For a matchup in the vein of Tennessee and Alabama it is. I suppose you're right in rooting for Mississippi State to beat Florida.

I get it, but it says to root for alabama.... I know that it says that because we play them, but if they beat Tennessee, I don't think we have a shot at the west. The only teams that can challenge bama after ut is auburn and lsu. Even if we beat Bama, Idk if we can win out in the SEC. That means that Bama has to lose at least 2 SEC games inorder for us to go to atlanta. I think Tenn is our best bet for a possible upset. Then we hope we can do something on the road in Tuscaloosa.


i will be rooting for tenn this weekend. i am just looking to win the west right now. and that gives us the best chance.

if they are talking about getting to the national championship then we have to win out regardless. bama having 1 loss wont change the fact that we would be SEC Champs.

usually it wouldn't matter when you play both teams but in this case, florida is ranked ahead of us in which it's ok to cheer for them to lose.

If Bama beats Tennessee and Auburn, we have absolutely no margin for error.

Sorry, but I'd have to be pulling for the fighting peteys in this one.

Notre Dame vs Bama may be the only matchup where i would pull for bama...and even then it would be a tough choice

i know. but if people are worried about making the national championship, bama winning or losing still doesn't matter.

i would rather bama lose in case we drop another one.
