2023 bama vs 2023 UT

UT won by 10 in Tuscaloosa

Nice talk


So in your mind one head to head game will trump everything else, when that everything else will be in Bama's favor?

Interesting that you took my plural claim of "better wins"
and made it singular in an attempt to backdoor a gotcha. Be better.

I'm showing Bama to win and Bama to make the playoffs at the same odds.
Nope

Bama to win is +184

Bama to make playoffs is +250

Also

Fsu to make playoffs is -190

Oregon to make playoffs is -350

UT will have the higher ranked win

UT will have no double digit losses

This is fiction. They'd have similar resumes.

The committee has consistently said when two teams are similar, head to head comes into play. This isn’t difficult

All I know if Texas and bama both win, that Sunday selection show is gonna have a bunch of eyeballs on it.



Bama would deserve to be there over Texas, but they'd put Texas in. Other than just a head to head victory they would just argue that Bama's win over UGA makes Texas' win over Bama that much better.

If Bama beats UGA I'd have still have UGA in but the committee isn't putting two SEC teams in this year.

That is one piece, again, why are you only talking about one piece of the puzzle? I didn't make claims based on only one factor, so why are you? These are mostly rhetorical questions


It's the only piece you've been willing to offer. You were smart enough to cede that they won't bump an undefeated Florida State. I asked for the next idea, and you ignored it.

If Bama bears number one UGA then Texas will NOT have a better run.

You choosing to not read the entirety of my posts doesn't make that so.

Thanks for reminding me why I don't bother with you much any more. Have fun with your two guy circle jerk.

Umm, yes they will. Unless you are saying UGA will stay ranked above bama

The most disappointing thing about this is that I don't think it will matter. Georgia will probably stomp the shite out of Bama.

But man, it would be fun to see reality set in for some of these people.

It’s called a tie breaker. And “every thing else” is not as overwhelming in Bama’s favor as Sec fans want to believe. Texas SOS is 20 vs 6 for Bama, that’s pretty comparable. The computer rankings as also split. If both are 12-1 and conference champs than, absolutely Texas should go over Alabama “because of one game”.

Feel free to be the first person on this site to successfully correct me.

I suspect you'll just duck that very pointed question in a weak arse attempt to save face, but let's see...

LOL. What happened the last time the Ducks scheduled a real OOC game? Hell you should have taken an L vs a team Texas just beat by 50 this year.

And Bama should have taken a loss to a team that lost to New Mexico St by 21 AND a team that lost to Fla Atlantic by 42
