now the opinion editor for the crimson -- newspaper. University of Alabama off more Alan Blinder is with a down there at the as experience I guess as he fanfare at the Georgia now. And here in video college but -- contributor for foxsports.com. Peter Schrager going to be both thank you. Start figure out -- to see this thing I mean.

I -- the exit their chance -- facto national champs again I think it is the national champion winner of that detect a winner's going to be the Texas -- at Texas winner. I think Florida wins I think they went by six points -- point I think it's the Indiana and why do you think Florida roots just experience and tenacity and Tim Tebow. And -- say what you want about the guy he get -- not the team it was last year it's not -- on the playmakers person -- not -- Louis Murphy is not always perfect -- you don't forget our place and but. Some people that -- good enough job and I think tomorrow they get the job done down the stretch and the fourth -- you know stopping him in the end on Allen -- you see it.

You know at Alabama we had a lot of confidence throughout the entire season you know we. Question I came to Alabama and no one thought about couples it was going to be as good as it ended up being. And Indiana went over the last that we had a few heart attacks along the way this year Tennessee had a little long -- We did twelve -- this year and were doing they get their dinner tomorrow night.

Well that that would be fascinating -- they you know but I I gotta tell you -- looking at that the last game of the year it's the rivalry game the last game of the year. You gotta go play -- if -- from Alabama anything can happen every time but that was that went right down the wire and on the other hand Florida just annihilated Florida State.

Has the K club and many Auburn Alabama game it's a test I think they got through it. You know marking and I think any mention and he struggled thinking that they found a way down the stretch I'm -- not good guy and no one expected anything out of really made the big play. Meanwhile Florida hasn't tested in a couple weeks I think the last time those -- was Arkansas game and that was back in October -- Florida wasn't playing well then now after the big hit on Tebow hit a lot of people wondered if they -- gonna ever get back to where they were yeah and and they just steamrolled through since I mean at Florida State game lasting -- have been Bobby bowden's last trailer season game in.

When I was a whimper and that was really just Tim Tebow showcase.

when you look at this match up against Tim Tebow and that powerful offense how in the -- Alabama has a terrific defense I don't think it looked any better all year than it did in Oxford. But it but I I want I wonder how you think they're gonna be able to contain that that Florida offense with Tim Tebow scamper.

You know Rolando McClain and a spectacular job force for Alabama all year especially on sacks. If Alabama is able to to put pressure on early Yankees and on throughout the game Tim Tebow is -- good enough player. That if you sack him once again a lot about recovery is gonna recover in Alabama keeps the pressure -- all -- that we shouldn't have too much difficulty.

I you've got to keep the pressure on but it's not to say not to much difficulty that would be quite something indeed I can't I I'm. I just don't see a scenario under which Alabama blows about Alabama's not a blown out team and and I don't he would sit too well what -- hit. You're the -- told us about -- the -- there. No it wasn't and I I think I think that you can argue that Alabama may have played its most complete game that day they did. They didn't make mistakes their defense was outstanding in making five field goals in that game. But but again against that's against what was seen at the time at least as a top flight team. Florida has taken those kinds of -- and chewed him up and spit him out.

It's true to confidently Eric Beverly look at -- LSU the game down in back derision. Of the early again they want thirteenth area Florida did and you go back -- this game if Julio Jones -- couple touchdowns -- I'll -- it is it is an Alabama they're fantastic decade. Guys remember here Aaron Hernandez. Riley Cooper these are not national names they're not you know. Can we talk runner council but they're gonna make -- difference I think that's had a chance Henry the punter yet of Florida they got incredible pain isn't going to be a field position game and I think they get the job.

Alabama's been living off field goals all year they've had a lot of gains they've been able to hit a lot of things.

Right -- if and the kicker is fantastic kicker but you know conduct this search semi vacation I don't think they even have an opportunity. Almost an Oklahoma State to -- the Cotton Bowl so I don't veteran back to the Kumble for illness that's nice I think they they handle their business I think they went on the better.

Alan good luck on the ball down the hole all that Gator fans I don't know it's it's all of disgusting but. I'll -- want to talk to my friend Tim Brando over he just. He thinks this may be the highest rated as it cheapens it shifts -- game in the history and I wouldn't I can't comment on that's been more hyped and more you know I've hired and watch and I love that organ organs they can attack him. Tired today because of the rush part we -- can thank you thank you good luck to all those all the -- this.
