re: Predict the next year Bama does not make the playoffs?

Good luck with these predictions. The BCS was scrapped because of Bama- and now you see all the talk of taking it to 6 or even higher.

All this talk is to get someone - or - anyone to take Bama down. When Saban retires Bama will fall off to the point where they will still get in for quite a while with just an average coach - especially if it expands to 8.
