And Alabama lost on their own turf. They had their best shot at LSU and couldn't come through. Funny how ESPN leaves that out, huh?



So, what you're saying is that a loss to LSU (at home, ZOMG!) is as bad as a loss to Iowa State. Just trying to clarify here.

I have to say I don't ever remember a season where a "better loss " meant more than better wins.


+1 EXACTLY

This, along with Ok State's better wins (if they beat OK), could resonate with voters and jump OSU over Alabama.

If Auburn loses a bowl game, it is possible that bama would have ONE win over a top 25 team - Overrated arkansas.

Doesn't sound like the second best team in FBS.

So you're saying beating twice as many teams with winning records and over twice as many top 20 teams doesn't matter?

Bama "earned" their spot in the title game to play LSU because they lost to LSU?

The Bama argument is totally devoid of logic.
