“I would say if that if we lost to a team in our conference that was not ranked by 30 points, we wouldn’t be in this conversation, you wouldn’t even be talking to me,” Saban told Scott Van Pelt. “We lost to Auburn at Auburn, which is a rivalry game for us. [It’s a] tough place to play. Georgia lost by a whole bunch there too, a lot more than we did, and they are in. They played their way into it. I think if the four best teams get in, we’ll get a lot of really strong consideration. I think our team deserves to be in it.”

Here was Urban Meyer's reaction to that...

That was a huge nothingburger Larry. Would have rather looked at Johnny Football’s sister’s tits again.

GaryGator•77 months

I'm shocked that Urban didn't collapse with chest pains after hearing Saban's comments

Hangit•77 months

Saban got on ESPN and sucked dick for 30 hours to get them in in 2011. He needed less than half the Chapstick this time. Congrats.

Xcalibur2017•77 months

Nick Saban is a POS....and so is Urban Meyer

JBearden•77 months

Sometimes in life you gotta suck a dick or two to get ahead. Just think how many dicks you gotta suck to catch up.Better get busy.

Neither of those two assholes deserve to be in it.

Warfarer•77 months

for fricks sake, is this being recorded on a phone while playing the tv on a set of headphones? my laptop won't even get loud enough to hear any of the video.

sardog12•77 months

Even Saban admitted that UGA played their way in. The biggest travesty of this year is that Bammer pleaded in even though they didn't play their way in.

DoubleDown•77 months

Why's it a travesty? Two teams were vying for 1 spot. One had 1 loss and the other team had 2 losses (one of which was by 31 to a 7-5 Iowa team).

TampaTiger22•77 months

Meyer totally pussed out. I would have roasted napoleons arse kissing

TT9•77 months

I'm sure you would.

JoseyWalesTheOutlaw•77 months

Mr Tuff Guy........if you ever wore a jock it would be over your nose

TampaTiger22•77 months

TT and josey, I understand you two are soft and have no spine. It's ok, no one judges you for being a pansy

ArcticSwine•77 months

College Spun is a joke. Reminds me of the National Enquirer but sports related

bamagreycoat•77 months

I gotta say Coach Urban Meyer is truly being very classy about all this.

Placebeaux•77 months

This is fun but Alabama will get their shite pushed in on national TV by Clemson and it will be hilarious. Alabama is the new Notre Dame.

DoubleDown•77 months

Just out of curiosity, what historically leads you to this conclusion? Obviously this is what you WANT to happen but not necessarily reality.

bamagreycoat•77 months

That's what you want to happen Placebeaux. Sometimes what you desperately want to happen doesn't always come to fruition honky.

justausedcarguy•77 months

The “eaux” in his username should explain all...

bamagreycoat•77 months

The committee went way out on a limb last year for Ohio St and the Buckeyes made them look like a bag of cocks.

SEC Grapevine•77 months

Update: After the decision was made Meyer said he completely understood because they were a 2 loss team, including a really bad 30 pt loss. He did not complain. He said the committee had a job to do and he thinks they made the right decision. He is looking forward to his Bowl game. Case closed. He was all class.

southernboisb•77 months

Then why did they jump PSU last year?

Oddibe•77 months

What else was he supposed to do but smile? He knows that Saban is exactly right about what he said. Secondly, he got in last year not winning the conference so he can't really say conference championships matter.

TigerSpray•77 months

sec office got what they wanted. bama laid down and got two teams in and a bye week out of it.

bayoubilly57•77 months

Ok, for all of you that are just happy that there are 2 SEC teams in the playoffs, just think about this. We do not compete with other conferences for recruits like we do with Bama. In my opinion the less Bama wins and the further they get from a national championship the better off we are. As long as Saban can lay out those rings and almost guarantee young recruits a shot at a title in the four years they are on the team they will go for it whether they get to play or not. I'm for the SEC but I'm for LSU first! BUCK FAMA!

eugene1928LSU•77 months

Agree 100%, the gumps are our #1 enemy.

3down10•77 months

Screw you for making me try to hear that.

SamuelClemens•77 months

Seriously, hate aside, there isn't anyone better than Alabama ranked 5th-25th. I'm ok with them being in. Their body of work speaks for itself.

Blind Zebras•77 months

When are lsu fan going to wake up and realize their institution is run by morons. Of course bama cheats the system and politicizes all things. That's what they do. Now you have a Saban clone in another political market in College Station to your West. LSU committed to being average and that's what they will continue to be. Alleva dumbass could have Jimbo in BR but didn't want to take the risk. He settled for mediocrity. From a business point of view, you have to completely respect Bama and A&M for having the vision of greatness and the balls to act on it. LSU, not so much

eugene1928LSU•77 months

U r a blind zebra. Do realize we went 9-3, 6-2 idiot? After only one recruiting class from coach O. Jumbo went 6-6, barely after 10 or so recruiting classes, i say it again, idiot. Plus $75, atm is so stupid and desperate its sad.

bayoubilly57•77 months

WE WOULD OF BEAT BAMA BY 3 TD IF WE HAD A QB. LSU HAD NOT HAD A QB SINCE BERT JONES!!!!!!!!!!! HE COOULD THOW THE BALL RIGHT TO YOU EVER TIME HE NEVER MISS!!!!!!!!!!

Techdog89•77 months

Please, before you speak for Tiger Nation have someone check your spelling, punctuation and grammar! You're not helping us with this incoherent mess. Please tell us you were educated in the Alabama public school system.

Kel995•77 months

You make our entire fan base look bad when you rage out like this.

WhoDatNC•77 months

Urban should just fake another health scare and go somewhere else where he may have a better chance of getting in.
