God bless, Ramzy.....

SEEMINGLY NO ONE IS PICKING OHIO STATE TO WIN THIS GAME. WHY ARE THEY WRONG?

Ramzy: No one picks against Alabama, ever. This is normal. They're not even a trendy upset pick because Alabama is a humorless program that plays completely joyless football. There's nothing funny about Alabama despite it having an impish coach who colors his hair and wears argyle. Everything that touches Alabama dies or ends up 49th out of 50 in an important metric like literacy, upward mobility or body odor. Thank God for Mississippi. I already forgot what the original question was.

Not enough media types zero in on the vanity of Saban. It is a relatively untapped source of humor.

The line is down to 8 as the "sharps" weigh in. WooooT! Cardale magic!

I really thing it's vanity's brother, ego. But regardless, what padt 'he's a man in his 60's who uses 'Just For Men' hair color' could you go after? Something about hitting 50 makes many of the older football people color up: Ditka, Fouts, Berman, et al. But other than that, he's not a fashion guy. He wears a $100 watch and sensible shoes.

Soon this will all over and nothing but an unpleasant lingering memory will remain, probably for life.

Now that Michigan has found a way to bring the NFL to CFB, "draft dodgers" like Saban & Meyer will have no place to hide.

National titles and playoffs will now go through Ann Arbor.

Thank you King James.

It is not an either or equation. He has a huge ego and he is vain. He was vain at MSU. Embrace it, you have a great coach with the vanity of a great European courtier. If they were in style he'd have a marvelous powdered wig.

Huge ego, no doubt, very competitive.

Wouldn't give two shits if it is true that he's uber vain. In fact, I would celebrate it as long as we continue to dominate.

But my question is, other than 'Just for Men' what evidence is there, though? I just haven't seen it or noticed anything that I would consider vain. To be honest, I don't even think the hair color is all about vanity. He knows that if he looks old, age will be talked about with him and used against him in recruiting. He's approaching the mid-60's and few people ever bring up age.

You mean like Bear Bryant and his peculiar proclivities?

Ohio and MSU recruiters started ragging on Lloyd Carr's age when he was 55

Exactly.

Nick will be 64 on his birthday later this year.

[Rocky Bleier]

Dantonio will be 59 in March. My guess is he retires at 62.

Baylor taking the bloom off that OSU win over MSU in the B1G, 24-14 halftime.

Reads like a cheap porno mag every time.

[iam416]

You didn't watch OSU dismantle MSU.

[Optimus Prime]

Correction 31-14 , Baylor.

Nah, I missed most of the season, spent the last 1/2 on autopilot pick mode and may Hoke rot in hell for it.

Not sure how Meyer will hang with Saban 4, 4Qt?
