Are we being fooled?....

As with all aspects of our daily world the only

constant is "change".

Now to see change coming, you must embrace research!

Research the "weather forecast" for clothing choices

or vacation destinations!

Research "reviews" for your choice in movie options!

Research "company financials" for stock purchases!

And...when the topic of College Football comes around?

ALWAYS....ALWAYS research the team and what 

Vegas has up their sleeve...Cause if you think that 

Vegas ALWAYS favors the team they think is gonna 

win...then you have no idea how much Casinos cost!

I think we might have a bit of a "bait and switch" on 

our hands when it comes to the BCS National Championship!

Back in November when EVERYONE was telling me 

how UNBEATABLE K-State and the Ducks were

I kept preaching...YOU GOTTA DO RESEARCH!

I kept saying.."They will be exposed!"

Well...CBS Sports was listening!...November 6th 

this article was released and caused quite the up roar!

It was in essence a blind test of saying..

"Take your fandom out of the equation!...Look 

at this like these are 5 black and white teams!"

Well..unless you're an idiot...Your first choice

 was always 

C=Notre Dame

and second choice was 

E=Kansas State

Never would you choose team A or D unless you 

were picking with your heart and not your head!

A=Bama & D=Oregon

This was the ONLY way to get the fans in the 

city I live in to make an "educated" choice!

This I think, is what Vegas is BANKING ON!

Animal Planet did a story last year on the 

DUMBEST animals in the world!...

CHICKENS were number 1 on the list!

In fact, if a chicken is left in the rain and they look 

up into the rain, they are too dumb to look away 

and will drown!

But a 25 foot tall Chicken can still do damage!

Here's the issue...HUMANS were on the list also!

That's what Vegas banks on...you not thinking for yourself,

damages you and profits them!

So lets do a 

BLIND DAMEFAN TEST

and see if you're at the top end of dumb?

=Chicken

or at the top end of smart

=Researched Human

Now to be fair!...FAIR...We took the 

top 6 opponents of Notre Dame and Alabama 

for our study!

See...my thought, being WAY smarter than 

the average human, has always been that Bama, on 

paper, benefited TREMENDOUSLY from

W.Kentucky-Florida Atlantic-W.Carolina

Arkansas-Auburn

5 games that were almost all shutouts!

Bama scored 45 pts per game while only giving 

up 1.4 pts per game!

 That doesn't even count Ol'Miss & Mizzu and Tenn!

Now I know what your thinking..

"How did you get the 5th and 6th opponents for Bama without

picking D1 AA teams?" 

It was hard!

DEFENSE

TEAM A:

Points Per Game: 10.3 

Total Yards Per Game: 285

Run Yards Per Game: 89

Passing Yards Per Game: 196

TEAM B:

Points Per Game: 20.5

Total Yards Per Game: 332

Run Yards Per Game: 102

Passing Yards Per Game: 230

Analysis?...If you score 21 Poins on team B YOU WIN!

And vs their top 6 opponents?...almost all 6 did!

Now go research each team...and one allowed only 10.7 points per game

ALL YEAR...vs their tough games..and vs their less tough games!

YOU DON'T SCORE MORE THAN THAT PERIOD!

They don't care WHO you are!

But team B?...cant' say that!

So....Who has the better Defense? ______

And when you look at the numbers...the REAL numbers

Team A is not just better...but MUCH BETTER!

Points Per game:10.2 points less per game!

Total Yards Per Game: 47 yards less per game!

Run Yards Per Game: 13 yards less per game!

Passing Yards Per Game: 34 yards less per game!

Now...for fun...Here is:

TEAM C:

Points Per Game: 18.8

Total Yards Per Game: 329

Run Yards Per Game: 155

Passing Yards Per Game: 208

Oh..and Team C's top 6 opponents record was 59-15 

with a stronger Strength of Schedule than A or B!

TAKE A SECOND TO STUDY THIS!

TEAM A=NOTRE DAME

TEAM B=ALABAMA

TEAM C ready?=MICHIGAN STATE

In my opinion...Bama might be the 3rd toughest Defense

we've faced ALL SEASON!

Behind Sparty and The Cardinal!

This game is not a shoe in...it's not un-winnable!

It just is what it is....a good game vs a good opponent

that in my opinion we are just slightly better than!

So I feel the IRISH will expose the Sheep 

wearing the wolves clothing!

As long as we don't lay an egg like we're a chicken!

 Even Nuns THOUSANDS of miles away know!

Big Shout out to my boy 

ANDREW METTLE

for the research!

AND...for all you haters!....METTLE is a 

Michigan Fan...so he doesn't have a dog in this fight!

But he can pull the ladies!

His prediction....ND by 10!

Merry Christmas

GO IRISH & GOD BLESS!
