Index=bullshite. Translation - This FPBullshit says Bama has a 68% chance to win. It is just some guy making up numbers but they call it "science" or an "algorithm" so they look legit and smart. One is low, one is high, one is in the middle so they always have a "scientific statistic" to use to get the emotion they want out of you to click on their BS. I click on the same BS until I'm halfway through and realize it. Look at Stephen Hawking, dude is totally brain dead and people think he is smartest man in the world.

I would put the game much closer. Not because Washington matches up against Alabama, but because chris peterson has 1 month to prepair. Chris Peterson has proven he can get the most out of his players and the man can call plays that work.

That being said Saban can do the same.

They believe Bama is #1, but may have trouble with some of the more accomplished offenses in the playoffs. There are some very good QB's that will be playing. Bama's D can be beat or at the very least given fits by a good passing offense.


And they forgot Nick Saban is the best defensive mind in football.

Because obviously The Bear left behind a broken wreckage of bastard sons and daughters that didn't get shite in the will and they are expressing their outrage now by God!

Alabama will block a punt/FG and somewhere their defense will score a touchdown. Also this: They won't run the ball on that bama defense which makes them one dementional. This is Saban's modus operandi. He lives off this stuff. Good luck Washington, you gonna need it.

That is why they will lose. Bama is going to destroy them, no doubt.

But dammit, I still want to hate all over the sister-fricking gumps! Perhaps my moment will come after the Buckeyes walk all over Clempson and we get to face Bammer in the final?

IMO, they are definitely better than a 67% chance but probably worse than a 69% chance

You know, they say all teams are created equal, but you look at Bama and you look at Washington, and you can see that statement is not true! See, normally if you go one-on-one with another team, you got a 50-50 chance of winnin’.

But Bama is a genetic freak, and they're not normal, so you got a 25% at best at beatin’ them! And then you add the refs to the mix? Your chances of winnin’ drastically go down. See the semi final, at the Peach Bowl, you got a 33 1/3 chance of winnin’. But Bama, they have a 66 2/3 chance of winning, cause the refs KNOW they can’t beat Bama, and they're not even gonna try!

So, Washington, you take your 33 1/3 chance, minus Bama's 25 percent chance, and you got an 8 1/3 chance of winnin’ at the Peach Bowl! But then you take Bama's 75 perchance chance at winnin’, if we was to go one-on-one, and to add 66 2/3 percents, Bama has a 141 2/3 chance of winnin' at the Peach Bowl! See, UDub; the numbers don’t like, and they spell disaster for you at the Peach Bowl!

Washington gets no sympy from me at all!

In all seriousness, Washington has a good chance. UF showed that Bama's secondary is still average at best so if Browning gets hot, watch out. Plus, Hurts struggles against good defenses.

Hillary was given like a 68% chance of winning by stats people. When Trump won everyone wouldn't shut up about how wrong they were

Upsets happen. 32% is very low

I suppose that there may be a 25% chance that the entire bama team catches the flu. that's the only reason I can figure.
