There’s always an excuse. Imagine someone trying to argue a team Bama beat is playing better now what Bama fans would say


I am NO Bama fan...I can assure.

But if you look at their resume.

Would you take Texas to beat Alabama tomorrow?

No you wouldn't...because they will beat Georgia tomorrow. If they do...they are Top 4.

Plus...Texas ain't winning tomorrow.

You know what I see on Bama’s resume? 34-24

Are they playing tomorrow? Seems like you are just proving my point about Bama. When they win it’s proof they are better when they lose an excuse.

Gun to your head means coercion. coerced confession are tossed out for a reason. If FSU is undefeated Im picking them in the playoff over any 1 loss team. I don’t care about their conference they scheduled 2 SEC teams OOC to make up for it, they should not be punished because some entitled brat fans base’s team lost and wants another mulligan

The committee has never

-left out an undefeated P5 conference champ for a 1 loss conference champ
-left out a conference champ that beat another conference champ when they are both 1 loss conference champs
-left out the sec champ

The question is which is the most likely to happen?

If Michigan, FSU, Texas, Alabama all win today then the SEC is getting shut out of the playoffs.

I personally think FSU is going to get wrecked in the semifinals if they make it, but I don’t think the committee will leave them out if they win today.

Jon Ham is going to be along to tell you that head to head is a meaningless data point.

Alabama now kicks the shite out of September Alabama and Bama had the better wins and...better loss. If Alabama wins tomorrow the deserve it. I can't wait for the 12 team playoff. Let the 3 loss teams argue who should get in.


Do they? Alabama needed a massive Auburn choke job to win last week. Auburn is terrible.

Oregon's loss last night pretty well solidifies the playoff picture-

1. Michigan
2. Washington
3. FSU
4. Winner of Georgia/Alabama

Texas is out, bro.

Last night’s winner was in regardless all it did was end the whining about why Oregon was ahead. If FSU loses Texas and who ever wins the SECCG is in. The discussion was always going to be if FSU Texas and Bama all win

You really think FSU could lose to LOUISVILLE?

Well it's more likely than either Michigan or Texas losing, but I won't bet the farm on it. These conference championship games are where the cream rises to the top; that's why I believe FSU, Texas, Michigan and yes, Bama come through in a BIG way today.

FSU is down to a 3rd string true freshman QB in a rainy game against a team that’s strengths are running and stopping the run.

FSU is only -1.5

Those same people and Vegas also would have picked Oregon last nigh. Those same people would have picked bama over Texas in September

That is why your reasoning is such shite. What people think is shite

Nothing you say ever makes any sense

Everyone “thought” Oregon was better. Washington won again

Everyone “thought” bama was better than Texas. Texas won by 10

What people think doesn’t matter. What actually HAPPENS on the field is what matters
