If Alabama had two losses they’d still be the better team, would you still be calling for them to be in the playoffs?

Georgia is the better team, should they be in the playoffs?

Oregon is the better team, should they be in the playoffs?

Not how it works. Bama is the better team. Therefore, they’re in the playoffs. Enjoy watching!


So when Bama wins ugly, especially against bad teams with all their starters, it’s “they won though.” But, when FSU wins out despite missing key players, it’s “they’re not as good as they were with ___.” What a crock of shite. If you don’t see the fallacy in that argument you’re an idiot.

And everyone bringing up Liberty…the discussion is about an undefeated Top 5 POWER 5 champion being left out. Not a Group of 5 champion who never sniffed the Top 20.

Not Bama's fault that the ACC wasn't that strong this year.


FSUs SOS or the ACC's strength/weakness has nothing to do with why they were left out. They were left out for one reason and one reason only and it is bc their QB is injured.

What has never made sense is the committee claiming that FSU is playing like shite without Travis while ignoring that Bama is playing like shite (Auburn game) with all of their players

Bottom line is for all other teams it is if they deserve to be in. For Bama it is the who is best team argument. Judged by different standards and have for the last 10-15 years

Well then FSU essentially lost to a horrible Boston College team.

It is to some LSU fans when that 12-1 team is Bama and the 13-0 team is anybody else.

And as far as the buckeye dude you replied to, he's absolutely ridiculous about just about everything he post.

Most teams have a win like that over a “lesser” team. Just remember if Alabama wins it’s all fricking Auburn’s fault.

Same thing applies to FSU's win over Clemson. Needed a miracle.

We saved y’all from a boring playoff. No need to make up silly reasons why Alabama got in.

Displaced is an interesting guy.

He seems like an intelligent semi a-hole who gets a kick out of confusing people with troll posts here and there

Like a missed 29 yard FG attempt at the end of regulation by the clemson kicker, his only miss all season inside of 40 yards.

Look at all these excuses. If we beat Washington Id like to bet that we will be at bama or Michigan. Especially Michigan. They are a bad matchup with Texas. Michigan runs the ball, and Texas stops the run better than anyone in the country. It will be the same song and dance for bama too. Milroes gonna get spied by one of the best freshmen linebackers in the nation and he's not gonna have time to throw the ball deep. Bama gets beat. So save all these excuses.

Switch the name on the jerseys and bama would still get in with fsu’s resume. Everybody knows that’s the truth.
