just let alabama beat the heck out of everybody.

I don't like ohio state, i don't like clemson, i don't care about washington.

Not a fan of alabama, or any SEC school really. Saban virtually never smiles. But they sure are good. Was talking during our game last night thinking "Alabama would never miss a tackle like that."

Alabama never misses tackles. Watch.

Having said that, there were two other times when the championship was a forgone conclusion (in addition to rodham winning the white house) one was the dynasty that would be ohio state. I forgot the other. Both lost.

And i prefer al abama to his cousin barrack.

Why not pull for the ACC? I will be.

I agree. I'd prefer to see Alabama win it all again. I'm almost to the point where I'm cheering for them to win.

Why? Because Bama winning another natty will not change anything. But if Clemson wins it, then that changes the whole dynamic of recruiting. Good luck if you think we'd ever win another recruiting battle against Dabo if/when he can flash his ring to the recruits. We will be left with Clemson's recruiting scraps.

Roll Tide!

I don't like most teams in the ACC.

I like virginia, i'm ok with wake and BC.

FSU and miami and unc are scummy.
I don't like dabo.
I am of two minds on dook.
Don't care for ncsu.
Pittsburgh and louisville don't deserve to be here.
Don't care about GT.

For the record, i like texas A&M. I like the academies. OK with texas, but their campus stinks.

I like the USC cheerleaders. I like the ucla campus and the fact that they only allow pretty girls in.

The ACC is now the Big East.

I love virginia tech.

For years I have been trying to jump on the wagon of a west coast team. I has always come down to Stanford or Cal. I live 15 min from Cal, but they are as pathetic as UVA.

So my natural choice would be Stanford as I live an hour from their campus and Shaw is a great coach. But whenever I go to a game, which is once or twice a year, I leave feeling "meh". It is maybe 20% the Lane experience.

Maybe one of my kids will go to a Pac12 school and I will gain some affinity for one of the programs at that point.

Saban's a West Virginian, so I generally cheer for him.

Roll Tide. :mrgreen:

Seriously in re to the SEC I'm a big Auburn fan (it was in my 3 choices to attend) and I like Texas A&M.

After that meh...though I'll say if Tennessee goes 0 for forever I'd be OK with it.

B1G...Purdue
Big 12...Iowa St. and Kansas St.
PAC 12...Arizona State and Arizona (sacrilege I know). + I like Wazoo.
ACC - Clemson, NCSU and UVA (I have nuthin' against the Hoo's when they're playing against others).
I like Army, Navy and Air Force with a nod to Navy as the favorite
Oh and I like my wife's school East Tennessee State University. :)
