Not taking anything away frmo those seasons, but to say that Bama was very lucky in 4 championships and we werent is just wrong. Every team has some luck when it comes to winning a Natl Champ.


Ummm, Saban doesn't have 4 at Bama and who said we weren't?

If the OSU kicker doesn't shite the bed @ Iowa St in 2011 or if we just convert one first down last year or if tOSU didn't opt for probation, Nick still has 1. Hell, in his undefeated season he needed a miracle blocked FG @ UT. It's not like he's been dominating every team he faces.

My fault changed in to 3, my bad.

Dude, Bama and Saban have dominated college football for a few years. They dont dominate teams like us, TAMU, UF, etc. But, still gets the win most of the time.

Yea, like I said, every Natl Champ season has some luck it in. But his 3 at Bama were not very lucky. Yea, some teams dropped and they moved in and got the spot, but still got there and won.

So your taking away 2 of his 2 Natl Champs on "if" statements. If WV takes care of business vs Pitt then Les doesnt win 1. If were taking away Natl Champ on "if" statements you gotta do it both ways. If the Reid INT vs Bama was ruled a Bama catch on the play, we lose and dont even get to the Natl Champ.

Nobody said we werent, your statement was just that Saban has been extremely lucky in his Champ seasons. Yea, hes had some luck, but to say its extremely lucky almost makes it sound like it was BS they got there. Hes won 3 at Bama. Cant call that luck, sorry.

Yea, it was a longshot that Bama got in the Natl Champ vs us that year, but both us and Bama were by far the 2 best teams in the nation last year. And in the playoff format, it wont matter what conference youre from. We played them, and they destroyed us.

You can only control your team. Cant control what other teams do.
