or perhaps like Alabama last year, after getting in over a more deserving FSU team

One was a massive blowout, one was a loss in overtime. Yeah, those are the same.

No because beating Clemson garners nothing this year. Clemson only gets in because the committee created a path for teams as automatic qualifiers.

I take perverse joy in BAMA citing facing Tennessee as a part of their argument.

I don't see how a team that can't win its conference can claim they are the best team in nation. There is always an asterisk next to national title winners who lost their conference.

getting to play for national title after losing your conference is a mulligan.

Texas could end up being national champion if they play UGA in a title game for the 3rd time and beat them.

If they knew Bama was out, why wouldn't they want all the money on them??

I didn’t say anything about anyone being undeserving. TCU was deserving in 2022, and they got blown out. If the committee decides that SMU is deserving today, I think we will see SMU get blown out at some point in this playoff.

I cannot see how a team that is ranked 17th should be competing for a title either. But it is what it is.

Bama needed SMU’s qb to be hit by a train after the game last night. Just not in the cards for the Tide this year…

It was hanging by a thread after the loss to Vandy and fell out of the deck at OU. It is what it is.
