nor play in the SEC title game, but yet they went to title game and won. So big deal if tcu and baylor didn't play a conference title game. At least bama had a chance to play a conference championship game and failed to make it. Why punish tcu or baylor?

Because they play in the weakest power 5 conference, don't play a championship game, and played absolute garbage OOC games.

You mean Baylor?

In all fairness, do you really believe TCU+Baylor 2014 = Alabama LSU 2011? Don't know what world you live on if you think that.

I think you make a good point actually. The committee is in a tough spot for sure now.

This is not 2011. And people need to stop thinking and comparing how it used to be. The committee is independent and so is each weeks rankings. They have aid this over and over. They have said Conf champs will be a factor. Just because no one wants to listen is not their fault.

Because 21-0 started the decline and the committee doesn't want to see another program become a dumpster fire like LSU.

You do realize that we are no longer choosing based on the BCS right? Two totally different scenarios.

Dude, let it go my brother.

Alabama's won two SEC championships since 2011. Let it go, man.

It's useless trying to talk serious sports on this board anymore.

LSU lost two games in 2007 and still made the national title game. Why punish Mississippi St, Michigan State, etc for only having two losses?

Learn from past Mistakes....Bama should not have been in the BCS NC game in 2011/12; especially matched against a team that beat them in regular season...

Do you remember what had to happen for Bama to get in that game? No strange happenings yesterday. When you are a TCU or Baylor, you need to go undefeated to get in. They play Mountain West style football.

Easy. I don't think Alabama deserved to be in that title game then, and Baylor and TCU don't deserve it now.

Guess a couple of points to make here. 2014 is different from 2011 just like 2007 was different also. It depends on the current situation.
In 2011, although Alabama did not win a conference title, it truly was the 2nd best team in the country and deserved to be in the NC game.
If the LSU and Alabama teams of 2011 were playing this year, the 9-6 game occurred, etc. It would be difficult to keep both out of the playoff picture even with the Alabama loss to LSU in November of that year.
