Title: ESPN analyst Jamie Newberg says dominant recruiting created Saturday's showdown Post by: Coach Hank Crisp on November 03, 2011, 09:26:26 PM http://www.montgomeryadvertiser.com/article/20111102/SPORTS/111020326/Montgomery-QB-Club-ESPN-analyst-Jamie-Newberg-says-dominant-recruiting-created-Saturday-s-showdown
Newburg was in Alabama last Thursday visiting Hueytown High- (Jameis Winston). Coach Saban was at the Hueytown vs Benjamin Russell game last Thursday night. Quote If anyone could have envisioned just how big this season's LSU-Alabama game was going to be, it would've been someone like Jamie Newberg. But not even Newberg anticipated the enormity of this Saturday's showdown in Tuscaloosa. "You knew these teams had a chance to be in the top five and probably challenging for the (SEC) title and have a chance to compete for the national title, but no one could have predicted this," Before the season started, many pointed to Nov. 5 as perhaps the key date of the season, when two of the nation's heavyweights would perhaps settle the SEC West and maybe clear up the national title picture. But the game between Les Miles-led LSU and Nick Saban-led Alabama has grown into what some are calling the biggest regular season matchup since Nebraska vs. Oklahoma in 1971. "Since Nick Saban has been at Alabama, no one has recruited better than him," Newberg said. "And LSU's not been too far behind. "Things could always change, but right now the top teams are Texas, Alabama, Florida State, Auburn and Florida," he said. "Clemson had a good year last year and could capitalize on the season they're having.

How on earth does working your butt of 365 days a year to get the top recruiting class in the country translate into undefeated seasons with NC aspirations? ND doesn't do it, and yet people still try to hand them the title. (http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/hprofile-ak-snc4/71055_5331310558_7184396_n.jpg) |
