MIAMI -- — Trying to figure out which of Nick Saban's Alabama teams is best is akin to picking Michelangelo's greatest work of art or Ernest Hemingway's best novel.

They are all excellent in their own way.

The first to win a national championship came in 2009 and is still the only Alabama team to finish unbeaten under Saban in 14 seasons of unprecedented dominance.

The 2011 national champions had maybe the greatest defense of college football's modern era of high-powered offenses. The current Crimson Tide team has one of the most prolific and talented offenses in the history of the sport.

"Every team is different. Every team has its own personality," Saban said Sunday. "But it's hard to compare teams."

The top-ranked Tide (12-0) are set to face No. 3 Ohio State (7-0) on Monday for the College Football Playoff championship in search of their sixth national title with Saban as coach.

Alabama favored by 9 for my betting folks.

Enjoy the game fellas.

Justin Fields vs Mack Jones. Let's see if Justin Fields can solidify his second spot in the Draft, or if we actually got a chance?

Let’s hope Mac Jones has the game of his life while Justin Fields looks like garbage.

We need Jones to shoot himself up the board tonight so one of the other 3 (Fields, Wilson, Lance) falls to us.

This would work if they drafted based one game worth of scouting.

Guys I will be paying close attention to as much as I can. Fields, Jones, Leatherwood, Meyers, Wyatt, Deonte Brown, Surtain, Moses, Dickerson, Wade, Werner, Browning, Borland, Rucker, Farrell, Forristall, Barmore, Jobe, Sermon. Yeah, pretty much the whole entire two teams. 

I’m excited to watch the Surtain vs Olave/Wilson matchups

If Jones go to have the game of his life then give me Jones over Fields. The kid can play QB. Fans keep thinking that he’s another McCarron or McElroy just because he’s white and not Tua.

I don’t disagree. I think he’ll end up going in the 1st round. He throws a really nice deep ball. Mac Jones is a non athletic version of Ryan Tannehill.

I think we need to pay a lot of attention to Mac Jones. He's going to be available when we pick and I think he's the best choice. How he's not getting more talk after #1 regular season for his team, appearance in national championship game and being the arm behind the WR who is getting the Heisman Trophy.

Won't be watching.

How Saban's Alabama teams remained safe from the NCAA while other SEC teams have been constantly scrutinized is beyond me. Fug him and the Tide.

Ohio State doesn't belong. The selection committee had to justify them being ranked as a top 4 team before the season started, after the season started for everyone else, and remained ranked before they even played a game. They only played 6 games and their own conference had to change the rules so they could play for their own conference championship.

While other ranked teams were losing games because they had players out due to COVID, Ohio State decided not to play half their schedule and it didn't hurt them at all. Hell, if I were coaching a team this season, I would have opted out of every game once I posted first game-first win. I'm in the CFP at 1-0!

      Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?

      By CamWhoaaCam · Posted

      Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.

      Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!

      You do know the biggest military base in the US is located just an hour from Raleigh in Fort Bragg right? Military families are family oriented. A hour drive to games is nothing compared to traveling 3 hours to Charlotte.   Cmon man there is nothing happening in Western Carolina other than Charlotte. I only go west for outdoor activities and some nature/mountain views.
