So let's say we beat you by 2 points 2 months ago and meanwhile you rattle off 6 wins in a row while we look like dog crap. You beat a playoff Auburn team while we beat a nobody in Clemson. You would be fine behind us? No frickin chance.

That's not how it works. You don't get extra wins because you won by more, it's not a power ranking.


They are not “extra” wins. Again, per the committee, if there i no head to head they go to the outcomes of common opponents. There were 4 between Bama and Ole Miss. when you compare the outcome of those games…not just the win and loss, but who controlled the game-

1- UGA: advantage ole miss.
2- USC: asvantage ole Miss
3- LSU: advantage Bama
4 OU: advantage Ole Miss


Ole Miss clearly performed better vs common opponents than Bama did.

Ole Miss’s 3-point loss to awful Kentucky is a wash with Alabama’s awful 21-point loss to bad Oklahoma.

Wrong.


So you really think that a three TD loss to a 6-6 team is significantly BETTER than a 3-point loss to a 4-8 team? Both suck. But I’d offer it’s a lot worse to lose a game that you were out of at half time, than to lose a one score game in the fourth quarter. Yes, losing at home is worse than the road…but losing week 14 is worse that week five.

So, again, Bama’s “terrible loss” is a wash with Ole Miss’s “terrible loss”.

Or the facts that you suck now. Actually you may do well in the playoffs considering Oregon and Texas are the only real teams

As someone who has no stake in any of this mess this year, I think what sucks is the committee doesn’t take strength of schedule into consideration at all. That’s some bullsheet. A team like Texas was basically guaranteed to get into playoffs this year and next year based on their easy conference schedule. Same with teams like SMU. It’s all rigged in my opinion. It’s whoever ESPN wants to be in the playoffs.

A degenerative man who can't formulate a sentence and a black woman that has never played sports and that's what we know. Amazing.

Rewatch it dude. Sellers got hurt on the last play of the half. They tried to put him in and he couldn't go.

So he played in the second half, true or false

The key is not losing to that team head to head.

Caveat: also have a higher brand value among other bubble teams when all other things are very similar and splitting hairs.

This is true with this years group.


No, it's not. Alabama was at no.7, and UTK was at no.11 when both were at 8-2. Utk won that game, H2H, in more decisive fashion than Bama beat USC.

No one is saying SC didn't lose to Alabama. Of course we did. We saw it. But if folks cannot see that the CFP justifies what it wants for the outcome it wants, I don't know what else to say.

It's potentially going to keep more SEC teams out. They are the most likely to have resumes with a lot more Top 40 opponents and end up with 3 or 4 quality wins but 3 losses and judged against teams that only have 1 or 2 losses but those were to the only Top 25 teams they played.

Especially with how uneven the super sized conferences have made schedules.

We beat LSU without Sankey and if your memory serves you correct we killed Oklahoma on the road.
you lost to Bama head to head and you have the same record, this isn't rocket science. Also you lost to LSU who Alabama blew out of the water (but muh Oklahoma, everyone who watched that game knows that was on milroe, he literally threw the game). As for Ole Miss case, same record as Bama and SC, but with the literal worst loss. Kentucky beat exactly one P4 team this season, and it was ole Miss.

Taking officiating out of it, SC lost to LSu when their QB1 went out.

You're saying you lost to Oklahoma because your QB1 sucked in that game. This isn't the argument you think it is.

I will drop the entire argument if you can honestly say you if we beat you by 2 points at home 2 months ago and then looked like hot garbage down the stretch


LOL

Who cares if you do or don’t “drop the entire argument”. Your opinion counts as much as anybody else that isn’t on the selection committee , which is not at all.

Maybe you could try to strenuously object. It didn’t work for an attractive and busty lady attorney but it might work for you

it is, neither one of us had a QB in our respective games. I'm fact bama had negative 1 QB that game not just 0 QB, as milroe was suited up for Oklahoma

Also, our QB1 sucked when we played you and we still won, so what does that say about you. That was bad Milroe in that game
