National Championship Game Open Thread
Well, it'll probably be a short thread, since everyone has already said they're not watching tonight. But for those that are, it's the end of college football on the field for awhile. Gameday on. Pregame in about half an hour. It'll keep us busy till the Two and a Half Men Open thread starts later tonight.

Our guys were more excited about winning the Sugar Bowl than these guys are about winning the NC... I hate the SEC. Denard just better work on getting that ball out fast.
January 9th, 2012 at 11:46 PM ^
In this game if he doesn't.
January 9th, 2012 at 11:41 PM ^

That's awesome
January 9th, 2012 at 11:44 PM ^
this game seems different. this game doesn't feel like a true champion has been crowned. it feels like an sec champ has been crowned. this game is bogus. i understand alabama is good, very very good. but they didn't win the conference let along thier own division or even verse this team they just played, earlier this season. wtf has happened to college football. this is bogus.

January 9th, 2012 at 11:50 PM ^
your right, can't hate the teams at all, they played thier games and yes your are right, both teams did play a great game. im just mad at how this game even was able to become about i suppose, i think its bullsh*t at best.
January 9th, 2012 at 11:58 PM ^
Alabama is getting right now...
<br>
<br>...oh, wait.
January 9th, 2012 at 11:43 PM ^
Wow sometimes the questions posed in these interviews are so irrelevant and stupid. Seriously what would Sabans dead dad think of him winning the 3 rd NC????
January 9th, 2012 at 11:45 PM ^
LOL Saban looked pissed when he was holding up the trophy. What's that guy's deal, is he seriously a robot?
I imagine the interview going something like:
"Coach, you've just reached the pinnacle of your profession. How do you feel?"
"Pissed off."

Kicker got robbed
January 9th, 2012 at 11:43 PM ^
How is the kicker not the Offensive MVP? He put up almost all of their points in both games against LSU
January 9th, 2012 at 11:45 PM ^
The kicker was robbed, the kicker was robbed.
January 9th, 2012 at 11:45 PM ^
LET GO!
January 9th, 2012 at 11:47 PM ^
Ok off to the two and a half men open thread
January 9th, 2012 at 11:48 PM ^
That was even more soul-numbingly boring than I'd been promised, since it wasn't even close. I've never seen a more gutless performance from a QB than what Jordan 'Keep My Jersey Clean on the Option' Jefferson put out there. He must be one of the least likeable football players I've seen in a while - makes the Peyton Manning whiny face look like the Mona Lisa. And really - this game made me even more gkad we dodged the Les Miles bullet. To me, we got a better gameday coach, who's a nicer person, and who more consistently hires good coordinators - even without the huge bank LSU can offer to entice top talent. That offensive gameplan - holy shit. Conservative to the point of fearfulness at first, then no adjustments whatsoever all game long.
Great, great defenses, don't get me wrong. But Bama's D was hardly even challenged. Overall, a shitfest of the highest order.

a 1 game losing streak in the BCS
January 9th, 2012 at 11:52 PM ^
So how did ESPN pick 1936 as the year to start counting from for MNC's? Was that just so they could say Alabama has the most titles?
January 9th, 2012 at 11:57 PM ^
the AP started giving out a trophy (their numbers were for "AP or Coaches National Championships"). So, yes, it was convenient for ESECPN
January 9th, 2012 at 11:54 PM ^
Kirk and Brent likely doing our Sept 1 game, per Kirk
January 9th, 2012 at 11:56 PM ^
Well with Michigan a possible Top-Ten team (top-15 at the least), and Bama being the defending Natty Champs and a Top-5 team there's no way the Gameday crew wouldn't be there
January 9th, 2012 at 11:54 PM ^
Oh god...one last time to show "The Champ" before it never gets played again
January 10th, 2012 at 12:15 AM ^
Having a press conference?
January 10th, 2012 at 12:29 AM ^
Congrats ok state!
