no that's the politicting side of things. I'm talking about a general philosophy of how you evaluate these things. Sometimes people want to go straight to comparing losses and I just don't understand that. I've asked many times but nobody can ever seem to give me a good answer? Shouldn't the relevant question be who collected the most impressive wins?

No, it's very simple. 1 vs. 2 in the bcs standings.

You have officially made internet detective. Congrats on the accomplishment. What is next in your E-quest? I've never understood the alter obsession. Who gives a shite. Evidently the IP police were left wanting during the investigation.


If the dude wasn't such a flamebag before, I wouldn't give a shite. He was banned for being shitty and constantly trolling.

Go look at the Help Board thread and see the other posters who agree the dude sucked, which included other Bama fans. Why would you want him to shitty up the board some more?

Wasn't that the argument against West Virginia in 07? They didn't deserve a shot because they lost to a bad team?

Lose the first game of the yr and then win out. What happens in the polls?

Win all your games, then lose the next to the last of the season against a piss poor team. What happens in the polls?

No, the argument was that we had beaten like 9 ranked teams or whatever it was

The point DS is making is that it took Saban and several other coaches to jury rig the BCS by voting OSU waaaaaaayyyyy lower than they should be to get in to the #2 spot.

exactly. And you've got people dropping OSU to help get Alabama in. Yeah that's not shady at all, is it?

That's not true. It's been proven that if the few coaches who voted OSU 4th voted them 3rd, it would have made no difference. And the point is, LSU lost. Period.

This. With two evenly matched teams like that, the one who lost in the first game will always have an advantage in the second.

While I do agree constant flamers are a nuisance, 80% of posters here would be whacked if that is the parameter. Personally I think that's what makes this place better than all other football related discussion boards - there is a fair amount of freedom.

All other places are strictly anti-American if you ask me, and I'm not even a patriotic dude.

5 people voted them 4th, behind an 11-1 Stanford, same record. One voted them 5th, coach from Air Force. Bama was solid in the Harris and Coaches polls, and only a .02 difference in the computers.

I agree! What I'm about to say in agreement has absolutely nothing to do with what i am agreeing to!
