re: 2011 Alternative Scenario

There's no way to prove that Alabama was better than Oklahoma State; the two teams never played. Alabama had an elite secondary and an even better rushing defense. Oklahoma State would need a few uncharacteristic huge plays against Alabama to score enough to even have a chance against Alabama. Oklahoma State was a very good team; Alabama was great. Some here are following the logic that facing a much tougher schedule makes you the better team; that's not true. Florida and Georgia had identical regular season records prior to the SEC Championship game in 2012 despite Florida playing a much tougher schedule. Also, Florida did not have an embarrassing 35-7 beatdown at the hands of another team. They beat South Carolina 44-11. Georgia won the East under the broken current system of determining division champions. I know they gave Alabama a tough game, but I'm sure Florida and maybe South Carolina could too.

I may be changing the topics, but it's helping me point out how certain arguments don't work because different or worse scenarios occurred in other years. I'm not a troll; I don't hate your team.
