I suppose not. If we're lucky though, our next opponent may finish ranked.

If Auburn wins the Iron Bowl, Alabama doesn't deserve to go to a bowl game.

That team has no offense whatsoever.

I’ve never made the claim LSU would finish with all of those wins being top 10

But at the time, they were

What I was told, is that by end of season, Duke would be top 25 and it was a quality win for Alabama

Neither of which are true

Take it up with whoever said that. I think they are better than "LMAO, Duke", but I'd guess they're a little above median in terms of FBS team quality.

They are 49th in the Sagarin ratings (first and only computer poll I checked). Like I said, a little above median for FBS.

Here is a couple differences.

LSU scheduled Texas when they were a shitty team. Turns out they still are.
LSU fans started and are still starting threads about beating a shitty Texas team.

Alabama didn't schedule Duke. They filled in for a team that pulled out of the game.
Alabama fans didn't start threads bragging about beating Duke.

I was told Duke would go 10-2 at worst on the Scoreboard a few weeks ago...

To which I responded “k” and got downvoted 11 times.

I’m just an innocent bystander, but why would you poke the bear that is Alabama when you still have to play them?

Yes, by the way it is counted for every coach and team, it is still a top 10 win. Aggy still counts as a top 25 win for Bama.


You're an idiot. Rankings at the time the game was played mean nothing. 2000 Alabama went 3-8 but was ranked #3 at the beginning of the year. Where a team is ranked at the end is the only true measure of schedule difficulty.
