Because Indiana lost which literally everyone predicted?

That doesn’t move me one iota on Alabama doing any better. Like I said, you got stomped by worse teams.

If a 10 point loss to a top 5 team means you are horrific and not deserving, what does a 21 point loss to a 6-6 team mean?

Sure! We know this just like we know Alabama would easily beat Oklahoma and Vanderbilt. Right? I mean we can all say confidently who a team would beat and who they would lose to because, well...Alabama would never lose to Oklahoma and Vanderbilt.

Beating good teams shows your team is capable.


IN that case "Oklahoma and Vanderbilt got robbed! OMG!" "Oklahoma should have gotten in! Don't consider who they lost to! Only look at who they beat!"

Need about 100 more up votes for being exactly right please. Predicted the Indiana sucks chatter 4 hours before game time. This is a travesty these downvotes. Except for the bama part at the end I just have 200 ups

Dude… you got dominated by Vandy and OU. How did the rest of the conference orchestrate that?

Except he wasn’t. Good teams don’t lose to two bad teams. Alabama is not good this year. That’s just a fact. Was Bama better than Indiana? Maybe. But could Bama have lost to Indiana? Absolutely. Bama was not significantly enough better to warrant placing them in over Indiana given their records.

If Bama’s 3 losses had been very close games against significantly ranked teams, yeah, I’d agree 100% they should probably be in over Indiana. But two of Bama’s losses were BAAAAAAD losses. Like REAL BAAAAD. The Georgia win showed Bama has “potential” to play well and win. But the losses to Vandy and Oklahoma showed that Bama could also just as easily (actually it shows they are more likely) to play horribly.

If you Bama fans can’t see that and accept it as the truth and the reason you got left out of the playoffs, well you are just simply blinded by your own bias.


You are basically saying “a team should just only play the top 10 teams and even if they only win a few games, they should be let in the playoffs because they played a hard schedule”. Well that’s not how it works. You can’t simply take a good win and ignore a loss.

No one got cheated out of anything. Your team got their shite pushed in prison shower room style not once, but twice to .500 teams. If you want to blame anyone for Bama not being in the playoffs then blame Bama. They’re responsible for it, no one else.

Blame this year on Saban. He was the one that created the Milroe problem by not listening to qualified people when they told him Milroe sucked. His weakness was always offense.

100% agree with you that is why Bama was left out, so don't even try to say I am biased. The committee had to decide between letting in teams that have proven nothing, or letting in flawed teams that have proved they could get big top 25 wins but also have bad losses. And now we know they made the wrong decision.

Stop whining about not being in the playoffs. The ideal is to find the best team in college football for the year, and your team was definitely not it.
