Could someone put Saban’s head on Blofeld?

FSU played the 55th toughest schedule in the country.

They played one possession games against Boston College, Clemson, and Miami, and were trailing 13-0 to North Alabama - with their starting QB. Then they needed a 4th quarter comeback to beat 5-7 Florida and snuck by Louisville a week later.

Oh, and they had the benefit of playing against FIVE (5) backup quarterbacks. “Championship caliber defense” my arse.

They didn’t deserve shite.

Fortunately for you, this is one of the worst Bama teams under Saban and will probably lose to Michigan

What does that have to do with the price of Bulgarian stomach pumps? Bama and Texas also have a loss to teams that like, and FSU don't.

You didn’t address anything I said. I’ll bullet point it for you:

- FSU’s SOS was 55th in the country
- Their best win would have been UA & UGA’s 3rd best win
- Their opponents combined W/L was a losing record
- They had the benefit of playing against multiple backup QBs
- They had the 55th ranked strength of schedule
- Their SOS was 55th
- They played such bad teams that their strength of schedule was 55th.
- Bama played 5 Top 25 teams.
- Bama beat 3 Top 15 teams
- Bama beat 3 Top 25 teams by 14+ points
- Bama had the 5th best strength of schedule, having played and beaten more Top 25 opponents than any other playoff contender.

FSU didn’t deserve shite.

There may have been others but so far, you're the first Georgia fan I've seen menses all over the board with this shite.

Had the committee really wanted to get it right. It would've ended like this.

This has way more to do with rival fans being pissed that Bama is playing for another natty than it is being upset for FSU. Just admit it.

Ole Miss would be undefeated with Liberty's schedule or FSU schedule, that doesn't make them a playoff team.

The best team they beat is the 5th ranked SEC team with a historically bad defense and a Louisville team that got beat by a Kentucky team that is 3-5 in the SEC east.

There are probably 15 different team that would be undefeated with that schedule if that was their "hardest" games.

Their "best win" lost to Ole miss who UGA beat by 5 TDs.

That's not good enough.

It’s too bad the committee spent all year emphasizing a week 2 head to head loss. Alabama should have been 5th at worst heading into the SEC Championship. Would have made it easier to keep UGA in and flip Texas the bird.

What is Alabama's SOS if you exclude home vs UT?

SOS is a stupid arse metric to point to when comparing a different win loss record.

FSU Strength of Record is #3
Alabama Strength of Record is #4
Texas Strength of Record is #5

Should be H2H > SoR


But apparently H2H > Name Brand > SoR

You are a special kind of stupid. You can’t leave out a tough team in an SOS argument. SOR is a stupid metric you make up to deflect from your weak SOS. Thank you ESPN for another terrible analytic… SOR is for the ACCs of the world….

Dozens of spots better than FSU’s. Bama played and beat 2 teams better than anyone FSU played all season.

That doesn’t make any sense. Is going undefeated in the MAC better than going 12-1 in the SEC?

FSU’s opponents had a combined losing record.

Not my problem. Schedule better.
