If the playoffs existed back in2006, then Michigan would have made it in spite of giving up a lot to osu.

I hate the more talented argument.. with all that talent they should win all their games.

An undefeated P5 champ IS NOT being left out, GUARANTEED!

And if the B10, PAC, ACC,& B12 champs are gonna all have 1 loss or less... LSU you better win the SEC as well cause you ain’t going either if you don’t!

True. If I were an LSU fan, I'd start bitching about Ohio State.
They have a defense to back up their offense


EXACTLY, and since we are not that answers your question. Not scared of ANYONE this year. Just love to see Gumps squirm trying to validate themselves.

We put the bait out and you boys flock to it like chum.

I think the better way to frame it is "Scored 40 at home and lost".

That does highlight the lack of a secondary. I know Diggs and Surtain give it their all and the bama fans are proud of their "grit". Wait they may have said GRIP on Chases jersey!

Well, there you go. Perfect analogy.

NY6 Bowl is the perfect place for 11-1 Bama, along with 11-2 UGA. One plays Baylor/Oklahoma, the other gets, I dunno, Cincy or App State?

Alabama vs Baylor in the Sugar, Georgia vs Wake Forest in the Orange.

Well I remember a team giving up 50 at home in a November loss. They still finished top 2 and would've made the CFP had it existed at the time.

Should a team that gave up 38 to vandy be allowed in the playoffs?

Your point?

To be fair we gave up 41. We can’t have Alabama “suck” and “be good” at the same time. Deserving or not Alabama is probably 1 of 3 other teams in the country that can beat us.

The better Bama is the bigger our win is. I’m not scared to play them twice. If it was the other way around you think Alabama fans would be as worried as some of our fans are about playing us twice. We gotta start thinking like champions, not like some whipping boy that got lucky.

Clemson gave up 43 points at home to Pitt the year they beat Bama in the NC with Watson.

If A1abama can do it, Okla can too.
