No mention of conference. And to go undefeated in the SEC, you gotta when the SEC championship. I can't believe I'm even debating this.

From your own link


quote:

Regular season Main articles: 2008 Alabama Crimson Tide football team and 2008 Florida Gators football team Alabama entered Nick Saban's second year as head coach with an AP preseason ranking of 24. After finishing the 2007 season 7–6, including a win in the Independence Bowl, the Crimson Tide brought in one of the nation's top recruiting classes and was expected to improve in 2008. The team started off strong in the Chick-fil-A College Kickoff with a convincing 34-10 win over #9 Clemson. Four weeks later they shocked the nation by defeating #3 Georgia 41–30 in Athens after building a 31–0 halftime lead. The rest of the season included a 27–21 overtime victory over #16 LSU in Nick Saban's first game in Baton Rouge against his old team, as well as a 36–0 shutout of Auburn to end Alabama's 6-game losing streak to their in-state rival. The Crimson Tide finished the regular season with a 12–0 record and a #1 ranking in the BCS, AP, and Coaches' Polls. Only two years removed from a national championship, Florida entered the season with high hopes and an AP preseason ranking of 5. The Gators went 9–4 in 2007, and they had many key players returning, including Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow. After a 3-0 start, the team suffered a devastating home loss to Ole Miss. However, this loss was later seen as a turning point for Florida. In their last 8 games, the Gators scored no less than 38 points and had an average margin of victory of 39.6. Key victories included #4 LSU (51–21), #6 Georgia (49–10), #25 South Carolina (56–6), and #20 Florida State (45–15). Florida finished the regular season with an 11–1 record and a #2 ranking in the AP Poll.


Your own link shows that the SEC Championship is not part of the regular season.

No, it's considered the post season. A regular season game would be any game that is scheduled well in advance, and known to be played. Title games and bowls are postseason.

No, those are reserved for UT.

However, I bet you feel pretty good about this gem.

So let me get this straight...

okietiger and PistolaVeloce believe that the SECCG is a part of the regular season and are calling people dumbasses that believe that the SECCG is a part of the post season?

I love irony.

The best part was that okietiger gave a link that completely refuted his position.

This makes as much as sense as some of our fans saying we didn't lose in regulation in '07.

And yet some of your boys continue with the Utah comments? That was last year, right?

That's certainly the definition of ironic.

Wouldn't this thread, yet another started by an LSU fan hoping for an Alabama loss, be begging for a 'moral championship?' I mean its just another LSU fan hoping somebody else will beat Alabama because they can't do it themselves.

Don't confuse them further. They're already lost in this debate.

I can't believe you guys arguing about regular season record versus end of season record! Who gives a @#$%! What you put in you trophy case at the end of the season is what counts!

Confused? I think it is more an issue of the Gumps being confused:

It's hard to go undefeated in the SEC!
quote:

UA did it last year.

quote:

Funny, but I thought that Florida was an SEC team.


As most reasonable people would be capable of comprehending, there was no mention of regular season vs. championship game, only that it was hard to go undefeated in the SEC. Something that Bama DID NOT do last year regardless of when, where or why the game against Florida was played. It was a loss and therefore Bama was not undefeated last year in the SEC.

No wonder the Gumps claim so many Mythical National Championships.
