If Bama would have only beaten The Sisters of the Sick and Poor by another couple of touchdowns they would have jumped us on that strength of schedule thingy!

The issue here is not Georgia. Because if we win out, we are in and Alabama is out. It is about the case when Alabama wins out and we can't, then Alabama is not guarantee a spot right now. If Alabama is ranked #4, the only team who are likely to jump Alabama would be UGA if we win out. It will be difficult for any other team to do so. But as it is currently ranked, Oregon or maybe even Oklahoma may have a chance if they win out.

I'm sure that the bama players opinions will carry just as much weight as the opinions of our players on last years final rankings - absolutely none. After all, what do you expect them to think?

It's fun to imagine all the potential playoff scenarios. Say we lose to Auburn, but win the other two. Then, we beat LSU in the SEC championship. Assuming all the other top teams have won out, who goes? OSU and Clemson for sure. LSU I would imagine since they would only have one loss. Would we go as two loss conference champs over other one loss conference champs like Oregon or Utah? Either way it would be controversial. If Baylor wins out, I'd imagine they'd be the team to take that last spot. IMO it doesn't seem likely Bama will get in unless Clemson or Ohio State loses. However, it would be hilarious (although extremely unlikely of course) if LSU ended up losing 2 of their last 3 and Bama went to the SEC Championship. It might end up being clear who the top four are or it might be controversial. Either way, the playoff needs to be expanded. 8 teams would be perfect. No one would have much room to complain about not getting in if there's 8 spots.

None of this really matters. It's noise. If the Dawgs win out and win the SECCG they would finish ahead of Bama no matter what they do going forward, and if the Dawgs lose a 2nd game we're out of it and they will slide in without even playing in the championship game just like a couple of years ago. They had their chance and lost to LSU. Too late to **** now.

Similar to the way Notre Dame sat back last year and waited for the fallout of all the Conference CG's, all because they don't play in one.

Frankly, I hope our guys are using all of this for motivation. Knowing that Bama (and others) are sitting there just hoping (needing) that we lose, will keep everyone focused down the stretch and into the SECCG. I think it's a shame that if UGA makes it to the SECCG, they will have to play -- and win -- that one additional game to get into the playoffs while Bama can sit at home, get healed and rested up, and then make it in the playoffs WITHOUT playing in the conference championship game, if UGA should lose. I still believe that gave Bama somewhat of an advantage two years ago. Go Dawgs!

That's a normal reaction for young men on a competing team. Is it possible the weak schedule BAMA plays most years is finally catching up to them?

Alabama has more than Georgia to worry about, if Oklahoma or Baylor and Oregon win out there is no way they get put in ahead of them. A one loss non conference champ is not getting in ahead of a one loss conference champion.
Actually Georgia is the least controversial besides the unbeatens, their path is clear. Win out they are in, lose a second game they are out. It's that simple

The best game Bama's played all year is a loss. That is an awful resume! Second only to Clemson!

Here's undercover video of Saban's reaction. They are taking it pretty hard over in Tuskalucy!

This, as another poster stated: "this is a waste of time". As will shake out in time. Alabama lost to LSU, if thing stay the way there are now, we will have to beat LSU to go the the big show. As of today the ratings mean nothing.
But first, let's beat Auburn. That is the reality of today.

Hey Bama, learn to start playing a competitive & strong schedule, eh? You guys have been playing patsies all year other than LSU.
Sure, we laid an egg against SC, and we may blow it against Auburn (as I am not convinced otherwise at this point), but right now we look better than you guys....

Hell no? Alabama needs to earn it just like every other team. To this point they haven't.
Roll Tide what?

You media jokers won’t ever let Smart out of Sabans shadow will you. There’s not a story here.

How about y’all just stop writing the same story over and over in different sentences and let this season play out. Winning will take care of everything. Go Dawgs!
