The Mrs watched, because her brother married a girl from Alabama and has lived there for a little over 20 years. We visit every year now, and she decided to watch the play off and final game this year. They won both, so if you don't like Alabama, then blame my wife for making them win by watching.
side note... I don't watch any sports, these days, ( outside of F1 racing ) especially college football. While we were visiting over Thanksgiving, we watched a chunk of a game with University of Mussouri playing. The other team, who ever they were, did some poor sportsman like stuff, so I said the Tigers were my favorite team for a day. They won in an exciting game, which I only knew because of sports highlights later. Guess what I got for Christmas... Yep ! A Mussouri Tigers sweat shirt. Now that I have the swag, do I have to be a fan and watch !?
