I'm hoping Syracuse does Miami. Vandy shocks rocky top and SC beats Clemson.

That's 3 top 12 losses which open the door for us to sneak in.

We need chaos

I hope not but they’re on a streak and had a game basically stolen from them. They lost a close one in T-Town. Nothing surprises me anymore. Roll Tide till I die, but I’m a pessimist.

Honestly, we should just be worried about beating Auburn.

Repeat this for the clowns saying they don't want us in at the back

Same dummies were saying they didn't want to play the SEC championship and hoped we had a loss so we can get a home bye game.

Yeah there's a fair amount of dipshit fans that don't want Alabama in because they're "disgusted" or whatever with the team. It's as though they don't know how a playoff works. frickin' dumdums.

The likelihood of Alabama getting in isn't great but it is in the ballpark. Maybe the parking lot, but in the ballpark nonetheless.

I hope we get in, but this team is going to need some serious mental preparation. Three mulligans would be sheer luck.

This team would end up pulling something like beating Ohio St in the first round then losing to Boise St the next game lmao.

We’re not beating Auburn, but I like your optimism…

Alabama just needs to beat Auburn and wait for some bullshite to happen, and the bullshite that needs to happen is not dauntingly impossible. Alabama getting in isn't all that likely but it's not a slim to none proposition either.

What the frick is Auburn supposed to be that Alabama can't beat them? Alabama's got problems for sure but it's not a garbage football team. Auburn though is a steamy, Walmart parking lot shite diaper.

People need to lose this notion that the Oklahoma loss somehow broke this team.

Amen.


It's a 12 team playoff. People need to forget about the criteria of a 4 team playoff. It's not the same. Acting like a 2 loss ACC, or big 10 team deserves a spot over us (IF we were to beat Auburn) after the schedule we played is kind of dumb.

IF we beat au, then let the polls shake out how they will. I wont argue either way.
Biggest thing is to beat a lousy au team that is better in places where we've proven to be weak.

I want us in if it’s possible. We would have a punchers chance with our talent. There’s a chance we just piece together some wins. I’m down. Let’s Beat Auburn and see what happens.

I love the name Pandy Fackler. You seem to say some decent things but then you have your whole game thread schtick which is confusing because after reading your comments I would assume that schtick would bore you. Anyway, RTR.

This team doesn’t deserve to go to the playoffs. They need some humble pie and citrus.

A team coming off a big win with confidence who has a coach that knows he can make his entire season by beating Alabama with a QB who played great against us last season. That’s what the frick I think Auburn is supposed to be.

I said I liked the optimism, I just don’t share it.

I’ll be cheering for Bama just like I always do if they somehow make the playoff. That said, I don’t think this team is really a playoff caliber team. They don’t play at a high-level consistently. They look downright bad at times, including against opponents that they shouldn’t look bad against. Penalties and mental errors are a problem. The coaches seem in over their heads sometimes. These things just don’t scream “playoff team” to me.

Now, I’ll give you this: When Alabama has a good game, they can look like one of the best teams in the country. When Milroe is on it, he’s on it. Again, though, this team can’t play that way consistently and when they aren’t playing really good they have a tendency to look pretty bad.
