The fact they even had to play in a conference title after beating the entire league is ridiculous.

Bama would have slept walked to a Big 12 championship.

Anybody who wanted Bama in the CFP this year hates college football
You have to play the games on the field
Otherwise give the playoff spots to the best recruiting teams
Such stupid conversations that have been happening for weeks and for some reason are still happening. This year's CFP was easy there is no controversy

TCU’s resume was not strong enough to say they undoubtedly deserved to be in as a team who didn’t win their conference.

Now do Alabama's
You're in your own echo chamber

I think it’s debatable, and personally I thought Bama’s resume was more impressive.

And Alabama Couldn't even win their own division. Basically, they were 4th in the SEC. Georgia Undefeated, Bama, LSU, and Tenn. all tied at 6-2 but BAMA's lost to both LSU and Tenn.
TCU(12-1) - SOR #3, FPI #10, SOS #25, Best Win #9, 2nd Best Win #20
Alabama(10-2) - SOR #5, FPI #2, SOS #9, Best Win #20, 2nd Best Win #22
Tennessee(10-2) - SOR #6, FPI #5, SOS #8, Best Win #5, 2nd Best Win #17
Of these three teams, Alabama deserves to be in the CFP the least.
Strength of Resume favors TCU, Strength of Schedule Tennessee.
Bama's best win is #20 Texas (by 1 point with Texas' starting QB out for basically 3/4s of the game), who is TCU's second-best win (by 7 with Texas's starting QB playing the entire game).

TCU would have been lucky to win 9 games against Bama’s schedule.
How did this answer the question “who did BAMA beat?”

Try again…
Who is their signature win? Just answer the question. Your melt has been amazing the last couple of days.

There were only three teams in the SEC with losing records.
Guess who played all three?

LMAO why can't OP answer the simple question.
Who did Bama beat this year?

That's fine, but you have nothing to actually back up this reasoning. The only thing you can say is "well they are Bama so of course they would have dominated" which you don't actually know to be true.

The teams records are worse because they all play each other + 3 OOC games.
SEC plays 8 conference games and 4 OOC games.
If all the SEC teams had to play Georgia and played one less OOC scrub team, they’d have worse records.

And please don’t act like a Big 12 schedule + Colorado is impressive.

The team that has the third best odds to win the CFP, Ohio State, is 5 times more likely to win it than TCU and TCU doesn’t even have to play UGA in the first round.
What a joke.
What a joke.

The joke here is you’re still melting down and won’t answer the question and completely avoid it.
You keep harping on odds from Vegas as well. Alabama were favorites against Tennessee and LSU too. Alabama was 3-5-1 vs the spread in 2022
