LSU Vs BAMA

Naw plenty of teams play good ball but in the last 5 years the championship has come through the SEC. I just love good football ...... As long as Ohio Sate doesn't win another one I'll be ok!

Now it sounds like football is alot like hockey in that a team that you would never think would win the Stanley Cup wins. Like the year the Ottawa Senators were the favourite to win and they had been playing great but a team of ducks from California won. It made no sense to me. Every year is different with teams. Some years they do well and some they dont. Its weird like that. I think the coaching staff have alot to do with that. This may be Alabama's year to win in football. Sometimes I wonder if it isnt just plain luck who wins. Now what does SEC mean?

Sorry ma'am. South Eastern Conference. Made up of certain colleges in Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi, and Tennessee. Texas A&M has joined the conference also. The SEC is divided into east and west divisions, and depending on in-conference win/loss records, 2 teams may have to play each other for the SEC championship.

Whoever wins the SEC often kicks some other team's hapless azz for the national championship.

Interestingly enough, the potential is there (not likely, but my fingers are crossed) for 2 SEC teams, Alabama and LSU to play in the national championship game. The game's contestants are determined by computer crunched statistics, so If Oklahoma beats Oklahoma State, and I can hack my way into that system it could happen.

Football here is like hockey there. They both cause normally civil grown men to act like idiots. There used to be a pro football league in Canada, but it sorta went out of business. Y'all prolly thought it was a sissy sport, they don't even carry sticks.

There's a pro hockey team not too far from where I live, the Nashville Predators. The games are fun to go to, those guys are great athletes, but where I grew up in Alabama we shut everything down if a single ice crystal forms, so I don't understand the finer points of the game.
