So he agreed back then that Ohio State should be in essentially?

He clearly meant that if the Committee is basing the selections of SOS, that he would understand Alabama being left out as a 2 loss SEC Champ.

Sabans scenario involves not losing to unranked teams or losing by 31. Those things don't compute to him because he hasn't lost to an unranked team since 2007 and he hasn't lost by more than 14 at Alabama.

Seems to me that in July he called it. Said a two loss conference champ could get left out. Sorry, Ohio State.

No, that’s not at all what he said. Just the opposite.

He basically said the exact opposite of that:

OSU lost twice. How hard is this to understand?

"But if it goes based on strength of schedule and how many good teams you beat, then that is the best way to pick the teams to be in the playoff."


How is this not Saban saying Ohio State should be in?

I don't care. Just hypocritical of him to change his tune.
