Could History Repeat-- In a BAD Way...??

THE University of ALABAMA is, once again, perched atop the rankings of college football. With a 6-0 record, a less-than-daunting remaining schedule-- save that November matchup with LSU and a projected SEC Championship Game-- The Crimson Tide looks to have a legitimate shot at an unprecedented THIRD STRAIGHT BCS Championship!

But wait-- let's not get ahead of ourselves! The LAST time BAMA was in line for a 3rd Straight Title-- in 1980, following the Championships of 1978 & 1979, they stumbled and were upset by Mississippi State in a 6-3 stunner, then fumbled away a game to Notre Dame to ultimately take themselves out of the picture.

The instance that I worry about is a repeat of the 1966 Season, when The TIDE was also coming off Back-to-Back Championships. ALABAMA AGAIN went undefeated and destroyed Nebraska in the Orange Bowl, only to be blocked out of the title game (which ended in a Notre Dame-Michigan State tie) and leap-frogged as both the Irish and the Spartans finished 9-0-1.

Could ALABAMA be in line for heartbreak again, as a lackluster schedule and TIDE Fatigue and SEC Fatigue cause voters to bypass ALABAMA, overlooking them for more glamorous or trendy teams...?
OREGON is scoring at an alarming rate. Stanford was the fave until-- Gasp!-- they lost. Johnny Manziel and Texas A&M were supposed to knock The TIDE off, but failed. CLEMSON and Florida State are both winning (in the ACC), and everyone's ready to plug them into the other slot in the final BCS Title Game. The 'pundits' are so eager to see The TIDE dethroned and the SEC knocked off that ANYthing could happen.

 I just hope BAMA can hang on, win out and prove 'em all wrong...!
ROLL TIDE!
