What The Crystal Ball Says About Texas And Alabama In The B.C.S. Championship Game

I guess we should begin this by looking at what the crystal ball has gotten right and what is has gotten wrong in regards to the Big 12 schools this bowl season. We're 4-3 in predicting the winners of the Big 12 bowl games and were happy to be wrong about Iowa State and Texas Tech. We told you that Georgia would have a big second half against Texas A&M, Nebraska would score over 30 on Arizona, Landry Jones would have a huge game against Stanford and Oklahoma State would struggle to score against Mississippi. So here's what the crystal ball is dishing up for the BCS championship game.
| BCS Championship | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | 4th | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Texas Longhorns | 0 | 6 | 0 | 0 | 6 |
| Alabama Crimson Tide | 0 | 7 | 9 | 10 | 26 |
- The game will get off to a slow start offensively. Both teams have outstanding defenses and they'll set the tone early. It'll be a one score game at the half with the Texas defense fending off Bama scoring opportunities and the Longhorn offense stalling themselves.
- Bama will have a big day on the ground. Yes, I do realize that the Longhorns have the top rushing defense in the country but Alabama's ground and pound offense will take its toll. There's a reason the Tide is averaging 5.1 yards per carry.
- Quarterbacks will have high completion percentages but low yardage. Neither quarterback will break 200 yards but McElroy will be the closest to that mark with more weapons in his arsenal.
- Bama will get sack happy. The BCS championship will be a continuation of what we saw in the Big 12 championship. The Tide will get to McCoy and keep him under pressure all night. Our simulation has Alabama with four sacks.
- Mark Ingram adds a MVP to his resume. With over 130 yards rushing and 40 yards receiving along with a receiving touchdown Ingram takes the honor of the game's most valuable player.

Doomsday
for the ut Whorns. Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch a people.
I think your spread is just about right however I think ut will hit 13. Their kicker is pretty good.

I don't like the prospect of either team winning
The SEC would get to gloat, and Texas would do worse. Here are possibly some trends to consider:
1. Heisman winners generally don’t play well in the championship game
2. McCoy has more upside in this game than McElroy due to huge experience advantage
3. Texas doesn’t run well anyway, so DT Cody’s impact will be nothing like Suh’s (Cody won’t sack McCoy)
4. Alabama will score first
5. Texas will make adjustments before the half and, barring turnovers, will shutout Alabama in the 2nd quarter
6. Julio Jones has not played to his potential most of the year
7. Texas can handle Alabama’s run game just as they have stopped everyone else’s. The simulation has Alabama with 200+ yds rushing. Again, that’s way and beyond what Texas has given up this year.
8. FG game… at best it’s even
A month ago after watching the SEC championship game, I thought Texas would be overmatched against Alabama. Maybe they are in the running game, but this plays into Texas’ strength. I just don’t see McElroy pulling it out. Texas will create some turnovers and, unfortunately, win.
Texas 27, Alabama 13

I like Texas
I think UT will win this game. All people want to talk about is how Texas can’t run the ball and how their o-line sucks and how Alabama is a big physical team who has a great running back and running game. The thing is that Texas has been an average even below average running team for about two years now and they have only lost one game in that span. Texas doesn’t have to run the ball well at all to win Alabama does. If Alabama can’t run the ball they have almost no chance at winning the game. There is no way McElroy will be able to move the ball against Texas if they can’t run the ball. If Texas’ number one run defense plays like it should Texas should be able to grind out a victory.
As for who to root for, I would have rooted for Alabama if it wasn’t for my experience in Miami last year and those clowns from Florida chanting S-E-C at the end of the game. I just can’t get that out of my head. I got to go for conference pride and even if they lose Texas fans will be unbearable and say “at least we got there” “4 out of 5” “call me when you win a BCS bowl” “how does the Sun Bowl taste.” Either way they will be smug about the game win or lose.
There was a firefight!!!!

Crystal Ball Methodology?
EA’s NCAA 10? slips of paper from a hat? In depth statistical analysis run by NASA super-computers?
The Georgia come back surprised me I have to say when I saw it happen, so what ever methodology used, I can’t dismiss it.
As for this game, I like Bama. I hate hearing how great the SEC is, but this year, it is a better conference. Texas toughest team they played was Nebraska, and they squeaked that one out. But between McCoy/Shipley making big plays and their kicker, I was going to predict: Bama 27 texass: 13

Fans are fans but whorn fans are the worst. God they made my life miserable today. I hope Bama wins by 30. But before they all pissed me off I was thinking 31-13 Bama with a late score to widen the gap. Seriously, i live in Texas & if I had had 1 more person say it 11:45 & Ou still sucks, or how bad OU was I was gonna scream. DO they not realize that they are slamming a team they squeaked by????

I know exactly what you mean.
Every time someone tells a whorn fan theat Bama is favored the first thing from the whorn fan’s lips is “yeah, but OU Sucks”. What kind of fixation is that. those morons are beyond help.
I wish no ill to any whorn or whorn fan, but I want Bama to stomp a large mudhole in the UT Whorns on the football field.

making fun of OU losing Bradford….and look how long it takes for the payback.
But…knowing Texas fans….they didn’t lose this game either, cause McCoy got hurt so this didn’t count. Which, keeps their record spotless.

We lost our starting QB and we almost beat Bama
We didn’t roll over and lose to BYU. We didn’t get embarrassed the way OU did against USC. We showed that we belonged, and we were more competitive than Bradford was against Florida …. and we was healthy.
Congratulations on winning the Sun. But, Texas did the Big 12 proud today by sticking in there with a Frosh QB after losing McCoy. It’s not like we got ran by West Virginia, or Boise State.

Yes, Texas did do the Big 12 proud
How they responded to the 24-6 halftime deficit should show that on it’s own merits.
But no. Like the typical A-hole Texas fan, you’ve got to do your best to validate it by comparing it to OU’s lack of success in BCS Bowls as of late.
If you weren’t one of the Texas fans that cheered when Bradford was hurt at the RRS, move along. The post you responded to wasn’t directed at you.
If you were, well…Forgive some of us for not forgetting the reaction Bradford got from Texas fans when he re-injured his shoulder. I hate that Colt got hurt. But we’re not going to give any sympathy from any Texas fan that found joy in Sam Bradford’s injury.
That’s just we roll.

I was looking forward to the most. They’ve ripped OU relentlessly about getting to the game and losing and how that isn’t an accomplishment to be proud of. Then they actually win the Big XII for once (barely), get to the big game, lose, and proceed to say “I’d rather get there and lose than not get there.” The word hypocrite can be used at pretty much any time to define longhorn fan, but it’s times like these where it really comes in handy.

Oklahoma should be dead to the Big 12
If anyone in this conference respected you, it probably ended when your coach went to help Alabama prepare for this game. Way to sell out your conference. Don’t ever want to hear an OU fan bitch about the SEC.

Maybe he did, maybe he didn't
Saban seems to indicate Stoops just wanted to see how the Tide practice.
But even if he did offer Saban a few tips, so what?
That kind of brain picking goes on ALL THE TIME in football at both the collegiate and NFL level. Certainly a lot more than you realize.
You don’t think Urban Meyer has some friends in the Big 12 that he leaned on prior to last year’s BCS Title Game?

The Bama DC disses OU's defensive schemes in this article
He says that they came, watched practice, and then left as Bama had a staff Christmas party right after the practice. And then he says we suck:
Alabama’s Smart on Stoops’ secret spilling
Smart said if had stuck around to meet with Sooners coaches, he isn’t sure how much help they would have been in designing a plan to beat Texas. “I didn’t think much about it, to be honest,” Smart said. “I’m sure Texas thinks they came over there and drew on the boards and told us all this stuff. But Texas, they’ve beaten them, what, two or three years in a row? I don’t even know what it is. Four out of five? [He’s correct here.] Maybe we’re talking with the wrong guys, if we’re talking to them.”

Sore loser UT fans
Just an observation from a Sooner ex-pat living in Texas, and tonight proves my observations correct. UT fans feel entitled to victories, recruits, etc. When they win, most UT fans are classy, especially those who actually went to school in Austin. But reading BON after a UT loss is pure schadenfreude. UT fans do not take losses well and will insult the home state of their chief rival to distract everyone from their failure and avoid talking about football. I love living in Texas, and most people in this state are hospitable and friendly but there is a plurality of UT fans represented on the BON site who are arrogant and who actually have the audacity to say they “piss excellence”.
I’m was not happy to see Colt McCoy go down to injury because as the post-game interview proved, he is a stand-up guy (I wish UT fans reciprocated when Sammy went down in the Cotton Bowl as UT fans cheered); however, I am elated that Alabama won. Conference loyalty is out the window, especially now that I hear that UT wants its own network (The Big XII could easily have a network with enough cable and satellite carriers just like the Big 10 Network, but guess which Big XII school is putting the kibosh on that…I’ll give you all one guess). So, in other words, there is no conference loyalty…but I will continue to root for Texas A&M, except when they are playing OU. I will no longer root for Texas Tech b/c of the Leach-James affair, but that’s an issue for another day. So, for tonight and only for tonight I say, Roll Tide!!!!!

Justification for lack of loyalty?
First, if anyone can find me a story about Urban meeting with a Big 12 coach to prepare for that game, I’ll gladly hate that school too. It is a crappy move when in the end we are all fighting for the same thing, and that is Big 12 success. I may hate OU and you may hate Texas, but would I rather you have lost to Standford? No. All of that is just ammunition for the debates about the strength of this conference which in turn have direct influences over our conference’s success in recruiting and human voting in the polls. Stoops may despise Texas as well but he does himself no favors by assisting an SEC school if that is what really went down. I’m also not buying the reason for going there. Stoops has plenty of coaching experiences and a championship under his belt, hard to believe he just happened to show up during the preparation against his biggest rival so he could “learn”.
by Pantheon on Jan 8, 2010 11:11 AM CST reply actions 0 recs
Plenty of Justification
Pantheon, I’d love it if Big XII schools, presidents, ADs, and even Commissioner Beebe worked for the good of the conference, but the fact of the matter is they do not. If they did, we would have a similar TV deal as the SEC, we would have a Big XII network just as the Big 10 has their own network (I guarantee you there would be enough cable and satellite carriers for it, and as much passion as there is in the Big XII for college baseball and other intercollegiate sports, it would attract enough eyeballs and advertisers to stay afloat.) I also would love it if we chanted “Big XII” at the end of big interconference games and BCS bowl triumphs. If you can show me proof that UT fans chanted “Big XII” at the Fiesta Bowl last year or at the VY Rose Bowl, I will eat my words…but I doubt I’m going to have to. Last night, after Alabama won, they chanted “SEC” over and over again.
The bottom line is there is no conference loyalty in the Big XII akin to what the SEC has. I rooted as hard as any non-UT fan when VY rammed the ball down Leinart, Bush, and Carroll’s arrogant pie holes in the 06 Rose Bowl, partially because I hated USC, but partially because I, at one time, actually believed in conference comradery. However, I have now realized the hit in recruiting OU has taken in recent years because of UT’s success b/c Mack Brown finally got his act together and hired a tough, defensive minded DC Muschamp who used to work for Satan and had success against Stoops in the 2004 National Championship Game. (However, after the shovelpass debacle of last night, I’m not sure how Greg Davis keeps his job…must have incriminating blackmail photos of Mackie or some leverage.) My fear is that UT will become the USC of the Big XII, and I think that’s exactly what UT wants. UT is all about UT, not conference loyalty. Why should OU tie one hand behind its back and be altruistic and put conference first? As long as we get 1-2 BCS representatives a year and get someone in the BCS championship game every couple of years to become the sacrificial lamb for the SEC powerhouse, the revenue the conference generates will not be affected. (I’d like to see some stats on this.)
The fact is that Big XII coaches, ADs, presidents, etc. work for their own interests, especially a school is Austin that keeps getting richer and richer in recruits, facilities, etc. And now UT wants its own network apart from the conference. (Shorthorn agitprop 24/7, I’m getting sick just thinking about it.) I would not be offended if Mack Brown met with Urban Meyer before last year’s national championship game to give him some tips and I have no doubt that he did give Urb some tips (albeit more discreetly than Stoops, b/c Mackie is so much more savvy in PR, politics, and ESPN brownnosing than Bob is). I don’t mind Bob meeting with Nick Satan; I just wish he had been more discreet about it.

Strange
I never heard any Texas players saying they were representing the Big 12 leading up the the big game, but rather UT. Conference loyalty is what the bottom dwellers talk about when it comes time to share the money, not something teams who play to win championships ever talk about. Strength of conference debates are good bar talk, but hard working individuals(and a good check book) bring in talent and develop it, not “conferences”. As for Stoops, well I just hate him now that he would go out of his way to give info that may or may not prevent his chief rival from wining a national championship, what an asshole. Oh right, F**K Texas. I would gladly sacrifice the conference if it meant UT would never win a game again, and I am sure all the sad eyed burnt orange lovers would do the same.

If you want a picture of lack of conference loyalty and how not to handle a loss, check out the postings on chron.com and BON. Some UT poster on chron.com (I know, I’m assigning credibility to a message board poster.) actually advocates for UT to take A&M with them and join the Big 10 conference. The Big 10’s great network deal is one thing, but also this poster feels that every educational institution in the Big XII other than UT and A&M is an inferior educational institution and that Big 10 schools are pillars of academic excellence. To make the Big 10 16 schools, this luminary wants Miami, Notre Dame, and Boston College to join them to make what this poster deems a superconference. This UT visionary sees the 16 schools becoming a research powerhouse conference (really?).
This poster wants OU and OSU to join the SEC (presumably ending the RRS…UT fans’ secret unspoken fantasy) and Colorado and Nebraska to join the Pac 10.
Conference loyalty for UT fan is codespeak for: Every other school in the Big XII Take your rightful place in the back of the bus.

This is great
When OU plays for the BCS title (or any bowl game for that matter) all we hear is “OU Sucks, Go Florida, LSU, USC!!” from the Texas side. Now, that they’ve lost their shot (wasn’t as easy as they thought it was to win one of those things) we all should have rooted for them because of conference loyalty. What a crock! Do you think they would care who we were cheering for had they won? Bunch of whiny losers!
by ccmachine on Jan 8, 2010 3:56 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
Agree 100%
You know on Roll Bama Roll last night and today, every other SEC school had fans commenting on their site and without fail it was "Congrats Bama. Thanks for winning one for the SEC. Can’t wait to get you next year in (name your SEC city, Knoxville, Athens, Gainesville, etc.). No backhanded compliments, pure respect. When a ShortWhorn troll steps in to these blogs, the familiar refrain is “But Colt was injured…if Colt wasn’t injured…you guys aren’t very good, etc.” Without fail, even the classiest of Whorn fans offering their congrats also threw in a backhanded compliment insinuating that Bama was just lucky and that the better team lost due to a fluke injury.
The UT fans clinging to conference loyalty is laughable because if we had beaten Florida last year, they would not have reacted the way other SEC schools’ fans reacted today graciously congratulating Alabama (Course I didn’t see any War Eagle fans complimenting Alabama, but that’s another issue).
UT fans just aren’t good losers. They “piss excellence.” Actually, UT fan, that’s not excellence your urinating, that’s Gonorrhea. And it looks vaguely yellow and burnt orange.
