It's gonna break down like this :

winner of Clemson and Miami- IN

winner of Wisconsin and Ohio State- In

winner of Georgia and Auburn- In

Oklahoma- IN

I mean I could see a scenario where Miami ,Ohio State and Georgia all win and Miami or Ohio State is left out for Bama... but that's probably unlikely to happen

Nick Saban said it best....it's a shame that the ONE game is gonna decide Alabama's fate......the committee has a mess on their hands.

IMO, if you lose your division and don't even play for your conference championship you should be eliminated from consideration.


I'd prefer if they went to 8 conferences and took the conference champions into an 8 team tournament. No voting, no committee, no polls.


I mean, how could Bama argue they deserve to be there if Clemson, Ohio State , Oklahoma all win (obviously the SEC winner is going to be in) when they didn't even have to play the extra championship game?

Agreed..Alabama's loss couldn't have come at a worse time...but still....It is only ONE LOSS....to the #6 ranked team.....While Clemson lost to unranked Syracuse.

It depends where they place Bama....if its ahead of UGA,,they might get in ahead of Ohio St (if they beat Wisky)
If they are placed a tad lower, might as well say bye-bye-bye Bama.

Are Hawaiians even allowed to play football in the States?

-if that kid had started, it never would have gotten to overtime.

Default soccer kids

I been watching Bama for years. they never have a field goal kicker. I also watch the kids at the park playing soccer in the field. not as a team with jerseys just kids playing soccer. and they can kick a ball.
there has to be a kid out there that wants a free education. or maybe Nick needs that spot for a extra line backer?.

You're right, Nick. It could be as simple as that. It would be hard to argue against it. IMO

Alabama picked the worst possible time to lose.....and their lone loss is against the highest ranked opponent they have faced. Meanwhile Clemson loses to Syracuse and gets in...go figure.

I can't believe that most are okay with Ohio State potentially getting in as a 2 loss team. They weren't close losses either.

I'm good with Bama in as a 1 loss team. It's hard to go undefeated, and it doesn't matter to me when a loss occurs.

Bama shouldn't be in, regardless. They've had a really easy schedule, and they haven't looked as good as they have in years past. Plus, playing Mercer in week 11? Come on. Talk about cake walks.

But the committee has a stiffy for the SEC.

Okay, I'll delete my post. Thanks for enlightening me.

Alabama's SoS is open for debate, however the SEC East is down this year ( as is the conference ) and each team does not play each other in the division each year. That's just scheduling and how the conference breaks it down.

I'm not going to penalize a team for playing a cupcake at the end of the season or reward them playing the same team at the beginning of the season. Nor will I penalize them for not " looking as good " as they have in previous years. They are still an 11-1 team, not 10-2 or 9-3, records of teams everyone seems to love.

Not a Bama homer here, MIZZOU thru and thru.
