re: Alabama 2008-present, greatest run in CFB history no DOUBT?

During this entire "mini-run" or "baby-Saban run"
the best team Bama beat was '11 LSU - and it took a 2nd chance rematch for them to beat LSU...not winning the division or SEC.
Sorry, but Bama has been placed in the title game by the media too many times while not even doing the job on the field even with a weak arse SEC schedule.
If USC got Bama's treatment last decade, they would have been in the BCS Championship every year from 2003-2008...and once you're in the championship, crap...anybody can win...USC won 6 or their BCS bowl games...and usually was playing the best at the end of the year...as the majority of sportswriters said at the time...
"if we had a true playoff - USC would win this thing every year."
So...when these "runs" are so subjective and so dependent on sportswriters and ESPN giving you another chance after another chance to win a little crystal ball - helping you out...meh?
Is it really something to brag about when you can't take care of business on the field and need the media to give you another chance?
Subjective and overrated - just ask Okie St. or LSU.
Fact is Bama couldn't take care of any business themselves...not winning the SEC so many years is a huge black mark.
This run is somewhat of a fraud to be honest and fair.

This is why I vote for Nebraska or Miami...
No second chances needed, no need for a Nebraska or Miami alum to rig the schedules so their rivals had a run that was 2-3X harder, and despite the fact they were already media darlings, they didn't need ESPN to "sell" their runs to the public.

Pay attention. IF Bama wins it again this year, there's no argument.
