How did Alabama choke ? I know they were ranked #1,but that was a product of 70 years of how polls are conducted. Their opponent was favored and also a game away from playing for the title. 6-6 to 12-0 in one season is not choking--I don't care what team,what level ,what sport.

Tennessee in 2001 ,case closed. Worst team in title game was Arkansas in either '95 or '02 and worst performance was Florida in 1999.

I-59: being 12-0 and getting smacked is a choke, and the previous year has nothing to do with this year.
