re: Saban in July: If we lose two games, win the SEC and don't make the playoff, I understand

The committee showed us that it matters more, regardless of the resumes.

Ohio State had a conference championship, a better strength of schedule, and three wins better than Alabama's win over LSU.

You are confused because you seem to be only able to comprehend one variable to the equation.

Wins matter. Losses matter. Some wins are more important than some losses. Other losses are more important than some wins. I'll give you examples if you need them.

The bottom line is that, while Ohio State had some decent wins, none of them were elite wins. And, more importantly, they had a big loss to a playoff team, and as disastrous, blowout, embarrassing loss to a Iowa.

Alabama's wins weren't as good as Ohio State's, but they suffered no bad losses.

When you consider everything, Alabama is clearly the right choice. And, I hate Alabama. I tried to explain this to you last week, but you smugly replied that Ohio State was going to get in.

You were wrong.
