Part of the beauty of being Alabama is that you never have to apologize for a loss. There's always an explanation for why it shouldn't be held against the Crimson Tide.

At least put the title of the article into your post and possibly quote at least a part of it.

Sounds all fancy in all and UF was slighted but they win they get in and other teams deserve to be there as well. It would look better if bama was 5-6 but no one would make me believe they deserve worse even if ole miss shite the bed vs Memphis. Bama would roll Memphis to wherever Elvis is hiding. And they won out in after an early loss just like Ohio state. Swapping tcu n bama would have shut all the debate up which I doubt ESPN really wanted. Whether bama is 4 or 8 it changes nothing. And Lsu can relate to hangover losses to bama because im certain we finish stronger without such deflating close losses last two yrs in Baton Rouge. If any sec team loses one and finishes 12-1 winning the sec title they're in. No problem with bama ranking because committee knows it works itself whether 4th or 8th.

They are positioning Alabama so they don't have as far to jump, because they think they'll win.

They probably also really believe that bama is already better then lsu although the rankings they did hide that fact. All the pressure is on bama.

He is not lying though. You could easily find the excuses from Saban himself after every loss. The media drums up excuses, the fanbase drums up excuses. It's hilarious to say the least.

Basically Bama gets a playoff spot every year until they get two losses

I don't think the final 4 will have any team that is not a conference champion. Unless they leave a 11-1 sec champion out to put Alabama in with 1 loss

WE just need to win so we can end talk



So I understand the media infatuation...Alabama plays great Defense... they are disciplined and they look good on TV...so they eye balls tell you.. "they probably are top 5 team, forget the ole miss loss, look at them now"

Meanwhile Baylor and TCU wait for another kickoff...

I rewatched the 9-6 game today where the Gumps LOST on their home field.

Tracy wolfson asked Les immediately after the game about a rematch.

I remember that and Les was classy about it. I think a decisive beat-down will put this to rest.

What gives me a lot of hope is that our average teams of the last few years came close to beating them.
