For the life of me, I cannot fathom the media's eagerness to absolve Alabama of, what is now clearly, a very bad Ole Miss loss.

They were supposed to beat TAM, so why is everyone acting surprised? Meanwhile, they are drooling over how good Florida looked in an LSU loss, yet won't give LSU credit for a huge quality win?

Thank you!

They are doing to Bama what they used to do to USC. They make every team they play out to be some great, unbeatable team who has an amazing chance to get the upset. Then when Bama does beat them, like they should, the media is blown away that they got the win ice a "great" team.

Prime example was Georgia. When have they ever showed up in a big game? And yes, everyone knew they'd beat A&M but the media pumped them to be great as well so now they can drool over that win too.

He gets his fair share of criticism, but Joey Galloway was the only one I heard point this out last night. He used the same rationale when addressing Stanford; their loss to Northwestern isn't looking all that great either.
