The Blueblood brand is Bama and always will be Bama.
Just think that the committee decided that Alabama with (2) losses would have been in the CFP instead of Tennessee. Even though the Vols beat Alabama. I know their QB is out for the year, and they got boat raced by Ga and SC. But they have (2) losses on the season too and beat Bama head to head.
I guess straight up beating a team does not matter anymore. Especially if that team is Alabama. They got their mulligan in the BCS era in 2011 against LSU and always will if the committee can slide them in. They will always get the benefit of the doubt. I mean LSU beat Bama and was destroyed in Tiger Stadium by Tennessee so the Vols should be ranked above Bama in Gump logic.

It’s like in 2014, the committee ranked tcu over Baylor despite both having 1 loss and tcu losing to Baylor h2h.
“good loss > a bad loss” seems to be more important than head to head

Computer got it right. The Bama team that “shouldn’t have been there” kept the #1 team crossing the 50.
