Oh. So Oregon or Utah deserve to be #5 over Bama? How do you justify this?


How do you justify Bama being #5? Just because they're Bama?

Who has Bama beaten that makes one say "Bama is certainly a top-5 team?"

Is it because they played LSU within 5 points? Inferior teams play great teams closely all the time. Just this year, UNC lost to Clemson by 1. Does that mean UNC is almost as good as Clemson? Of course not. Yet, without even realizing it, we apply a different standard to Bama when they lose just because they are Bama.

Do they have a top-5 offense? Absolutely.

Are they a top-5 team? I'm really not so sure.

You shouldn't be either. Nobody should. That's why this "eye test" bullshite is asinine.

No, frickhead. They have 1 loss (by 5 points) to the #1 team in the country! I'm surprised they're at #5, they should be #4. Georgia lost to South Carolina.

Who has Oregon beaten? Who has Utah beaten? Minnesota has one of the shittiest schedules in the country, they also have close wins against G5 teams.

If you tell me there are 5 or 6 teams who you feel would beat Bama today you are lying through your teeth. The purpose of the CFP to gather the 4 BEST teams for the playoff. And YOU KNOW Alabama is one of the 4 best teams.

You're just sick of Alabama. We all are. But bitching and whining that they're a "media darling" and they always get the benefit of doubt is just a fricking excuse. They have a great program and they win games, they prove this every single year - Orgeron knows the recipe to change that and that's what he's doing. But whining and complaining is not going to end Bama's dynasty.
