Why do people keep saying this?
It's not Bama's fault all the other teams shite the bed.
Okie State shouldn't have lost to Iowa freakin State.
Bama was one of the top 2 teams in the country. They deserved to be there.


Yes and no. Now when the NC game ended they had won 21-0. That's pretty impressive. So in that regard yes, they deserved to be there.

However, the 'human element' did indeed play a portion in their inclusion in the title game.IMO with all things being equal, had Alabama beaten LSU 9-6 in OT, the NC game would have been Alabama vs Oklahoma State. ESPN in particular loves them some Nick Saban and Alabama. And,like Duke in basketball to an extent, they did this on their own through their history and their resurgence under Saban. Still, very,very few teams in the country would get a do-over.

And as a fan of CFB, that's the way it should have been had LSU lost to Bama.

LSU in the Sugar Bowl.
