If any Bama fans want to join in an avatar bet, just post here that you are in.
If Bama wins, I'll change my avatar (which hasn't changed in my time here) to a Bama mascot for a period of 30 straight days beginning when I get back from the BCS Championship)
If Notre Dame wins, you change your avatar to the Notre Dame leprechaun (the one the University uses not some parody or something like that) for a period of 30 straight days beginning within 3 days of the end of the BCS Championship.
No matter how many bets, my change, if necessary, will only run for 30 days (in other words they won't stack upon one another but instead will run concurrently, afterall Bama is a heavy betting favorite and is the supposed KING of the college football world. Heck, they could probably beat the Chiefs right? )
Put your avatar where your mouth is. Don't be shy. Step up and join the bet.

Despite the fact that Alabama fans can't count and declare themselves national champions in years when no such title exists (most people outside of Alabama agree that Alabama has 9 National Championships, will be 10 after tonight. Claiming 14 is absurd), they are a much better football team than ND.
After waching the 1st quarter tonight, I'll say this too- ND would struggle to achieve a .500 record in SEC play THIS year. They would not stay on the field with South Carolina, LSU, Georgia, or TX A&M. I also think Vanderbilt and Florida would give them a very good game.

Yup. Manti looks LOST and can't wrap up on a tackle to save his life. Not going to get any easier when Derrick Henry is in Alabamas backfield next year, either... He's bigger than Yeldon and Lacy and he's only a senior in HS.
After Manziels bowl performance and now Te'o's, I think we can all agree the right choice was made.
Bama is bigger, stronger, faster it seems at every position. T'eo is losing a small fortune tonight. MJ

And the RELEVANT Notre Dame tradition continues of them getting their A**ES handed to them when they play real opponents.

When I look at ND's season, I keep reminding myself that USC was terrible this year. That win was overrated. But ND beat Oklahoma on the road and beat Stanford. I thought we KNEW Stanford was a great team. The Oklahoma and Stanford wins is what led me to believe that this might be a close game....
How in the world did this ND team beat Stanford and Oklahoma?
At this point it is hard to beat Alabama and Saban when they have weeks to exclusively prepare for an opponent.
I watched in person (horror) when they dismantled Michigan in the Kickoff Classic 42-14. Ironically that was the same score they beat Notre Dame by last night to end the season.

And yes I'm still smarting from losing to South Carolina on the last play of the game I'm happy this season is over with

After the Sugar Bowl game I was thinking how the world Florida beat A&M,South Carolina and Florida State?
I was trying pretty hard to goad MrMint or Lodibrewfan into a debate over how many championships Alabama has, but alas, they have passed. I work in Birmingham and have this debate about once a month...Perhaps now that there are 10 VERIFIABLE championships, that will be enough to satisfy the Tide fan base and the other 5 championships that Alabama fans made up can finally be retired.
I will be the first to admit that some of the pre-war national championships are a little shady. The main one is the 1941, we came in third in the SEC that year and still claim it as one of the 15. However, the same thing happened last year too,

Thanks my friend. She is doing great. Just started another peewee basketball season last Saturday. We are trying to decide whether or not to renew our Rangers tix cause if everything works out for me with law school, we will miss a lot of the end of the season. She doesn't mind losing any of the players they've lost so far. To her, everything is good as long as they keep Nelson Cruz (her favorite).

the only thing that will come of this for manti will be he is either a liar or an idiot for falling for this. that is how people will view him from now on if they want to. good article by mitch albom in the detroit free press if anyone wants to read it. basically says who was really hurt in this whole thing.

Where are all of the other confident SEC/Bama fans? Y'all won't risk your respective avatars even though the SEC is almost a double digit favorite?
For that matter, where are my fellow Irish fans? Y'all can play too.
Hopefully I get a lot more to play and it will look like a gaggle of Leprechauns around here all throughout January
The Irish have landed in South Florida
