So, since Alabama sucks, where would you rank them?

Sagarin has Alabama at #1, but they're wrong, because Alabama sucks, hasn't played anyone, etc.
ESPN's power metrics, whatever the heck that is, also has Alabama at #1, but they're Alabama homers, so you can ignore that.
The Las Vegas sports books put Alabama at #1, but that's just a bunch of gamblers who overvalue Alabama.
The Coaches' Poll has Alabama at #3, but everybody knows the Coaches Poll sucks and is just over-valuing Alabama because of the name.
The AP Poll has Alabama at #4, but that's just media favoritism.
The official College Football Playoff committee has Alabama at #5, but that's just 12 people's opinions.
Since we know Alabama really sux clearly every single above poll/metric/system above drastically over-rates them.
So, with that having been said, where would you rank Alabama presently? Top 10? Top 15? Top 20? Top 25? Unranked.

Bama has played 2 good teams. They lost one, and got dominated but won the other....I don't think Bama is a championship team...offense sucks, and D is pretty good....special teams not so good.

The nice thing is, you have two games to prove them wrong.

#3 based on "rankings" behind MSU and FSU.
I would have them Pick or chalk on neutral field vs any team in the country..even though they are Saban's 7th best Tide squad in his 8 years as Bama HC..think the 2010 3 Loss Tide would humiliate them.
Even if they win by a TD or far more the rest of the way, and knock off an unbeaten FSU, and/or 1 L Oreg/TCU/etc..
Will not change my mind, that they are a very talented, very green at certain positions/units,etc..
None of the other three Saban Tide title squads would've let 2014 Old Myth, Ark, or LSU teams within 13 to 17 minimum.
It's a year of parity..take it down. Demoralizing that Saban's worst squad sans his 2007 inherited 7-6 ULM loss lot, stands to make CNS bat .500 on Nattys in 8 Bama seasons.
Used to pull for all SEC teams to win BCS title, but starting with last year, I have 'Bama Fatigue'..was as elated as an Aubie fan with 'Kick-Six'

Probably behind Ole Miss and a point ahead of Arkansas.
