TotallyOz Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 OK guys, do is going to be this years National Champions? Will it be LSU? Alabama? or do you have another team you think will pull it off? And, who is going to win the Heisman? Any sports fans here want to speculate? Quote
Members RA1 Posted November 28, 2011 Members Posted November 28, 2011 I think LSU has the talent, the coaching and the confidence to be the national champion. Best regards, RA1 Quote

Guest CharliePS Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 The only way it won't be LSU and Alabama is if Georgia absolutely annihilates LSU this weekend, which isn't likely. Quote

I doubt that as well. LSU is amazing! But, Bama rocks! (growing up in the shadow of the great Paul "Bear" Bryant! Quote
Members RA1 Posted November 29, 2011 Members Posted November 29, 2011 I am an Alabama fan and am surrounded by many such. I was at the game in 1980 whenever when Alabama beat LSU in Death Valley. I was at the game in BHM when Nebraska first played Alabama there. I have personally met some of the head coaches over the years but not Paul "Bear" Bryant although several friends have so much memorabilia that sometimes I have thought I might have met him. He coached his last game at the Liberty Bowl in MEM. Etc. However, I believe the initial question was/is who will be national champion and my answer was LSU. I am appreciative of the fact that at least a few follow NCAA football herein. Best regards, RA1 Quote
TotallyOz Posted November 29, 2011 Author Posted November 29, 2011 I met Bear on several occasions when I was young. I didn't know him personally but just a handshake. He was like a god to most of us. I love college football and grew up with a family that talked about it all the time. I still get some joy in getting tickets for my Aunts from time to time for games. They have more Alabama shirts than I care to mention. When I was growing up, I use to wear Auburn just to piss them off. LOL It worked wonders. I might not have been able to be a jackass to them in most ways, but wearing an Auburn shirt to Xmas dinner sure did the trick. I am going to be curious to see who wins the games this weekend. It is still an exciting season and one I have enjoyed. Quote
Members RA1 Posted November 29, 2011 Members Posted November 29, 2011 Yes, I know a few Auburn grads who are generally shunned hereabouts. However, we have flown more charters to Auburn, AL than we have to either BHM or TCL, but, that may be because both of the latter are within easy driving distance and Auburn is further away from MEM. However, to be completely "honest", go SEC. Best regards, RA1 Quote
