2008 Alabama Football Bet

Okay ladies and gents its that time again let's see if you're willing to bet your avatar for or against Alabama. Last year some of us wore orange and blue for a month and that made us see Crimson RED!

Here is the bet for this season:

If Alabama wins the National Title you wear the Crimson Tide's logo from the end of the game till National Signing Day! If I lose I will wear a logo of an opposing school deemed fitting by the winners. So how deep does your pride run? Do you believe in destiny? A bunch of you were scared well into the overtime with Arkansas and even more frightened by the overtime with Georgia. Well fear no more Alabama is back stronger than ever before. We got the signees we needed this season ROLL TIDE!

Re: 2008 Alabama Football Bet

So here we go already, eh? Well, Bama should be closer to the BCS this year... but I see Stoney's raised the stakes. It's gotta be a national title this year, not just a BCS bowl? Something tells me the Tide side won't have many takers. Sure you want the stakes to be this high?

How else am I gonna get the haters to come out of the woodwork. My little bet caused more people to follow Alabama football on this site. Besides it can be said now that you can win the BCS with tweo losses. I just don't want to see Ohio State in the finally again. I am telling you guys barring some unforseen injury Alabama is well on thier way to achieving the goal. Look at last season when we had little talent and we were'nt blown out. Of course we had some players quit on Saban during the season. But he will soon root them out if he hasn't already. Saban will show everybody why he is worth 4 million a year. So are you in or not?

This bet shows true believers from fair weather fans.

Re: 2008 Alabama Football Bet

I was taught at a very young age not to take candy from a baby – but this one is has my interest. I will take this bet without guilt or second thoughts. We have never had a three loss team in the BCSCG and it won’t happen next year.

Re: 2008 Alabama Football Bet

Stoney you still have time to reconsider - like just a BCS bowl or something - Outback perhaps.

Have you looked at the schedule? Clemson (way overdue), Arkansas (new coach with high powered offense), Georgia (preseason # 1 or 2 on the road), Tenn (on the road), LSU (on the road) and Auburn (winner of what 10 in a row over Bama) - I see three losses at best

Alabama 31 Clemson 12 / Alabama 34 Arkansas 10 / Alabama 34 Georgia 28/ Alabama 48 Tennesee 6 / Alabama 42 LSU 9 / Alabama 56 Auburn 0 then Alabama faces Florida in the SEC Alabama 36 Florida 14. Then we go to the BCS.

Re: 2008 Alabama Football Bet

Oh I get it now Bama is going to go from scoring 27 points a game to 40 - yeah that works and the defense is only going to give up 10 or so points a game

Edit: Alabama 17 Clemson 28 / Alabama 23 Arkansas 17 / Alabama 12 Georgia 34/ Alabama 17 Tennesee 23 / Alabama 23 LSU 42 / Alabama 27 Auburn 31 (OT loss) then Alabama faces BYU in the Outback Bowl.

Re: 2008 Alabama Football Bet

Oh I'm in

I can see Bama in a BCS bowl not next year but the next and possibly playing for a shot at the NC in 2 or 3 years - provided you guys don't run Saban out of town after 3 or 4 losses next year.

Maybe the offense will not average 40 points a game but I don't think Bama will loose four Conference games. But I also think it is a bit much to think that Alabama will get to the National Championship this next year but this past year proves anything is possible. Oh by the way JRL remember Georgia did have to win in OT to beat Bama this past year and I dont see it being any easier this next year for SEC team.

Of course! Don't you know - Nick Saban's the magic man!

It's only February, and already, this is shaping up to be one fun college football season!
