I would bet everything my family has every owned, and the soul of my first born child if I could get Texas and 20.

The coaching, though stylistically different, are a wash.
When in this spot, I'm taking the QB that is the WINNINGEST QB in the HISTORY of college football,
and has won the MVP trophy in every bowl game he's ever played in.
People need to realize, that Terrance Cody, is no Ndomakong Suh. Cody is good, but he's a block eater, not a pass rusher.
Bama's D was great against a team that loves to run to set up the pass, and it beat Florida,
Texas throws so they can run.
Bama only converts TDs in the redzone at a 45% mark, that's LOW! for a team that is expected to win this game.
Texas has the top run defense in the country.
Watch for this, it's important!!!
--Texas calls it the Big Nickle.
--They'll rotate a saftey to the corner spot (he has the speed and skill to do it)
--Then they'll bring in Christian Scott to play Saftey and help stop the run.
Bama has zero film study for this package, as Scott just became eligable for the bowl game.
This will be the first time the use the package, and it will give the cerebral king, Saban, fits.
If someone wants to give me Texas and 20, than I'll bet any amount you want!!!
I think this game will be very well played, and will be close.
I'm taking Texas
Texas 26
Bama 24
