Does anyone remember the last time Bama and LSU played when both were in the top 3?

BAMA CAN'T LOSE

Wasn’t that the first time in CFB history that a team that didn’t win its division or conference still got to play for a NC? Serious question.

JJ was salty as frick after he threw that one to Mosley.

Nope

Who won the natty title in 1988? Where dat conference championship trophy at?

You mean that time bama got extra weeks off because you didn't even win your division and backed into the NC game?

This is why I think Bama fans are so insecure about their dynasty. Of the 20ish NCs they claim all of them are basically mythical. No other sport that I can think of has folks claiming and playing for a NC without winning their division/conference Or having to win multiple games against a slew of highly ranked teams( no road to the Final Four or College World Series). Just a lotta hot air and opinion. It’s sad.

You serious baw? This is one of, if not the greatest runs in CFB history given the parity and NCAA scholarship rules, etc.

How old are you? We claim 17 and of those 17 about 3-5 are questionable. Let's err on the high side and say it's 5. So let's say we just have 12 NCs then, deal?
Is that still more than your school? Unless your Army (which that doesn't count cause there were only 4 schools playing back then) or Notre Dame, kiss my dick.

Uhm, this happens all the time in sports. Wild Card teams win the World Series, Wild Card NFL teams win the Super Bowl. Non conference Champ teams win the NCAA tournament.

Then don't follow college football. It's the rules that are defined and yet when it benefits Bama, you don't want to play by the rules.
Know who else does that? My kids.

Go to bed, little one.

Even as an LSU fan, that gif still makes me laugh. Just an awful game.

Wild Card teams in the NFL and MLB don’t have to go on the road and play at least two highly ranked conference teams before they can play for the championship? Wow. Didn’t know that.

Had the teams ahead of Bama not lost, Bama wouldn't have made it in. We got lucky, no one is arguing against that.
Kinda like when LSU became the first 2 loss team to ever make it into the Championship game. If I recall correctly, you needed Missouri to lose late that year and they did so y'all squeeked in.

No one bitching about that, sometimes the cards fall your way and sometimes they don't but only 1 fanbase cries the frick over it ALL THE TIME damn near 8 years later.
