If Bama wins another title this year, I'm totally fine with Saban leaving. I'd actually be fine with him leaving now after the recent three. I'd prefer he stay, but sometimes people at the top of their professions need a new challenge. It's not like NCAA coaches are just leaving for another coaching gig ... they rebuild programs. It's like starting a new game of SimCity after your city already kicks ass.
... but I don't live in Alabama.

Snyder is well-renowned for his spread option, not to mention his issues with single-serving butter

That wasn't too hard. Did you even try googling Bill Snyder and Spread Option?
Also, Oregon got a lot good players by cheating, so that's another big reason over the uniforms.

Never said he invented the spread offense. Said the Spread option and Zone Read. There is a reason Urban Meyer went to visit Bill Snyder and why he is referred to all over the place on those 2 schemes. Spread offense originated in the 50s.

LaMichael James. And that's the only ones we know for a fact. Pretty crappy that Oregon couldn't even convince a guy they paid for to stay. Cool that you think that because Seastrunk transferred it's no big deal that Oregon cheated.

I imagine Baylor will now jump Ohio State. Dominating performance tonight. Likewise if Stanford wins they too should jump them. Stanford just manhandling Oregon.

This Oregon Stanford game has all the earmarks of a classic "close first half, blowout by the end" Oregon game. It's also all I can watch here in Birmingham, no flames game here

Oh dear God I hope Stanford wins so it will shut up all of the annoying Oregon fans. They almost make this state uninhabitable.

Oregon typically has a loss every year to blow their spot in the championship game. So if it's not this week it will be another.

Personally I would love to see all the undefeated lose this weekend for a complete chaos in the BCS

Cold?! This is perfect football weather for a Canadian! 13 degrees on game night, I love it. I'm also reminded of my weakness for Southern girls. Dear god.

Shoot it was 41 this morning!!! 41!!!!! that's not cool man!
Oh and the southern girl thing, wait til you get on campus.. Girls dress up for football games here, and prepare for a lot of yoga pants.... Some shouldn't be in them because they're too big and some don't need to be in them because they should be naked at my house.

Not so fast...sigh.
As much as running the clock out is a good thing for Stanford, I was wondering if the conservative playcalling would prop the door open.

Haha I'm cool with the too big, I'm a fat guy myself! I was also debating getting a Canadian flag and sticking it in my hat, but I don't know if that would be good, or get me shot!
As for this game ... holy crap Oregon is scary when they get going. Not over yet!

No, it was a blocked FG, not the Oregon offense that kept them in this game. If they didn't block the FG the game was a/ and is a blowout.
The scoreboard doesn't dictate how bad the ducks were roasted

Canadian flag is good, as long as you're not a Yankee (like from new york type) you're good. Hell most will probably start asking about the hunting. It's still bow season here right now.
You're not too far from Hoover Tactical that has a cool indoor range that allows you to rent weapons (automatic ones too) Check out Jim n' Nicks BBQ down the street from you. The Galleria will be pretty busy right about now with some decent talent walking around.
