Brad Edwards says BAMA weakest 1 loss team to play for BCS title "resume-wise"

@BradEdwards_BCSFor those misquoting, I said Alabama is probably the weakest "resume-wise" of all 1-loss teams to play for BCS title.
Is he saying THIS YEAR....or EVER???
(edit: it sounds like he is saying both, just couldn't believe that someone from the SEC would say that about a team out of the SEC)
p.s. I'm looking forward to playing BAMA, just thought it was an interesting quote

i'd imagine it is all time considering only 1 1-loss team is playing for a title this year

Funny wasn't this the same Edwards who was saying that Bama was the strongest out of the 1-loss teams this year? I could have sworn also that he mentioned a time or two that this could be one of the best Bama teams ever, in his argument for Bama over anyone else vs LSU.

Those that want for us to get beaten will try to inspire Bama by making these comments. They would say, but not in public, "they were just wrong. Bama is great" if we lose.

He has a point if you simply look at schedule and not style points. Their best win was Arkansas.

He may be right, good thing game's aren't played on resumes. These are clearly the two best teams. Going into November 5th it was the 'Game of the Century' and everybody agreed they were the two best teams and heads and shoulders above the rest. Because LSU kicked an OT fg, suddenly that's no longer true?

It's double talk. As an Alabama alumnus and ESPN employee he is only saying that now that Alabama is in the game. Before the selection, he talked about Alabama being a great team that will breeze into the NC Game.
I believe he's actually afraid that he, along with some ESPN employees, will be indicted on charges of conspiracy to commit fraud.

It is DEFINITELY in the history of the BCS.
Here is what folks like Bama alum Brad Edwards and the rest of the Bama-loving media DID NOT want to talk about until ESPN had ushered Bama into the game:
1) Bama is the SECOND team to make a BCSCG that finished 3rd in their conference (Nebraska did in 2001...thanks to a Bama poster for pointing this out)
2) Bama is the only team to make a BCSCG that defeated only THREE TEAMS WITH A WINNING RECORD (Arky, Auburn, and Ped State)
3) Bama is the only team in the history of the BCS to make the title game by beating only TWO teams ranked in the final top 25
So, yes, Bama's resume is by LEAPS AND BOUNDS the weakest.
Ahh, the life of a media darling.

You know, Edwards only had about 150 opportunities to say this in the weeks leading up to the final vote, but he waits till the day after Bama is "secured" in the game to state the OBVIOUS.
