Right, Bama seldom loses by more than a score...that's a fact and I am afraid what I posted is fully material in context as you are not "whipped" by 6 points.

The melting by the LSU fans is funny.

Many are actually quite clueless as to how good Alabama is - or can be.

Florida has no worries. If they keep winning, they'll be in the CFP; if they don't, they won't.

Michigan St got hosed.

We all know the reason behind both LSU and Bama receiving bumps in the polls -- it's to generate hype for the upcoming matchup. It's a no-loss situation for the committee and for CFB. You hype a matchup of top-5 opponents, if LSU wins they go to #1. If Bama wins they likely go to #2. Neither team would fall past 10 after a loss either way.

Bitching? I'm discussing the first cfp poll of the season. Why are Bama fans even in a thread about a worthless poll?

In theory, Bama being there is great for LSU. If they maintain consistency, we should still be in the top 4 with a loss.

I think ND and UF have an argument over Bama.

UT, UK, etc... to the wire. Then lost to the only really good team they've played. Their ranking is justified and honestly they should probably be closer to 15 with FSU.


Bama has a win over the 19th ranked team and a loss to the 18th team at home. All these people saying Bama gave the game away to Ole Miss are fricking morons. Swag had like 360 total yards and had 4 TDs. The only reason it even looked close is because the refs gave Bama that onside kick when there guy batted the ball forward.

UF has a win over Ole Miss.

My fault. Turnovers don't really reflect upon play on the field. Any other nuggets of wisdom a Bammer can teach more rudimentary fans?

Hard to choke down the fact that your teams superbowl win means nothing.

Right now, the rankings only get 1 of the final 4 right, Clemson.


Will it be right after a yearly loss to FSU this Saturday?

In case you're curious how they select teams:

quote:

1. Each committee member will create a list of the 30 teams he or she believes to be the best in the country, in no particular order. Teams listed by three or more members will remain under consideration. At the conclusion of any round, other teams can be added to the group of teams under consideration by a vote of three or more members.

2. Each member will list the best six teams, in no particular order. The six teams receiving the most votes will comprise the pool for the first ranking step. This is known as the “listing step.”

3. In the first ranking step, each member will rank those six teams, one through six, with one being the best. The best team in each member’s ranking will receive one point; second-best two points, etc. The members’ rankings will be added together and the three teams receiving the fewest points will become the top three seeds. The three teams that were not seeded will be held over for the next ranking step.

4. Each member will list the six best remaining teams, in no particular order. The three teams receiving the most votes will be added to the three teams held over to comprise the next ranking step.

5. Steps No. 3 and 4 will be repeated until 25 teams have been seeded. There will be seven rounds of voting; each round will consist of a “listing step” and a “ranking step.”
