re: Alabama being number 2 is pretty ridiculous.

No, and I don’t think a sane person would say they aren’t a top 4 team and that will play out in the end but do wins and losses not matter anymore for these rankings. Multiple undefeated power 5 teams, a 1 loss tOSU whose only lost was to the #4 team. You have to admit, based on resume alone it doesn’t make much sense right now. But again it will work itself out, always does.
