Who here actually believes Bama doesn’t belong in the playoffs?

We haven’t beat anyone superb, but we have beat some quality teams, and the game we lost was to a very physical, well coached team.

I don’t see how anyone could say we don’t belong in the playoffs with the way the season has gone, and with all that talent on our team.

I think we easily get in. Final 4 here we come. Buckle up.

If OU and Wisky win then Bama definitely doesn’t deserve to be in.

Who have they played that was impressive enough to say they are good?

By Bama's argument UCF should be in the playoff.

Define quality. Are Michigan State and Michigan quality wins?

What you are experiencing is the sting of supporting a good team that had every thing in front of them only to fall one game short to a superior SEC opponent.
It comes with playing in a good conference.
The reason everyone hates Bama is because when this happens to you, you expect a mulligan that no one else gets.
Deal with it like everyone else instead of relying on these desperate politics.

Well if Oklahoma and Wisconsin win we don't deserve to get in. If one of them lose though, we probably deserve it more than anybody else. Pretty weak field of resumes would be battling for the 4th spot but we'd be the best of the bunch. We'd have fewer losses and had plenty of chances to lose by 31 to a 7-5 team but never did. Ohio St would be 5-2 against .500 or better teams and Alabama would be 7-1. Worst record against those teams to make the playoff was Washington at 6-1 last year. Not sure they still wouldn't jump Ohio St over us though.

Top 15.

No, but it also helps to be undefeated which Alabama is not.

If you really look at it objectively you can easily see it. Bama unfortunately went untested all season. They needed a kick in the nuts from an SEC opponent early but it just never happened. The schedule was bad, period. Not the fault of Bama, just bad luck.

Wisconsin, Aub/UGA, Clemson/Miami, OU will be your playoff

I think Alabama should get in over Ohio State if Wisconsin loses.

But I would not put them in over an undefeated Wiscy, a one loss Clemson and a one loss Oklahoma.

Ok good deal. So Wisconsin, Penn State, Ohio State, TCU, Miami, and Georgia all have one quality win between them. And most have a worse loss than Bama and some have 2 losses

Seems like you'd agree then if Ohio St beats Wisconsin it would help Alabama to have one loss and not two.

One of these is not like the others. Already got mulligan title . At least win your conference championship.
