Honestly, I think Alabama is a better team than Texas right now. I dont think that trumps the head to head though.
If the committee were to pick Bama over Texas, it would make the regular season meaningless.

They can always fall back on a worse loss or the blind resume test…

12-1 conference champ with a loss to #7 who is also a conference champ or…

12-1 conference champ with a loss to #12 who has two other losses on their resume???

In that scenario Bama gets in not to mention the eye test and when the losses happened. Head to head only plays so much.

Yep. And with the expanded playoffs and shrinking number of power conferences, college football should be stressing out of conference games against power conference and de-stressing conference championships. The Big10, Big12 and ACC championships are just kind of silly this year. GA, AL, TX, MI and FSU had just scheduled another fun out of conference game or another conference game.

Early next season, Texas is scheduled to go to Michigan. If Texas wins on Saturday, and gets passed over by Bama, we need to cancel that Michigan game and schedule a scrub. The CFP committee will have proven that early season OOC games are meaningless.

I agree 100%. At the end of the day Bama lost at home to Texas. I think Bama beats Texas today but that does not matter.

Texas won AT Bama when it counted. Can't win at home you can't complain if left out.
