Its looking like the big thing separating Georgia and Alabama obviously isn't talent or recruiting......its the team leadership and drive, the creativity of coordinators, the overall competency of coordinators. The infused will from the coaching down to the graduate assistants to the backup field goal holder.I agree with you. Most Bama fans felt something was missing from this team pretty much all year. I can't argue this was a championship contender when we went to the wire against Texas, Texas A&M and Ole Miss. I think the committee should have slotted TCU 4th, let the bloodbath happen in the semis, and just take the criticism for a Big 10 rematch in the other semi.
Oh dear God I'm going to sound like Dubose when I saw this......they seem to have a.....oneness of purpose. This Alabama team never seemed to have that.
