Nothing against Bama, but I've never had much use for the ever arrogant and pompous Nick Sabin. So a begrudging congrats on winning another title.
A couple thoughts on that.
Given his spastically poor performance throughout the game, no doubt Bama will be on the hunt for another place kicker. Missing a couple "chip shot" field goals that almost cost them the championship just isn't acceptable. This dude can return to campus safe and sound, though he would have been the all time goat, see potential lynch mob, had his errant leg resulted in a loss.
Not sure who the corner or safety was for Georgia that got burned on a simple fly pattern in overtime that brought a sudden end to the game. The Dawgs had the Tide backed up in overtime, well out of field goal range to even tie it. Everybody knew they were going to go deep, except perhaps that defensive back. Duh.
But I wouldn't want to be in his shoes when he has to go slinking back to campus in a couple days either. All the TV folks will show that replay over, and over, and over again. And each time, Georgia nation will wince.
He's in a heap of trouble with the student body.
And well he should be.
Hey, if a player can reap the praise for making a game winning play, then he should also suffer the humiliation when his bonehead moment cost his team a game -- especially the national championship.
What's good for the goose......
