Alabama
Texas AD says Big 12 teams have tougher road to BCS title game than SEC teams
By
Mark Heim | mheim@al.com
on March 20, 2013
Texas athletics director DeLoss Dodds.
The reason?
Scheduling as it relates to the number of teams in each league.
Because
the Big 12 has 10 teams, each of them plays the other nine every year
with no title game. Dodds contends the round-robin format makes it
tougher - and better - than playing a conference championship game.
"It's hard to get out of it," Dodds told the Daily Texan.
"But if you get out of it, you're straight into the national
championship. If you can go straight through our conference, it's a
direct line to the national championship. In the SEC, Alabama hadn't
played Georgia for four years. So there's maybe some advantages to it.
They play some nonconference games late in the season that soften their
schedule. The Big 12 is a tougher road to get there than the SEC because
of their scheduling abilities."
Many SEC teams,
according to the report, schedule games against nonconference opponents
late in the season to "give themselves a break from the rigorous slate
against SEC foes."
Speaking of SEC foes, Dodds said the Longhorns and Aggies would resume their rivalry, but it would be on Texas' terms. However, he did say Texas fans don't want to play the Aggies.
"They left," Dodds said. "They're the ones that decided not to play us. We get to decide when we play again. I think that's fair. If you did a survey of our fans about playing A&M, they don't want to. It's overwhelming. I know. I hear it. Our fans are important to us. I think there's got to be a period where things get different. I think there's too many hard feelings."
The two teams last played on Thanksgiving Day in 2011 when Longhorns beat the Aggies 27-25, which marked the 118th time the two rivals met.

TideNation: McCarron's leadership
March, 19, 2013
By ESPN.com staff TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- The ability to lead has never escaped AJ McCarron on the football field. He has always understood that having the ball in his hands on every play meant something. It meant he had to lead.
"It's part of the position, so I'm used to it," McCarron said Saturday after the first spring practice. "I've been playing the position since I was 4, so there's not much different to it."
The front yard, the high school football field, Bryant-Denny Stadium -- they're all the same to the rising senior. McCarron has played in Cowboys Stadium, the Superdome in New Orleans and knocked helmets in Florida's Sun Life Stadium, home to his boyhood favorite Miami Hurricanes. At each stop, the strong-armed and full-throated signal-caller has been successful. He already has won two national championships as a starter, and he finished last season as the country's top quarterback in terms of passing efficiency. A run at the Heisman Trophy in 2013 isn't out of the question, considering all the talent he'll have at receiver.
Derick E. Hingle/US PresswireWith
two All-American linemen and their leading rusher gone, the Crimson
Tide will be more reliant upon AJ McCarron's playmaking ability."I'm here to win," he said. "I want to win as a team."
McCarron has never shied away from his leadership position with the Crimson Tide, but this year will be different. This time around, he's being asked to do even more.
"I have to try to get the best out of everybody around, not just my position with the younger guys and trying to bring them along the way, but as a whole offense all the way around and even the defensive players," McCarron said. "It's my job to be more of a team leader this year rather than last year as just the offensive leader."
Said coach Nick Saban: "AJ's leadership is critical to our team. AJ has the capabilities of being a good leader and he has to assert himself as that and impact and affect other people by the example he sets."
