re: If we won out in dominating fashion do you personally think we're worthy of a playoff spot

So before the Alabama game I bet your opinion was different. But because we had one bad loss to Alabama your opinion change and even if we have dominating games against Texas and Tennessee and Arkansas, that that's not enough for you? Because since we played bad against Alabama, obviously we're a terrible team.? That makes zero sense. Teams grow and get better. Teams have bad games. A bad game against Alabama tells you all you need to know but dominating games against Tennessee and Texas mean nothing? Ridiculous. Plus, there goes the we haven't won a game against a good team line also. This is a hypothetical question anyways.

I mean, not likely. I would have to objectively assess other 9-3 teams getting bypassed.

No, no, no, you misunderstand those of us being critical. He got outcoached IN ALL THREE LOSSES. Badly against Ole Miss and very badly against Bama.

So, if we get better players, is the coaching going to improve as well? Because it's going the other direction at this point.

(THAT'S what we're saying.)

No. Not unless everyone else loses. We haven’t beaten anyone and we’ve lost every big game in embarrassing fashion.

The purpose of the playoffs is to identify the best team in the country. It’s not a reward.

Do you think this is the best team in college football regardless of how the rest of the season goes?

If the answer is No, there’s no need for us to participate in the playoffs.

It honestly seems like everyone wants us to win out and sneak in.

I just can’t beleive the regular season is done in 3 weeks.

Just off of what this season has been and how we've performed on the field, do you think a 9-3 team that's biggest wins were to 2 top 10 teams at the tail end of the season?


It entirely depends on the other resumes, but 2 top 10 wins will be better than most resumes. With the 3 losses being considered “reasonable” comparatively speaking.

Side comment: it’s insane the amount of “fans” on here who do not want their own team in the playoffs

If we win the last 3, and I'm not saying we are, we'll most likely be in the playoffs. Wait and see.

Depends on how the rest of the season plays out with the other top teams. Its not as simple as win and you're in. We do need some help with the other top teams to keep losing. Similar to '07.

Yes, I do. Especially since you said in dominating fashion. You would have beaten two top 10 teams at the end of the season. That means more to me given it’s not top 10 teams early on. They are top teams that survived a whole season being ranked that highly. Who else would even have that at this point?

It also matters what others have done. Sorry, but it does.

Even if everybody else is the same if not worse? Sorry, but why should others deserve it if they have 3 or more losses as well? It matters how it all shakes out.

We still have a chance to slide in there.

Yes. Clearly. That's a brutal schedule that's tougher than every other team except other sec teams and Michigan, Ohio st, NW, a few big 10 schools had tough schedules.

We simply would have lost to too many other contenders. Ole Miss, and Kentucky and maybe Alabama (if Auburn pulls a miracle) could all be at 3 losses. We’d need some radical hell to break loose the next three weeks to be even considered.
