This Alabama team would be far and away the shittiest squad, at least Alabama wise, to win a major championship in several decades.

Could have lost four regular season games

I disagree to an extent. I can’t think of another program in the country who could lose a quarter of its starters and still end up in the national championship.

Either way, this is Coach Saban’s best job coaching since he’s been here, IMO.

Yep, could only beat LSU by 2 TDs, taking a knee on the 2 yard line, giving LSU fans all the confidence in the world.

Well shoot... If UGA wins tonight, I guess we'll have to add an asterisk in the record books.

I disagree. Injuries have kept us from knowing, to some extent, exactly how talented this group is. And play calling has been garbage, so it's hard to know how well the offense would be clicking if things were a bit different.

Mostly because of injuries and Saban's refusal to play Tua.

I really think the only reason Bama is in the Playoff is because of the past teams. If they win it all it will change what people think of the Playoff, the regular season and Conference Championship Games. If they win it will throw a much needed wrench in the College Football System.

Regardless of whether or not people think Bama deserved that #4 spot, if they shut down Clemson and UGA (who earned their spots without dispute) then it'll be hard not to say that they are the best team in the country, which is who the playoffs are meant to reveal.

I think most people think if you give Saban 5 weeks to prepare for a team, he will win most of the time. Giving him a bye for the regular season, discredits the system.

Huh? You think going 11-1 rather than, say, 10-2 was given no relevance in the selection process?

Their best win was against a very average MSU, A&Ms Freshman QB tore them a new one and they had 209 total yards against AU.

1. That FourThreeForty should stop posting

2. Anyone with a Penn State Logo should get of the SEC RANT

3. FourThreeForty should take a semester in Football before making comments like this.

An LSU melt before your national championship game.

Also, you are smart enough to realize that the reason you had it at the 2 is because time was running out and we went for it on 4th down. Plus we out gained you all night...
