While some will want Ala in the playoffs, others will note the scheduling by other SEC teams and reject Alabama's resume.

While the Aggies chose Clemson as their OOC opponent, Bama chose Duke.

While LSU chose Texas as their OOC opponent, Bama chose Duke.

While Ga chose ND as their OOC opponent, Bama chose Duke.

While Aub chose Oregon as their OOC opponent, Bama chose Duke.

While Fla chose Fla St as their OOC opponent, Bama chose Duke.

Most would probably understand Bama scheduling Duke if Alabama was playing both Fla and Ga during the regular season. But even that schedule didn't stop Aub. Saban has a lot of explaining to do. I doubt that they get in, there's needs to be a punishment, not a reward for how Saban allowed this joke of a schedule.

SOS sucks... we don’t need to be considered over a 1 loss P5 champ... but if we win out and all that remains are 2 loss P5 champs... welll...

2 loss Georgia would still have 3 wins over top 10-20 teams. Bama might have 1.

I think PAC 12 can jump for sure. Oklahoma maybe. Worst case for Bama is Penn State over Ohio State.

Alabama was dominated at home vs LSU, and Saban can't defend their crappy schedule. Those are the facts.

Now a 5 point win is domination. I guess your arsehole puckered with all that domination till LSU recovered the onside kick.

There is no debate look at the combined records of the teams they beat and the only highly ranked team they played put up almost 50 points on them being LSU and they lost at home. They have zero chance this year. It’s over for them this year as far as playoffs go.

LSU was blowing out Ala, 33 to 13 at the half, Ala was really never in it. Saban could never stop LSU's offense. LSU scored at will. Those are the facts.

Ok, now you are being just as silly as the BAMA fans arguing for...

No way a one loss BAMA team gets left out for a two loss team,,,

Not really. LSU showed they were capable of doing what needed to be done to win. While bama came out and acted like they were staring down the eyes of the big bad wolf.

The game was never in question.

You are only trying to convince yourself. The fact is if Baylor loses we are most likely in. The committee will look at how talented this team is with a healthy Tua and then look at how well we played LSU with a gimpy Tua. The crap schedule is only one metric, you are beating it like a dead horse because its all you have.

If we beat Auburn by 1 and Baylor loses there is a 55% chance we get in over Oregon. If we beat Auburn by 14 there is a 90% chance we get in over Oregon. Not only did Oregon lose the game, they also played Nix in his first game ever vs when Alabama will play Auburn at the end of the year. This isnt the sole reason, but only amplifies how bad the loss was for Oregon to lose to not only a shitty QB but a shitty QB with no experience. Now if the Pac 12 was a half decent conference then maybe they would still have an argument. But since its filled with shitty teams and Oregon just doesnt look like a championship team, the committee will not bump them over a Bama team that would probably be favored over LSU in the playoffs with a non-gimpy Tua. Just need Baylor to lose now. Roll Hurts!

You need to worry about the Big 12 and PAC 12 champions, both will have far better resumes than Ala.

I’ve been posting about Alabama fatigue for weeks. It’s real and growing.

Bama got blown out last year in the playoffs and has done nothing this year to prove things would be any different.

You could argue they have regressed considerably. They do not perform well against anyone with a pulse.

Add those stupid lights they kept using last night and they’re a national punch line.

It also looks like MN controls their destiny. They looked pretty good embarrassing Penn. St. If they win out and lose to tOSU in the CCG, their SOS puts them ahead of a 1 loss Bama.
