Well, we all know that Clemson didn't do too well last season. They folded like a cheap lawn chair. VT is known for choking too. 'Bama, on the other hand, is getting to be known for strong starts.
Clemson and Virginia Tech, two teams from the northeast corner of Virginia, two teams destined to have history with 'Bama. Another team from Virginia, one not always on the tip of the tongue, West Virginia. They will be a contender in the Big East again very soon.
Let's talk about some other Midwestern powerhouses, take Notre Dame as an example. Illinois provides all the players that ND needs or ever will need. Notre Dame, a Catholic college built in the 1500's, is nestled neatly within the top left hand corner of the state of Illinois. Long a bastion of championship level football, they recently have fallen and rather hardly.
But, alas, they are still a good team to have on the schedule. I would love for Alabama to play this storied Illinois institution. Coach Saban offered an invitation to them but, they declined.
Of course, we have the Penn State Nittany Lions lined up. That will be a wonderful match-up. Seems Coach Saban is partial to teams close to his original western Virginia home.
