Mr. Chips, you obviously don’t watch any Bama games. In most of our games this year, we’ve put our 2nd string in immediately after half time and our 3rd string in for the fourth quarter. And last week against our hated rival, Auburn, our 3rd sting was not allowed to score (the fans were wanting to take it to 56-0, but Coach Saban would not allow them to do it.). Why the criticism of Alabama just because you are for Notre Dame? Why not say these are two great universities with 2 outstanding football programs ...both with probably the richest tradition in football history. It should be a great game!! I’m a proud graduate of the University of Alabama. Love the University and got a great education there. But I like Notre Dame too..it’s a great University. Roll Tide!

Why? Because I attended the 1973 Sugar Bowl and the four-letter words I heard on leaving the stadium are still ringing in my hears. I was with my family, including my mother, for Pete's sake, and I was embarrassed. And it wasn't just a few of you. And Auburn? Please. Perhaps with your comment "the fans were wanting to take it to 56-0" I should rest my case.
