This is not a slow footed Ohio State team

They have a great quarterback who has won aridiculous number of games in his impressive career, and they have some great receivers that will challenge Alabama's secondary every bit as much as Florida did Butthat's pretty much it. The offensive line was horrid against Nebraska andthat's not the first time they have struggled. Alabama has an opportunity to do significantdamage if the Texans doesn't play better up front. Alabama's game plan may be quite similar to the one they used against Florida. Offensively, get McElroy and the passing game going and force them to back off the line. Mix in Ingram and Richardson when possible. Hope to gain momentum in the running game as we approach the forth quarter Defensively, try to contain McCoy.

McCoy is very mobile so he presents a challenge similar to Tebow, but he won't do many designed runs. This opens the door for Alabama to attack him more conventionally with the rush. McCoy has performed poorly when he has been pressured. Alabama will need to be in its worst mood when it arrives in Pasadena.McCoy will get his yards, but Alabama will try to limit his scoring opportunities. If you had a knee jerk reaction after winning the SEC that Texas was just going to cooperate by bowing down to the SEC champion, think again. This is not a slow footed Ohio State team. Alabama will have to be firing on all cylinders and will have to avoid turnovers, or they can easily find themselves on the wrong end of history this January. Alabama is the better team, but as Nick Saban said just two weeks ago: "Sometimes the better team gets their ass whipped." The script has been perfect thus far.

All we lack now is the Hollywood ending. What better place for a Hollywood ending than California.. Drop 55 points on somebody and you get that team’s attention. Do it as a 20-year-old rookie in your 5th NBA game and you get everyone’s attention.That is what the NBA’s newest budding star, point guard Brandon Jennings did to the Golden State Warriors on November 14. Okay, so he should get a ten point handicap because it was the Warriors, but still, that is fantastic shooting by any standard.He is currently leading his team, the Milwaukee Bucks, in scoring at 21.3 points, and assists at 5.8. He is also grabbing 3.9 rebounds a game at 6’ 1” and 169 pounds.I don’t want to call it the Brandon Jennings Show, because he is really all about learning to play a complete game for a Milwaukee Bucks team that took a chance on him.
