SEC title game thread

I agree with Boylen Over this years Bama team is significantly better with McElroy than with JPW. Also, our secondary recievers are more developed than last year, and there is not nearly as much reliance on Julio Jones. Also, the defense is slightly better than it was a year ago.

On the other hand Florida really, really misses Percy Harvin. They are not nearly as explosive as they were a year ago. They have been living on their defense and their offense, while still excellent lacks as much big play potential.

I have a pretty good feeling about this game.

I am pulling for Florida since I would rather see a Florida-Texas matchup for the national title.

You should want a Bama/Texas matchup. We have never beaten ya'll.

Since you still have a few hours to wait, Comedy Central is currently showing the AFI favorite Police Academy 2.

Florida going with the white helmets they wore last week, with their road whites. It doesn't look too bad.

McEllroy went to South Lake Carroll HS, is that where McKay went? Were they teammates?

[BoylenOver]

Bama had some success moving the ball, but settled for a FG. 3-0 Tide.

BYU actually offered McElroy. I don't know if they were teammates.

Bama with some early momentum coming out in the spread and stopping florida's offense.

[Commando]

Yeah-- I would like to see Florida exposed.

Touchdown Alabama. Florida killed themselves with a defensive holding call on 2nd down inside the 20.

[Babs]

Maybe I'm focused too much on last year and the iron bowl, but I'll be surprised if Bama keeps it within 10 let alone wins.

I agree, I don't think this years Alabama is nearly as good as last years, while I think Florida is pretty close.

lol.

This is the first time that Florida has trailed by more than one TD since the Florida Citrus Bowl following the 2007 season, which they lost to Michigan. (You may recall Michigan proceeded to lose their next game, to Utah).

Has Tebow been sinning?

lol.

Bama's quick start is just a set-up for a big raw-raw speech by tebow at half..."30 minutes for the rest of our lives" and all that.

I'm surprised to see how well the Gator offense is doing in 3rd-and-long on this drive. Bama's stuffing the run game.
