Vibes compared to previous championship games?
Wondering how everyone feels the vibes are compared to the previous championship games. Obviously we are heavy betting favorites this time. The last time that happened, it wasn’t pretty. Recent favorites haven’t performed as well as one may think in NC games.
2021–Felt like some were excited but we were in more of Notre Dame’s shoes as we needed a lot of things to go right to beat that Alabama team. They didn’t. 2015–A lot of confidence was spread around after the fact because we beat Alabama but that was a good Oregon team and we were significant underdogs to Vegas. 2008–I wasn’t in the country at the time so I couldn’t tell you. 2007–Super confident. Wanted to play Michigan again. Dismissed Florida and found out. Players admitted they were not ready. Format is different now so lay off time shouldn’t be an issue. But this is still my nightmare. A well coached team by a younger coach. I can’t go through this again. 2002–The biggest underdogs. Didn’t even feel like we would win until Cie Grant grabbed Dorsey.
