00 PM ^
Desmond wearing by purple clothing, why do these guys let other people dress them.
Also, apparently this is the taxslayer.com pre game show. Awesome.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:02 PM ^
Look at the bright side. What if OSU was sanction-less and it was ND vs. OSU for the title right now?
Cue Sideshow Bob clip of him stepping on a bunch of rakes...
January 7th, 2013 at 8:21 PM ^
Very true, it could be worse. Thank goodness they decided to play in their crappy bowl game last year and not this year!
January 7th, 2013 at 8:06 PM ^
I agree there has been horrible choices of teams to root for in the last several NC games. However, I had a GREAT time in this years NC game. Let me explain.
I bought a bunch of beer for the K State vs. Oregon game. I literally hyped myself up and convinced myself it was this years NC game. Every first down, turnover, score, and great play that happened I would scream NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP YEA!!! like a complete idiot.
It was the most fun I had watching a NC game in years. I will keep up this tradition until Michigan gets into the NC game.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:10 PM ^
That game sucked.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:06 PM ^
FUCK THE IRISH.
THEY'RE TRYING TO TAKE OUR SPACE.
THAT'S OUR SPACE. OURS.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:07 PM ^
Anything and I mean anything is better than the SEC slurpfest from last year.
That said I am part of the anti ND crowd mainly because of their craven move to get us off the schedule.
Think Bama wins by a comfortable amount but never underestimate the team that has been shay on in the month and a half leading up to the moment.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:07 PM ^
honey badger don't care
January 7th, 2013 at 8:08 PM ^
If you think once about rooting for ND, reconsider and think about damefan and how bad he'd be if they win. Do you really want society to go through that?
January 7th, 2013 at 8:41 PM ^
everyone (esp on mgoblog) will be running around going "We didnt listen!....We didnt listen!" as it will then become impossible to watch any sports programming for the next 5 years
January 7th, 2013 at 8:09 PM ^
I'm going to go out on a limb and say God doesn't care who wins this game.
Now the "other" guy might...
January 7th, 2013 at 8:09 PM ^
Did Urban just say, "Alabummer?" I think he just did.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:09 PM ^
Why is Urban still on the pregame show?
January 7th, 2013 at 8:10 PM ^
Someone have that sweet pic of BK modeling the cowboy boots?
January 7th, 2013 at 8:13 PM ^
Lee Corso's pregame cameo was a rather awkward moment. Indeed, he does choose Notre Dame because orange water given bucket of plaster, I would think.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:16 PM ^
Who's willing to bet Urban avoided I-75 past Gainesville enroute to Miami? The memories would just be too stressful on him.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:16 PM ^
Dude definitely took the 301 to Aligator alley.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:16 PM ^
If ND loses I can't wait to see what Mike Golic says...
January 7th, 2013 at 8:17 PM ^
So it's not just a bad dream, then. In my ND vs SEC National Championship nightmares Nikki Minaj, Katy Perry, and Lady Gaga perform the National Anthem backed up by Nickleback...
January 7th, 2013 at 8:18 PM ^
Well I have my turkey baster on hand for Lou Holtz if ND wins.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:19 PM ^
Roll Damn Tide is somewhere on this board right now. And he is smiling down on all of us
January 7th, 2013 at 8:20 PM ^
Anyone have luck finding a live stream? The ESPN is blacked out in my area.
Bama with a workman like 24-10 win.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:21 PM ^
Man I can't wait till we get to a championship game!
January 7th, 2013 at 8:26 PM ^
Soon my friend...soon.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:23 PM ^
Roll tide I guess :/
January 7th, 2013 at 8:24 PM ^
I have a feeling this is going to go horribly, horribly wrong for ND, and right from the get go.
I'm talking Florida - OSU 2006 bad (minus the opening kick return for TD).
January 7th, 2013 at 8:24 PM ^
Saban looking disconcerted, drink.
http://kegsneggsblog.com/2013/01/06/the-2013-bcs-national-championship-…
January 7th, 2013 at 8:27 PM ^
I like the creases in Saban's khakis.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:28 PM ^
I would argue against tucking your shirt under your shoulder pads if you're over 300 pounds.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:29 PM ^
It's a pre-game speech, not a proposal.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:31 PM ^
Over/ under on the Kelly Purple clock? 2:15 left 1st qtr?
January 7th, 2013 at 8:33 PM ^
Under. 2:15 gone is more likely.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:33 PM ^
Something tells me McCarron is going to burn that ND secondary all night.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:33 PM ^
LOLz, domers fucking up already
January 7th, 2013 at 8:33 PM ^
Arm tackles against Lacy lolol not going to work
January 7th, 2013 at 8:34 PM ^
45+ yards, and that's after stuffing the first one. I hope ND keeps taking penalties like this all night.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:34 PM ^
More penalties please!
January 7th, 2013 at 8:34 PM ^
Notre Dame better calm down or this one will be over in 10 minutes
January 7th, 2013 at 8:35 PM ^
Lacy is a beast. Gonna give ND a loooong day
January 7th, 2013 at 8:35 PM ^
Golly. I really hope Alabama wins by 57.
January 7th, 2013 at 8:38 PM ^
Why only 57? Why not 100?
When beating Notre Dame, there is no such thing as scoring too much.
