Roll Tide

I mean, I can't hate anyone in the SEC, not even Florida. They don't look good in white and they haven't lost a game since September of last year. It is only natural to loathe who's on top (ie Harvard, Duke basketball, Washington DC) but as history goes, nothing gold can stay. As much as I hate houndstooth beer mugs and all the talk about "Bear and the good ole days", Alabama is going to win this game. If both teams do their job, it will be a grudge match of a great game and the first conference title game to match undefeated teams together. Plus, you've got the two best defenses in the nation. The matchup will also dictate the first time a team in the Top 3 will lose since early September.

Alabama's out for blood from last year's title game and is rolling off an incredible game against Auburn in the Iron Bowl. I still can't hate Florida though, even the UT in me. Florida is faster than fast. Tebow will be facing a defense determined to stop his run and he'll be forced the throw the ball. Florida will still dominate the short third downs and play strong football, even if its a bit one dimensional. Strong football isn't desperate football though, and if they find themselves in a jam, they'll have to gamble and they haven't had to do that in a long while. On offense, Alabama's got a host of backs that could start just about anywhere and they'll run to high heaven. They'll pull everything out to combat Florida's fantastic defense. The secret weapon is Bama's tight end who they've used to mix up their offensive scheming all season. But who knows? That's the best part about it. It's the SEC. Ingram for Heisman. Roll Tide.
