Indulge me for a min.

Suppose LSU loses to Georgia and beats Bama. LSU then beats Georgia in the SEC CG.

LSU is in as a One loss SEC Champ. Bama is in because Bama. Are you really going to penalize UGA for going undefeated and losing a second game against a team they beat already?

Alabama gets left out in this scenario.

But Alabama will beat LSU by 24 so no worries.

I’ll believe that when I see it. Eye test and all.

Oh you’re probably right. But my scenario was chosen with those teams in specific places for that purpose.

Alabama
Clemson

In no specific order...

It would be a travesty to see Notre Dame get in and be dominated by either of the other 3.

Alabama could literally lose 2 games, not win the SEC West and not even compete in the SECCG...and STILL make it in the CFBPlayoff.

If they honestly put in the best 4 teams in the country, at least 3 would be SEC every year.

An Ohio State Fan said this.

Bama's resume entering the playoffs since the playoffs began

2014: 1-loss SEC Champ
2015: 1-loss SEC Champ
2016: undefeated SEC Champ
2017: 1-loss division co-champ

Now let's talk about 2017. Bama got in as a 4 seed, because UGA won the SEC title. As you may recall, they were NOT putting Bama in over a 2-loss SEC Champ Auburn had they won the SEC Title. You know who DID get in, as a division co-champ, over a 2-loss conference champ who beat them? 2016 Ohio State. And as the 3 seed no less!

Of course the main difference is Bama won 2 playoff games and the title instead of getting demolished 31-0 in the first round.

I’m on the anybody but fricking Alabama train, just like I have been since 2014.

I’ll be right one of these years.
