OSU, especially since they had beaten 3 teams in the Top 12.

I can't believe I'm sticking up for Alabama but its late Friday,I'm ready to go and you're crazy.

Alabama smacked #2 Florida State to start the season. Its not their fault Fla State folded like a cheap tent.LSU was pretty good and they never let us in the game--LSU beat Auburn that year.

The committee also has a memory and while not something they publicized amidst much howling they voted in Ohio State over Penn State the previous season and Clemson ran them out of town, 31-0.

You can hate Alabama until the cows come home. But if you're being honest with yourself I don't see how you could have picked Ohio State over Alabama. Alabama then proceeded to wear out a solid Clemson team. Then came back and won the thing vs Georgia.Had Clemson beaten Alabama 24-6 the Ohio State thing would have had more legitimacy just like Penn State's claim the prior season.
