Same goes for UGA if they win I fully expect them to have to play Bama again.


Me too. The only hope of Alabama not getting into the CFP after losing to Georgia is Clemson, Notre Dame and Michigan all winning out...and I'm not even sure THAT scenario would be enough to overcome the very real Bama bias. Although, Alabama's very weak SOS this season may be the thing that finally bites them in the butt. Their schedule is pretty much a joke, with their playing only one good team.

I think It’s unfair bama has to play any games.

They’re already clearly the beat and any games they have to play are just opportunities for them to lose.

You know they won't lose to Georgia.

I do think they're not as unbeatable as people seem to think, LSU and Miss State proved that. You can put pressure on Tua and make him uncomfortable back their sacking his arse and all. State did a much better job of that than LSU, but LSU's D played him well too making him throw a lot of off target throws, it's just that LSU's offense couldn't do a thing against these people to relieve their D. They had opportunities to score a few times down in Bama's redzone and made terrible decisions down there. They score a couple of times that game is a lot different.

If it bounces FOR you in 2011, it should bounce AGAINST you in 2018.

I doubt if UGA loses they get the chance anyway but you can bet if Bama would have lost to LSU they would have been clamoring for a rematch and so would he.



Was he upset last year when AU had to play UGA 2x?

Exactly, if we beat them every pundit would be beating every drum for a rematch.


So, you watched the game like the rest of us. You saw that Bama is better than us. It wasn’t on that night. They are just better top to bottom, every day. We can all agree on that. So, when the point of the playoff is to have the best team win, why wouldn’t everyone be beating the drum to give them a rematch? They are obviously the better team. That’s what we should want as football fans....the best team to win.

I like the way Miss State played them and in their backyard too, they really went after Tua like I was expecting LSU to do.


That is probably because MS state has a better defense than we do. We have a good defense, mind you. But theirs is better. Just the breaks.

Miss State defense attacks people the way LSU's defense used to until they got these DC's with Aranda being the latest that prefer a lot of read and react stuff. Plus Caisson got hurt taking a lot of steam out of the pressure on opposing QB's, Aranda could blitz a lot more but he just doesn't believe in that.

That and they’re just more talented across the front. But Aranda’s defense is labeled as a gap attacking scheme. It is supposed to be the opposite of read and react.

Yes, they are more talented across the front, those boys will be NFL bound soon. But they called some blitz packages on Bama that really got after Tua's arse. I just wish Aranda were as aggressive.
