According to NCAA rules, the University of Alabama football team is on probation and therefore is required to receive 0 (zero) points from the USA Today Coaches poll, giving them a recalculated BCS average of 0.6656, thus moving them down to number 8 on the BCS final standings: See attached link

Why do some of you little war chickens take so much pride in Bama being on probation.

It's almost to point that it's unhealthy

Until they move the SEC offices you'll just have to learn to live with the Gumps not playing by the rules. I vote that the SEC office moves to Jacksonville, FL.

quote:

Under long-standing AFCA policy a school is inelgible for Coaches' Poll
consideration if it is under "major NCAA probation" that includes any
of the following penalties in a given season:

1. Live television ban
2. Postseason competition ban
3. Loss of 20 percent of total football scholarships

Alabama received none of these penalties from the NCAA as a result of
the investigation you referenced and is therefore eligible to receive
votes in the USA Today/AFCA Coaches' Poll this season.

Thank you for your interest in the AFCA.
