"But for the first time in modern history, two teams from the same league will play for the national championship.
And not just any league, but the SEC, the one that has the evidence to show it's the best league in college football but lacks the discretion not to brag about it."

It reminds me of an Alabama shirt I've seen before: "We're not arrogant.  We're just better than you."

Ha!  He calls it the "SEC-industrial complex."  That's funny. It's also true.

Quote
The 99 percent could Occupy Bourbon Street if they could handle being trapped amid wall-to-wall Tigers and Tide fans.

In the end, however, the Crimson Tide's strength could be seen in their old-school defense.

If the power shift between offense and defense is cyclical in nature, we are in perhaps the longest period of offensive dominance since the relaxation of pass-blocking rules in the 1970s.

Yet defense still dominates. It may be harder to find, which may make the defenses that do shine even more dominant. Their ilk is rarely seen.

The 2011 BCS season will end with the Lakers and the Celtics playing for the crystal football.

The guess here is that the 99 percent will root for both LSU and Alabama to lose.
