Why are the other 1-loss team's records "perceived" to be better than Alabama's?

- Oklahoma lost AT HOME to Iowa State

- Clemson lost to unranked Syracuse

- Georgia got rolled by Auburn

- Alabama lost to #1 Auburn on the road

It's not Alabama's fault that they beat up Florida State so badly that they couldn't continue to be competitive. Bama scheduled a perennial Top 10 non-conference team and shouldn't be punished for destroying them.

What is with some of these Mizzou fans riding the Bama coattails?

Just to be clear. The team they are actually being compared to has 2 losses.

And they will still get in.

Auburn wasn’t number 1 when they played.

Probably because Bama got pushed around against Miss St, LSU, and Auburn this season. They don't pass the eye test.

Pretty much. Either way you slice it we deserve to get in.

All those teams played and won an additional game . It’s called a conference championship.

You’re right, Getting beat by 31 by Iowa just screams eye candy.

Who has Alabama beaten? Their best wins are over LSU and Mississippi State -- both 3-loss teams.

Hero derp! It’s not their 1 loss it’s their wins . Bama for no fault of their own played a weak schedule. FSU should have been a strong win , but they just became bowl eligible yesterday to finish 6-6.

Bama’s best win was against #17 Lsu. That’s what’s going to keep them out of it.
Same goes for Wisconsin. Wisconsin had a very weak schedule . Their best win was against #24 Northwestern.

Dude, nice!

The media bias against Alabama is so bad I had completely forgotten that we actually have the BEST resume of any team in the country. Literally every team out there has a worse loss (or 2) than we do.

Ridiculous

I have a hard time saying deserve when I say Bama should be in over Ohio State. I do think Bama should be in over them, but deserve to be in playoffs really is another argument. This playoff crap is hurting my head.

Alabama played one good team this year and lost by double digits

Ohio state had no better wins. But this really has nothing to do with who gets in.
