…seen. The move has gotten overwhelmingly bad feedback from everyone. And you just know that the committee, either subconsciously or not, told themselves that they could not give off the impression that Saban talked his way into the playoffs. That would set a ridiculous precedent that would undermine the legitimacy of the committee. Any chance Bama had of getting in was immediately destroyed. Terrible idea by the Alabama brain trust.

Every once in a while you have to be reminded to breathe, don't you?

Because Saban has shown himself to be overly concerned with those opinions in the past.

We went below a 0% chance? Wow.

I'm not defending him at all; I'm just pointing out the absurdity of your claims.

The hypocrisy.
That is where the complaining comes from.

Saban publicly stated that UGA was one of the top 4 teams in the country after the 2018 SECCG. But he voted UGA #5 in the coaches poll because of the 2 losses.

To pimp himself out on national tv? No, that’s not his job. His job was to win football games. Which he failed to do to the extent that his team got into the playoffs.

Rerun of what he pulled off in 2011, but wasn't successful this time...

No one outside of this board gives a shite about it. Saban always lobbies for his team. There's nothing wrong with him doing that.

Alabama was never getting in with 2 losses and no conference championship with the way it played out. His lobbying had absolutely nothing to do with it either way.

You think that maybe, possibly it was because he didn't want to have to play Georgia again?
