This is the debut of Snark Attack -- a look at the funniest, smartest and snarkiest tweets posted on Twitter during a major sporting event. In this edition, the Twitterverse takes on the BCS title game between Alabama and Notre Dame. The Tide rolled 42-14, and although the game may not have been that entertaining, the folks on social media did their best to amuse each other.
Early-onset Rudy fatigue ...
Enough. With. The. Rudy. Jokes.
