One thing that's not being talked about (at least here) is the depth (that's how Alabama waxes teams in the 2H) and the speed (which will me magnified indoors) advantage they have, over everyone. This won't be a game decied by x's and o's IMO, it's will ultimately boil down to who has the better coach, the better players, the faster players, and oh, the experience. Washington is VERY talented, but this game is a huge step up, especially for a P-12 team that gets little national exposure to being with. Playing in the Rose Bowl is a piece of cake, by comparison.
