re: Bama beat themselves!

Bama fans,
It was a bad loss. For those of us old enough, we are having visions of Mike Shula, Mike Dubose, Francione. The great times are over. The schools with rich booster and large collectives will own college ball.

It was a great run. Not sure I’ll live long enough to see another.

Congratulations Georgia on a good win and complete arse whipping. You were due that.

Hope you win the Natty.

Deboer should just go ahead and take the Penn State job. Leave the turds scrambling for a coach and watch all their players hit the portal. Very poetic justice


I wish he would. He is gone in a few years and hopefully Sexton will advise him to go. He is not what Alabama needs to compete. A team takes on its coaches temperament. DeBoer is soft and wins because he has unbelievably good talent at Bama. A few more years of this shite and will be lucky to get the number 15 class year end year out. We will become Auburn.
Ahhhhh. The horns are coming out of the closet. Smelling blood are you?

No, if we lose I don’t want too. We won enough over the years to know a good team from an imposter.

This team is not good by prior Bama standards.

Bunch of West Coast and Conference USA coaching going on.

:violin:
Dogs playing inspired ball. Bama playing to the intensity of their coaches. Bunch of fricking losers. Fire them all. Looks like a Mike DeBose team.
That was just frickin pathetic. Never I mean never have I seen a bama defense get pushed like that.
I was at ‘92 1st SEC game with Florida. Awesome game. That’s the Florida I don’t want coming back. Tough team :cheers:

Bama and Georgia getting in no matter the score.
Now, if OSU should beat Indiana by 50 and drop Indiana out, and Georgia should beat Bama by 50, then 3 spots open right? So, Texas, Miami and ND could get in.
If Bama can somehow figure out Georgia today, I don’t want to see Tech. That was first time watching this year. Their damn good.
They looked really good. I’d say SEC Ready

Today’s Games

Big 12 game- these teams just look slow. Don’t see SEC size and speed. I don’t think either one deserves in the playoff.

But, both will get in and get boat raced by an Georgia, Bama, Ole Miss or A&M
Well, obviously the populated states for obvious reason. Question is where are biggest and strongest and fastest players?

The South.
1.texas
2. Florida
3. Georgia
4. Louisiana
5. Alabama
6. Mississippi
7. South Carolina
8. Tennessee
9. Oklahoma
10. Arkansas

Losing the few remaining valuable programs to the B1G and Fox because there are still too many years left on a tv deal would be extremely shortsighted on Disney’s part.


As a fan, why are you concerned how much money Disney or any of the networks make? As a fan, I want competitive games but only if other leagues schedule likewise. I could care less as a fan where the Big10 goes.

It won’t affect my watching the Tide play.
Good grief. Hope not true. We added two blue bloods and next year we’re going to 9 conf and mandatory power 4 out of conference.

Geez Louise! How much tougher do you want to make this conference?

We’re fine at 16.

re: 16 Team Playoff, with no CCG

Another try.

16 team playoff
Still have conf championships
Winner of Acc, big10, big 12, SEC get first rd bye

5 plays 16. Winner plays winner 10/11
6 plays 15. Winner plays winner 9/12
7 plays 14. Winner plays winner 8/13
8 plays 13
9 plays 12
10 plays 11

2nd rd

Top 4 winners are ranked after conf. Championship weekend.
No. 1 gets bye
Conf 2 plays winner of 8/13
Conf 3 plays winner 9/12
Conf 4 plays winner 10/11. These would be New Year’s Day

Semis 10 days later
Overall 1 plays winner of conf 4 and 10/11
conf 2 and 8/13 play winner of conf 3 and 9/12

Natty

Now, if you can understand then you realize this is the best solution

So, when an SEC team agrees to a series with another non SEC team, does anyone know how that tv money is allocated?

Texas playing OSU drew an enormous audience and made ESPN/ ABC tons of money.

If Texas cancels futures ooc games like this, how would that impact what Disney pays out per team for the whole year.?

Then cut those 16 in half, that gives you 8 which is the answer


If it gets me free tickets etc I’m onboard with 8 :cheers:

The answer

Posted by bamaoldtimer on 12/3/25 at 9:58 am
1. 16 teams
2. Acc, B10, B12 ,SEC champs and runner up’s take spots 1-8
3. Spots 9-16 at large determined by points system
4. Each win given points based on quality of win.

Example: top 25 wins graded. Reverse polls. So if you beat No.1 OSU, you’d get 25 pts. Texas beating A&M would have received 22 pts.

Add total pts up and seed 9-16 accordingly.

What this promotes:
1. In incentivizes playing high quality opponents cause if you win, you get credit. If you lose, you get 0 points.
2. Let the old BCS computer algorithm seed teams each week
3. We get better games and takes the human, political factor out.

I’d like an NFL style Playoff but reality says impossible under current college structure.

Thoughts?

If adopted, I spent a lot of time developing this idea, 20 minutes, and for that, want free semi and Natty tickets, 50 yd line, airfare (First class), Hotel and VIP package.

That’s all
Penn St Blueblood? lol Alabama put them on the Map and they had a nice run but that’s all it was.

They are a mediocre program with awesome fans and deserve better but they are not even close to being a Blue Blood.
