Thanks but I'll wait until the line comes out and since it's alteady Bama -7, I'll bet with the Vegas odds. If it' gets under 6, I'll put a lot more than 100 on it. Plus I'll actually get paid when I win.

Mama didn't raise no fool.

You're the one that said Alabama would win by double digits. Put your money where your mouth is. I'll send you my email address and I will definitely pay you if you win.

Since you said Bama will win by double digits, you should feel comfortable giving me Clemson +9.5.

I am confident that Bama wins by 10-plus--but why would I bet a dollar with you when I get another 3-plus points and an easy collection by betting with the pros? Come on dude, what kind of fool do you take me for? And I'm not suggesting you're a welcher, but regardless of intentions these message board bets never come to fruition. I've been there before.

For purposes of our debate, It will be gratifying enough for me just to be right that Bama kicks Clemmy's ass and disappointing enough if I'm wrong. You can rub it in my face all you want if it comes out your way. Point is, regardless of the final score, late meaningless TDs, Bama will kick Clemson's ass, put it in the bank. etc, , Clemson is a deserving #1 and should be in the NC game- I think they've proven that clearly--but they're the second best team. They haven't seen any team like the one they're about to play.

So your asterisks only apply to ACC teams? Or does it matter equally that A$M was on its 3rd string QB, a guy who had only had a bit of garbage time before that game?

As I said. Clemson will give Bama a better game than MSU for sure- mostly because of the sensational Watson and their excellent D, but Bama will win comfortably. THE Bama D will be ready for Watson and anything else Clemson wants to throw at them. If they can stop the run and pressure Coker, they have a slim chance. look what good stopping the run did for MSU last night.

It will be a very tough game for sure, but you are overlooking Alabama's history of struggling with spread offenses and mobile quarterbacks. Look what Chad Kelly did to them this year.

The problem at A&M is all of the prior coach's players have left and Sumlin is in over his head. The QBs leaving isn't all on Sumlin. These QBs are spoiled stating at a young age thinking they are great and should be playing. God forbid you have to compete for something in life.

Must be Liberal QBs.

One thing about this bowl season is.... outside of Baylor's win against UNC, the Big 12 has been horrendous. Blowout losses by TTU, Oklahoma, and now OKState (apparently).
