These things are only remembered when your team losses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TailgateChef Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 I keep noticing #48 for Alabama. The Bills need one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notre Dame would probably be down 35-0 by this point, considering their playoff history. Bama is just ridiculously better than everyone in college football. The other SEC has been average in Bowl games, so I don’t think group of 5 teams should be punished, regardless of outcome here. Bama just makes everyone look awful. Unfortunately, some will use it to fuel an anti mid major bias. Then they should make the National Championship just beating Alabama. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PromoTheRobot Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Haven't watched the entire game, but how can Cincinnati take such stupid penalties, as if Alabama needs the help? This is exactly what their coach was saying at the start of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's reminded me a lot of Brad Kaaya but with better wheels. Can't see how that's first round with all the QB talent in the NFL now.........but Kaaya was grossly overrated by draftniks as well. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I really want to see the playoff field expanded. It would provide opportunity for better matchups. Giving OSU or Baylor a chance is far more appealing than a Bama/Georgia rematch. I’ll be rooting big for Michigan. I’m fine with Georgia being in the field, but I’d love to see more teams to mix things up a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only in the early rounds, maybe. How competitive will 1 v 8 and 2 v 7 be? Those games will probably be consistent blow outs. What do you expect will happen when the winners of the others 2 games face 1 and 2? How many of those games will be blowouts? 6 hours ago, SirAndrew said: Giving OSU or Baylor a chance is far more appealing than a Bama/Georgia rematch. I’ll be rooting big for Michigan.

In the end, if the NC game ended up is still Bama vs UGA, did it matter? 8 hours ago, TailgateChef said: Noticed that as well. Does it have anything to do with Doug Marrone (who is now the Alabama line coach - Oh Doug....)? No. Bama has been using the cards with the NFL teams since Kiffin was the OC.

In fact, I read somewhere that Georgia is opening at minus 3 1/2. What I am confused about it the quality of the Big Ten in 2021. I just can't tell how good they are and after the GA/Mich game I am even more confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been proven year after year, and they took a beating in the SEC title game. I’m not saying Georgia can’t win the title, although Alabama is the better team, upsets do happen. Alabama with Saban is in a class of their own. They’re only slowed by occasional outliers like Clemson who are able to match them certain years. This seems to be another season where no one can match Bama. Regarding the Big Ten, I think the Big Ten was mediocre. Ohio State was one of the few teams with anything that resembled a real offense, and that conference doesn’t have enough speed. I can’t help but to see the college game as Bama, and everyone else though. It goes beyond which conference is the best, it’s simply Bama being better than everyone, including the SEC. Bama has done more for the image of its conference than any team in history. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will tell you that I am 100% positive that this Alabama team is simply not as good as the 2020 team. i don't even think that it is close. The 6 tremendous players that they lost on offense are kicking ass in then NFL as rookies. The thing is, I get the feeling that many other teams also got worse. Perhaps Oklahoma, Ohio State, and certainly Clemson are examples. I am not overly confident coming into the title game. It makes me uncomfortable because the last time I felt like this was when Clemson beat us. But as you imply, Saban teams almost always have a good shot at winning. He is in a class with no other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
