re: Throwback to the only other time Oklahoma visited Tuscaloosa - September 2003

I remember that game well. As a scout teamer, I played Teddy Lehman’s role all week. He was a good linebacker.
The fake punt was indeed the decisive play.
That Alabama team had more talent than you give it credit for. Britt, Croyle, Harper, Odom, Ryans, Smiley, Peprah, Mathis, Shaud Williams.

Here you go. You can enter in different scenarios and see who makes the championship game. If A&M loses they are out based on their weaker schedule. Alabama loses one and they are most likely in (although it’s close enough between them and Georgia and Ole Miss that they could be left out).

This gives Vandy a 73% chance of making it if they win out, which sounds about right to me.

Vanderbilt’s playoff path
Posted by Decker on 11/11/25 at 6:48 pm
Vanderbilt is currently 14th in the CFP ranking and needs to get to 10th to allow for a lower ranked ACC champ and a group of five champ to make it in the last 2 spots. Vandy needs at least four teams in front of them to lose, preferably teams on the bubble. Here are the teams ahead of Vandy and their remaining opponents:
8. Oregon - USC, Washington
9. Notre Dame - Pitt, Syracuse, Stanford
10. Texas - Georgia, Arkansas, TAMU
11. Oklahoma - Alabama, Missouri, LSU
12. BYU - TCU, Cincinnati, UCF
13. Utah - Baylor, K State, Kansas
I think Texas, Oklahoma, BYU, and Utah will most likely drop at least one game each. I’m not sure if Vandy will jump Oregon or Notre Dame, even if those teams drop a game.
If Vandy wins out, I predict they end up 10th and make the CFP. Should be an exciting finish!

We likely make it even with a loss based on tiebreakers
I was responding to your troll attempt by pointing out that we still beat you guys despite having a disappointing season. Nothing more, nothing less. It’s obviously a sensitive topic for you.

Vandy needs to win and have as much chaos as possible
If Georgia doesn’t win by double digits I’ll be extremely surprised
It was a down year for sure. Georgia must’ve kicked our butts.

That’s actually incredibly impressive on Tennessee’s part. I wouldn’t have guessed.
Where does this season’s LSU collapse rank historically?
Posted by Decker on 11/11/25 at 11:55 am
Preseason top 10, a QB among the Heisman favorites and a potential number 1 pick, and the winningest current coach in college football. After a week 1 victory, they received first place votes in the next two AP polls.
Now, they’ve lost their season, lost their coach, and turned on their QB.
An analogous season at Alabama might be 2000 - from preseason top 5 with a Heisman candidate in Milons to a losing season and a fired coach. We know what came next for Alabama - Fran and Mike Shula (with Price squeezed in there). What comes next for LSU?

I think he’s trying to say that LSU has cause to cancel Nuss’s NIL deal and save some money for the Kelly buyout

I have no idea what’s going on and it’s wonderful.

Are you saying we beat ourselves?
Why don’t you just enjoy the good season you are having instead of engaging in made up arguments? Bama fans do not think about your team as much as you believe we do. That’s not an insult; we are concerned with our own team and enjoying the ride.
It kinda sounds like you are having a made up argument with yourself. TAMU fans are out in force this morning letting everyone know their team is the best and the SEC championship is a foregone conclusion. Good luck with that.
JFC dude. You guys started this thread and I just pointed out facts. TAMU has played well this season and is undefeated. You have also benefited from an easier schedule. Both things can be and are true.
