Notre Dame fans were saying, "Another title's in reach!"

 

The luck of the Irish had carried them through,

 

With wins over Pittsburgh and even Purdue.

 

The Domers were nestled all snug in their seats,

 

With visions of crystal... just one team to beat!

 

And I in my houndstooth and crimson and white,

 

Knew for the Irish, it could be a long night.

 

When out of the tunnel there arose such a thunder,

 

Fans stood to their feet with amazement and wonder.

 

The ground shook like an earthquake had just hit the field,

 

And I felt Irish fear beginning to build.

 

They scattered and looked for some place to hide,

 

As the announcer proclaimed, "And here comes the Tide!"

 

I sang "Yea Alabama," yes I sang every word,

 

As Notre Dame marveled at the elephant herd.

 

Led by a man both lively and quick,

 

Everyone knew that he was St. Nick.

 

More rapid then eagles, his coursers then came...

 

He whistled and shouted and called them by name.

 

"Now Lacy! Now Milliner, McCarron, and Fluker!

 

On Barrett! On Mosley! On Warmack and Cooper!

 

Miami is where Notre Dame’s luck shall end.

 

The BCS trophy is ours to defend!"

 

Then after the kickoff, a beating began.

 

The Irish now knew they were outmanned.

 

They tried to get going, but never could start.

 

They were just simply no match for the defense of Smart.

 

Brian Kelley cried out, "This just isn't fair!

 

Saban was given a month to prepare!"

 

But his cries were not heard, they fell on deaf ears.

 

"We have to adjust! We have to switch gears!"

 

Then Notre Dame ran what nobody expected.

 

They faked the reverse, but the pass was deflected.

 

The ball was picked off! The crowd let out a roar,

 

As the Bama defender walked in for the score.

 

Saban spoke not a word to his Crimson Machine.

 

As the seconds ticked off, to number 15.

 

If one thing was learned in Miami that night,

 

it's that you don't bring a leprechaun to an elephant fight.

Uh yeah, that's cute considering Bama has only beat us once EVER. Sounds like similar to talk to OU right before we got them in October. If Manziel can beat you guys, no doubt Golson can. Our defense is way better than AM's. You guys are damn good but not as good as last year. Everett Golson will go down as another ND legend (Montana, Rice, McDougal, etc) after this one.

It's a joke man.....relax

It's a joke man.....relax

Gotcha. We don't play in title games every other year like you guys. We take it very seriously, as you can tell lol.

And that could be our downfall. At some point for the staff and players, winning has to become a relief and not a joy. ND reminds me of the the 1980 US Olympic Hockey team, Bama is the Soviet Union. We all know how that turned out...

Someone posted this on my off-topic forum earlier today. My first instinct was to rage but then I stepped back and thought meh, act like you've been there before, nerd. I mean, I was only 8 years old, but I *have* been there before. It's clever and funny and I shouldn't take shit so seriously

And Mrs Clause ran to the shitter

she had a pain in her stomach

she didn't know what hit her

she dropped her drawers

and pulled out the tampon inside

it was covered in crimson

and she exclaimed "roll tide!"

^^^nice^^^

Tide - where do you find the time to make that stuff up??

I have to admit it was cleverly written ...

ohhh even the color schemes match!

 

I think it would be awesome for both Notre Dame and Alabama to wear their home jerseys.

 

Would that be confusing? They're completely different colors, but both kinda dark.

And then you woke up and realized it was all just a dream! The Irish remained the number 1 team! They held up the crystal way high in the air and did not drop it like the Tide did last year! So keep dreaming Bama Fans ND is the winner the Leprechaun's having an Elephant dinner!

Nothing wrong with a little harmless rousing.

Yeah, except this year's ND team has similar talent to the Tide....unlike the '80 hockey team that was never expected to win--with good reason. If you guys were playing Ohio State for the title, the analogy might hold true.

The Irish in the title game

Give me a reason

It can't be because of their perfect season

Who did they play

What did they do

Who cares about Oklahoma,

Did they play mizzou?

The wolverines, we're equal with outcomes the same,

Since a win is a win unless youre notre dame

12 wins in a row

Not one FCS

From unranked to 1 in the BCS

With tuitt and teo

Shembo and nix

These Irish were no volunteers

Or fighting chiziks

The street brawl began with a left and a right

Like getting players to class

Saban knew he was in for a fight

No grey shirts could save them

Even with all the schollies that they'd pulled

With a month to prepare

Coach Kelly would not be fooled

Going into the half only down by three

The lil ol Irish hanging with the sec

The battle continued into quarter number four

Then golson to EIFERT for a go ahead score

The tide drove down the field

Then we're stopped at the twenty five

The kick went up and it sailed wide

Golson took a knee to run out the clock

As bear Bryant's faithful looked on in shock

Twas a magical season to be undefeated

To see the tides glory not be repeated

For tonight Irish eyes cried with tears of elation

An army of fans linked by football, not by relation

There once was a team from the South

 

Who showed up but got punched in the mouth

 

Their excuse was bad calls

 

And a coach with no balls

 

But all those at DD just strouthed

LOL. I don't think so, bud. Nothing will ever be like the Miracle On Ice, and this isn't even close to as lopsided as that was.

Notre Dame=Canada

Alabama=USA

 

Time to drop the puck...

The thing that everyone is missing is that ND does not have pressure on us to win the game. Over half of the people don't think we will. All ther pressure is on Bama. ND plays better away from home. Several teams were supposed to beat us this year. None did. Everything is setting up perfectly for ND. Bama is a good team but so is ND. I would say they are evenly matched. Take away the pressure of the big game and the chance to repeat and ND is setup perfectly to take it all. ND guys are practicing harder because they hear they can't win. Didn't you see Rocky V? I can bet that the Bama players are not practicing or taking it as seriously this year as they did whrn they were looking at redemption against LSU.

That poem sucked, bro.

My Roll Tide cousin sent that to me... What did he expect my reply to be? Lmao? I somply put, "Pretty Ghey, Huh?"

 

He got all upset...

 

Now it's, "lmao!"

 

 

However, I did forward it to my roll tide buddy (his dad played fball at bama).
