I was going to write a few thoughts on the BCS National Championship Game but there isn't a great deal to say. Alabama were so far better than Notre Dame that it was over at half-time. Alabama are playing at a level that few teams can live with. They completely deserved their win.
A point I made in earlier blogs was that there was little to choose between the top 6 in the SEC this season. They all beat and lost to each other, and this posed a question of who was better. The problem was this. Alabama only lost to Texas A&M, and that was due to by far the best current player Johnny Manziel. However, Alabama only narrowly beat Georgia. Who lost to South Carolina. Who lost to Florida. Who lost to Georgia but beat Texas A&M and LSU. And so on.
But I think the bowl season has changed, or should that be clarified the order. Alabama were so dominant I don't think there can be any doubt who the best team is this season. And the confusion I outlined above also shows the SEC remains the strongest conference.
