I don't disagree with them actually. But, the committee put us in.

The players took a vote and it looks like they're going to go to Norman on Dec 19 and play their best come what may.

He was probably as disappointed as we were with their play last night.

Maybe because he has an opinion ? I don’t know, either, if Alabama deserves it, but that’s what elite brand will do for you

Love Mark. His suit was cutting off his circulation last night.

Because they were parts of truly championship caliber teams. Bama now is just another welfare team clinging to relevance because they let a bunch of teams in now. Oh sure, they'll hang out where they are at, getting in some years and others just missing, but they are basically Tennessee at this point. Fun to watch though.

Actually, this speaks well for Bama and shows some variety of thought and opinion instead of blind homer-ism.

I commend them for giving their opinion, but don’t know if I can go that far to pull against my team

We're used to being one of the top 4 teams. All those guys had a lot higher bar to get what they earned.

They are being honest.

However, Bama could NOT be penalized for the SECCG.
The way things are set up, conf CG can only help, not hurt.

Because he played in the BCS era when the argument was you were a contender for the national championship.

If you had asked him if Alabama was a top10 team, his answer likely would have been yes.

Players and fans compare them against previous Alabama teams and they do not come close to meeting the bar. The problem is no team is as good as the best teams from 2000 until 2022. The transfer portal changed that.

Because they suck. 3 losses should disqualify a team period. BYU isn’t in and they lost their Conference championship game.

Some of the older guys felt disrespected because some of the younger guys wouldn't kiss their rings.

Ingram played bad cop so well, he had CUM advocating for BAMA.

Well done, sir. REC check is in the mail.
