Probably, but that didn't happen.. With 4 spots for 5 P% conferences the only surprising thing is that this hasn't happened before. A precedent was going to be broken either way:

1. No undefeated P5 conference champion has been left out.
2. The SEC champion has never been left out.

The bottom line is that after watching FSU's offense in it's last 2 games, no one on the committee thought they had a chance to win it all, ala TCU last year.


No doubt, and it's a fair argument.

However, every team looks like shite at times and I don't know that I like the committee deciding on which injuries matter and don't matter.

You’re the first honest Bama fan I’ve met in my over 50 years of living on this planet.

Respect.

Hell the real question isnt about Bama being in its how the hell they left FSU out and left Washington in. Look at hteri SOS and their wins. They eeked out at least 7 games in the last several minutes against the likes of Arizona, Wazzu, Stanford, Oregon state. Hell the win at ASU, ASU literally gave them the W. Their only quality wins are oregon and oregon again. Thats the real problem. It shouldve been Michigan, UT, Bama and FSU/UGA as a toss up. Washington is the imposter in this situation.

I love it how they have every Gump at the University of Alabama giving cover to a corrupt institution on an LSU message board!

That's got to be the most insecure shite anyone has ever done!

I don't think most of us see this as an LSU board. We see it as a board where we can come talk SEC Sports.

I beg to differ.

No one can be more insufferable in any circumstance than us.

There's no grift. Alabama earned the spot.

You don't like Alabama. That's why you don't think they deserved to get in. Just admit it.


Deserved isn’t an either or thing. There has to be an element of “on paper” here. If conference championships and going undefeated don’t matter, UGA should be in and not Washington. They are better than Washington. They did not put Bama in because of their SOS. They did this because Travis was hurt. Had Travis not been hurt a one loss SEC champ isn’t getting in.

SOS is good for a tie breaker or something where it’s close but you had one team with a perfect season and one that didn’t.

It doesn’t help that this is a team that’s gotten 2 (maybe more?) mulligans before, losing the last one, so now we have to watch them lose against Texas again before we all laugh at the system.

I actually feel really bad for FSU. A lot of us actually do, and also know the system isn’t perfect. But I’m also gonna admit that I am happy as a Bama fan cause I’m not a friggin liar. What do you want us to say?

One question, is Saban going to Texas or not? Flight schedule? Ms Terry's real estate agent? Sorry, that's three.

Thanks in advance. Eggcited for your response.

We look in the mirror and see a Top 5 SOS staring back at us, and know that Auburn would have been FSU’s 5th highest ranked win.

You people are emotional retards.
