been watching ESPN's ongoing show(s) in response to the 150th anniversary of college football (our helmets back in '69 are allsome, btw, in regards to this)---anyways, tonight's question is was "What if"--some of the possible responses: (in no order) 1)Nebraska TIED Miami in 1984 (Craig Curry bebacle an botched punt return, that had no bearing on this game, btw) 2) ND joins B-10 3) USC beats our 'Horns in '05 (not gonna happen) 4) Texas and ousux join PAC-10 5)SMU doesn't get death penalty 6) Bear Bryant goes to coach Dolphins 1980 etc My point is "What if Colt McCoy doesn't get injured vs Bama in NC game?" Damn, I'm not gonna give this one up---of course this is not the order that the show gave or all that they mentioned---but I got kinda perturbed that they never even mentioned that! I will carry that excuse (I that a good response??) to my grave---what do you guys (and gals) think??!
We win it. GDGD had a good game plan dialed up for Bama and Colt could execute it. We should have won that game and it still burns me to this day. He wins the Heisman he should have gotten his junior year and we very likely play in another NC game.
We don’t have to listen to Greg McElroy sound like a pompous arrogant a$@ thinking that he was actually a vital part of a championship, not the reality that he was the worst player on the field that night? He’s made a lot of money being the Alabama voice of reason.
