Norman on the road v Kentucky at home


Alabama:
22.5 point favorite at Vandy (6-6), lost by 5. -27.5
3.5 point favorite at Tennessee (10-2), lost by 7. -10.5
14.5 point favorite at Oklahoma (6-6), lost by 21. -35.5

Combined record 22-14 (11-13)

Ole Miss:
15 point favorite at home vs Kentucky (4-8), lost by 3. -18
3.5 point favorite at LSU (8-4), lost by 3. -6.5
13.5 point favorite at UF (7-5), lost by 7. -20.5

Combined record 19-17 (10-14)

Home vs away should not matter, here, with how badly Bama lost in Norman.

Committee is essentially saying the loss to Kentucky at Home by Ole Miss was too much to overcome, even though it's not substantially worse than eithe OU or Vandy loss by Bama.

We didn't lose at home to a shite Kentucky team. And we're Bama, anything else?

Honestly other than beating Bama Vandy didn’t beat anyone off account. If they are better than Kentucky it ain’t by much. And I say that as probably the biggest vandy fan on this board.


What? Vandy destroyed Kentucky the week after they beat Bama and destroyed them AT KENTUCKY.

Think of Alabama as this year's gay trannie handicapped left-hander.


So what does that make Georgia losing to Alabama earlier this year?

You’ve got Ole Miss both winning and losing against Kentucky. The other Ole Miss SEC win was Arkansas


Yes, it was Arkansas I meant taking out the loss to UK, good catch. Edited to clear up, thanks again.

Flip Bama and Ole Miss’s resume and I still think Bama gets in.

It just is what it is.

Unfortunate.

Ole Miss lost 3 games by 13 points total. Really dominated all year. Bama had some WTF moments.

They probably should have just gone with Miami at 11

Ole Miss lost to a worse team (and did so at home) than any of 'Bama's road losses.


The only differences between Oklahoma and Kentucky are historical brand recognition and a 4th quarter collapse by Auburn.

Do people not realize Oklahoma was 2-6 in the SEC?

Oklahoma's only SEC wins were Alabama and Auburn.

Kentucky didn't win a single other game vs a P4 team, lost their P4 games by an average of 3 scores and is ranked 20+ spots behind Oklahoma in every metric. One was a home game and one was a road game. Alabama was a shite burger against Oklahoma but your argument is laughable. Also, that terrible Auburn team that was Oklahoma's only other SEC win? Their only win by multiple scores vs a P4 team? On the road at Kentucky.

Well I would actually think Ole Miss gets in if they follow the "protocol" which is what they are suppose to do.

Again LSU fan here and I have no bias towards Ole Miss or Bama in this situation. So I think I can be objective in my analysis.
