re: The way the voters should view the Alabama rematch situation

Personally, I think we are the favorite to win against any team we play in the NC game, including Alabama.
That being said, I can definetly understand the argument against the rematch. Lets say the game goes into overtime again, yet this time it's Bama that wins the game 9-6. Can you honestly crown Bama as National Champions in that scenario? The chances of that scenario happening could be one of the deciding factors in pushing an OSU, Stanford or VT ahead of Alabama. The legit argument of #1 having already been beaten by LSU, #2 not having won their conference and #3 not having even won their division, could very well keep Bama out of the NC game.

Funny to hear Lil' Nicky trotting out the "unbeaten in regulation" argument. Problem is, Gundy can say the same thing. Only it was on the road, and he has more wins over ranked teams and, possibly, a conference championship in an arguably tougher conference.
If OSU wins, the voters will have lots to think about next Saturday night. And Gundy will get to make the closing argument on College Football Final while Lil' Nicky sits at home.

They would have to. The coaches have to vote the winner of that game #1. I truly believe that bama would get the majority of ap votes. Sucks, but thats how it would go.
