ND - 17
Bama - 10

This game feels like a blowout for Alabama. I'm extremely biased against ND but it feels like Alabama is the better team by far. I could be wrong (probably am) but ill say Alabama 28 ND 13 in one of those games where the losing team gets some meaningless points at the end of the game.

Ready to see it. I think this is going to go down to the wire, IMO. The key to it for ND is to keep Alabama's defense on the field. LSU did it and came within an eyelash of beating them. Texas A&M kept them out a lot too and won. I think that is a huge factor. ND needs to go on 12 and 14 play drives. Other than that, I don't see ND with much of a chance.

Going Bama 24
Notre Dame 21

Notre Dame 38 Alabama 13

This isn't even going to be close. Sorry ND haters.

I'm rooting for the Irish, but I have to predict Alabama 16-13

I have a really hard time believing Bama's D would give up 38 points.

I am thinking a 3 point spread too, but I think they'll both score more points than that. With ND, thier front seven is really good, but their Dbacks can be a problem. I think if 'Bama's line gives him some time, McCarron can pick on them a little. Especially if Lacy and Yeldon have good games.

Bama's defense isn't near like it was last year and seems to get a little tired if they have to play a lot. Atkinson has to have a big game and keep Bama's defense on the field for 12 and 14 plays at a time. Back at the LSU game, they really showed signs of fatigue because they had not had to play as much. Texas A&M exploited that too. Georgia kept them on the field quite a bit too.

I think this is going to be a great game. I am a bit torn on it because I am an SEC guy, but I Notre Dame has been my third team since I was little.

Yeah, me either actually.

Glad ur pullin for gods team.
there r so many factors to this game..

#1 ND cant score on teams with bad defenses
how r they going to score on us?
#2 i think dame is very overated..they beat no one other than stanford..barley
#3 the only comparison is we both played michigan
bame won 41-14
ND won 13-6
#4 mathups are everything..our O line against their front 7
their tightend an rb recieving against our linebackers
#5 we have nick saban an they don't

#6 roll dam tide

Lou Holtz is the most annoying college football commentator I've ever seen.

Dennis Miller might be the worst I've ever seen for the pros.

South Bend will be the place to be after this game..Mr Wiggley!

Dennis Miller on Monday Night Football was an insult to the game and it ruined his career. He has not done anything since MNF except appear on Fox News a few times and he is even dumber when he discusses politics.

Is this lou holtz?

If I remember right, he only worked MNF for one season, and that entire broadcasting team was wiped out at the end of that season.

Could be wrong, though.

Oh my..i am pumped up out of my mind..
we'll be singin rammer jammer about 10:30.

i think this game will b a lot of fun to watch.

Not if your a football fan it wont
