Texas would beat Alabama by more this time around.

Alabama needed a miracle to beat thie shittiest Auburn team in 10 years.

Texas beat Alabama at home. 2019 LSU, 2015 Ole Miss, 2012 TAMU, 2011 LSU, and 2010 Auburn are the only teams to do it since Saban went 4-3 at home in his rebuild year in 2007.

2019 LSU and 2010 Auburn won national titles and had a Heisman winning QB. 2011 LSU won the SEC and lost the rematch v. Alabama in the BCSCG. 2012 TAMU had a Heisman winner at QB. 2015 Ole Miss is probably the biggest outlier without a title or Heisman but they were an exceptionally talented team in their own right.

So I think their win in September is worth something. Very few teams have done it since Saban got it rolling Tuscaloosa and all the teams who did it were exceptional.

Besides Alabama, they played a fair number of bowl eligible opponents in the Big-12. Their lone loss was against a strong team with another one of those COVID [year] boosted 5-year starter transfer QBs.

They play in a conference with 1/3 of the members who were G5 last year. Absolute joke.

The true test of the schedule should be you top 5 toughest games

I don't care how many top 50 7 win opponents a team beats, top top 15, maybe top 20 is all that matters

When you are an elite team, there is no difference between a 6-7 win team and a 3 win team in the grand scheme of things

It's not far off of the current SportSource (CFP Committee contracted analytic source) SoS data, with the exception of UM, tOSU, and Oregon.

Team: Sagarin - SportSource SoS
Texas: 2nd - 4th
Alabama: 15th - 23rd
Washington: 26th - 31st
Ohio State: 31st - 42nd
Oregon: 52nd - 69th
Michigan: 55th - 45th
Georgia: 56th - 65th
Florida State: 66th - 66th
