I'm thinking Bama is pissed about not being in the NC and will be looking to prison rape OK. What do you guys think?

Given OU's bowl history it could happen... though Bama could sleep walk and pull a Utah... given the line is more than 17, I wouldn't touch this game with a ten foot pole if I were in Vegas.

Can't see Nick running the score up on his friend Stoops. Bama wins 31-20.

They did a piece on him and his relationship with the kid with Cerebral Palsy, named AJ also.

Yeah, I saw that. Damn nice story. You know about AJ and the little girl with cancer, don't you?

I can't see him doing that either, but this one's already about to get ugly, it looks like. Hopefully Nick will be calling off the dogs by halftime.

Landon's mom pulling another laugher at the UA game today when her other son committed to Fla. They should tell her a few years from now when they get drafted "No money for you. It is what it is."

It takes a lot of field goals to reach 51.5! Go UNDER!!!!

Really wish ND did more uptempo like this and hopefully we'll see it next year. It's the only way to really get after teams like Bama. Keeps them on their heels.

Running the play clock to "0" on every play was a huge advantage to opposing defenses and also drove most of us nuts.

Nice drive by the Sooners. Wonder if they can keep it up? Good point about going full speed, doesn't let Bama to adjust their D.

I'm not aware of that story.

AJ and his mom were visiting S. Alabama Children's Hospital Christmas Eve 2011 and met a little girl undergoing treatment for leukemia. She gave him a wrist band and he promised to wear it in the BCS National Championship game against LSU a few weeks later. He stayed involved with the little girl and has worn her wrist band every game since. He's now her official godfather and has committed to raise her if something happens to her parents. Apparently, he's a really good kid.

ESPN tells of the shared 'miracles' of Bay Minette child, Alabama quarterback (video) | al.com

The ESPN piece on it is very good:

There's one way to beat a team with significantly more talent, and that's GREAT COACHING.

OU is absolutely outcoaching Bama right now with a beautiful uptempo offense and solid defensive schemes.

Exactly what didn't happen in the ND Bama game last year, but what was needed fro ND to have a shot.
