So you really think there's a huge conspiracy that involves many non Alabama affiliated people, which allows them to dominate? Basically you're saying that the SEC as a whole uses their power to allow one team to cheat in every way possible?

Theres no denying Bama gets favorable treatment in the SEC. Scheduling for sure and officiating whether intentional or not.
This is common throughout college football. Its the main problem with the sport. The big 12 favors texas, pac 10 favors USC, and Big 10 favors OSU and Michigan, and also Notre Dame gets a built in advantage. These teams will always get the benefit of the doubt, the "eye test", the favorable tv, bowls, contracts. As long as there's polls or committees instead of doing it on the field, this is what you'll get. The blue bloods benefit from the human element.


Need a 8 team playoff to include all conference champs and 3 at large. Remove the human element as much as possible or we'll get the same 4-5 teams almost every year.

SECN and PF give Alabama preferential treatment and a majority of the coverage

New England gets a lot of coverage in the NFL, too. That's what happens when you win. It has nothing to do with Bama bias; it is bias toward champions. It's basic human nature. When asked why he attacked the Twin Towers Osama Bin Laden said that people prefer a strong horse, and this was his way of showing that strength.

Another feature of human nature is that the weak horses complain that the strong horses are cheating, getting preferential treatment, have a built in advantage, etc. You see this in the rationale for Affirmative Action programs. Liberals whining about caste privilege are the same as SEC fans whining about the location of the SEC office.

Except in this case it is actually a built-in advantage

Living in alabama it was common knowledge that eddie Lacy’s family was put up in a house to live outside Florence Alabama. A Florence government worker pointed that out to me.

I when someone says Saban is a good coach.

GTFO here with that nonsense.. That just plain stupid and you know it..


Had Saban never left LSU , LSU would have been in the same boat as Bama.. Hell I no there's no way at all to prove it ,but LSU quite possibly could have 10 Titles at this point had he'd not left.

Granted he's not the most warm and fuzzy person and dare I say a-hole, but not a good coach??? You're fricking retarded..

Won’t happen. Bama makes the SEC, NCAA, and television networks too much money.

Disagree. Look at the TV ratings since the CFP started. Ohio State vs. Oregon has the highest ratings, and they continue to go down with Alabama vs Clemson.

The college football world is tired of it.
