And all those teams (Oklahoma kinda excluded) suck on offense, or at least they did when they played ND. Michigan and Stanford had the wrong QB playing and OU is the biggest bowl of corn flakes in college football.
Besides, I'm predicting four ND turnovers and very few sustained drives on offense. That's what will drive the point total up.

I win my confidence poll for north of $1000 if Bama wins. Nothing has ever felt like such a sure thing.

Id be absolute shocked if we turn the ball over four times, really dont see that happening. You are also confusing running, pro style offenses with bad offenses. Miami was probably a middle of the pack offense that we faced but given their style of play they do create a bunch of points and yardage, they just expose their D to do the same.
And even given four turnovers i dont see 44 points happening. TO get there you prolly have 5 TDs and 3 FGs and the ND D has allowed just 10 total TDs in the whole season playing better offenses than bama.

Wrong. You have not played one offense as good as Bama this season. Oklahoma may score a bunch of points against bad defenses, but they are not as solid as Bama.
Bama has the best O line in the country, and I suspect you'll see them open it up quite a bit tonight. ND's D is the most overrated unit in the country. It's not hard to look like worldbeaters when you're playing Boston College, Michigan State, BYU and Wake Forest practically every week.

Bamas OLine is damn good but Texas AM is better
if you believe that ND's D is so overrated you are correct to believe that itll be a blowout but i dont think you can honestly believe that to be true

I think Notre Dame might get caught looking ahead to the hockey game against the Gophers tomorrow. Could be a deciding factor.

ESPN can do so much non-football-related stuff in a football pregame show. It's as comical as Onterrio Smith's career.

So I guess Katherine Webb was the most exciting thing about the game?

The ND defense has played zero offenses better than Bama's all season... which is what he was trying to tell you.
Notre Dame had not seen that level of size, speed, strength, talent, and execution.
