They haven't played anyone. Bama is the best team in the conference and maybe the nation, but they've beaten the following teams.
FSU(looks bad)
Fresno State
Colorado State
Vanderbilt
Ole Miss(obvious)
You combine that with a struggling SEC where LSU, Tennessee, Arkansas, and Florida and others are not playing well, that's what you get. As soon as I say that UGA will lay and egg against Vandy.

#3 when we played them...they are bad because we broke their team.

I agree with your overall point - there is not much legitimate evidence to demonstrate that Bama is as dominant as they are looking. So far, Bama hasn't faced a team that can match up with the OL and DL - that was Florida State's weakest link. But to say FSU looks weak is so disingenuous without at least acknowledging that they played almost the entire game against Bama with their star QB, and they are a different team without him. It's particularly relevant, not only because you take out their most potent offensive weapon, but also because his mobility and elusiveness helped cover up the glaring inadequacy of their OL. By the way, the write up in the ESPN power rankings did the same thing, and I bristled. The biggest sports media experts in the world, and they write that as if they go shopping every Saturday and check the box scores before they write their "analysis".

Well it's not like Georgia has played anyone. It isn't that Bama is winning it's the way they're winning. Not making assignment mistakes or bad reads has nothing to do with the competition.
