Bill from NYC Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 I heard the rankings that I quoted on Sirius ESPNU. Did you read my post? I clearly said that I don't think that Alabama will or should get in barring miracles. I fully understand that they have to allow lesser teams in there to maintain fan interest, thus TCU and USC. Do tell me, what chance do you give TCU or USC to beat Georgia? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the regular season has to matter. It comes back to the chat we have had before Bill... the current structure is simply not fit for purpose. And the answer to that problem needs to be more fundamental reform and not a 12 team playoff which is the worst of all worlds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm questioning your SOS numbers, which as I figured... you pulled out of your rear or didn't really listen to what they said. ESPN has TCU #1 in SOS. You can look it up. Not just something you heard on "Sirius ESPNU", lol. Your evidence is your ears. I can post the link to mine. "Ohio State's schedule ws ranked 69th in terms of difficulty, whereas Alabama's was ranked 9th" Hell, tOSU's SOS is FOURTH per ESPN. Why can't you just admit you were wrong? I'd give TCU about a 25% chance to beat UGA. Who knows. I didn't think an average Kentucky team would stay so close to Georgia like they did. UK missed a short FG with like 5 minutes left if I remember correctly... should have been 16-9 late in the 4Q. I didn't think LSU would lost to freakin' A&M. Here's the thing: YOU DON'T KNOW EITHER. That's why we need a playoff and even more so, an expanded playoff... to answer these questions. Not just "SEC and no one else matters" crap that you say.

TEAM C has played 7 bowl eligible teams, beat 2 ranked teams TEAM D has played 7 bowl eligible teams, beat 2 ranked teams TEAM E has played 6 bowl eligible teams, 3 ranked teams and went 2-1 vs those teams Big XII recently (vs power 5 conferences) SEC: 5-2 overall the past 3 years, 4-0 in bowl games Big 10: 4-4 overall the past 3 years (2-0 this year), 0-1 in bowl games Pac12: 7-0 the last 3 years (13-2 the last 5 season), 3-0 in bowl games (4-0 L4 years) ACC: 4-4 the last 3 years, 1-1 in bowl games 20-10 vs Power 5 teams out of conference 8-2 vs Power 5 teams in bowl games You need to stop with the Big XII hate my man.

Bill from NYC Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 (edited) You just won't stop with these meaningless bowl games, will you? I don't even want Bryce Young to play in a bowl game this season. I would rather see young players get reps at QB and other positions. I guess this is because I am an Alabama Fan and can understand true success. Alabama wins titles, not some bowl games with nothing really to gain. You otoh, as a fan of a so-so at best team need lower forms of success to cling to but that's ok; I suppose I would be the same way if the team I care about ranged from being a bottom feeder to just plain OK. It's all good. Keep grasping at straws. I have been doing this as a Bills fan for decades. I actually have watched the scoreboard a couple of times hoping (for your sake) that OK St. would win a game. You of course are free to disbelieve this. I want you to see how good it feels when the team you support wins a championship. Maybe we will both experience this with the Bills this year. 👍🏈 Edited November 30, 2022 by Bill from NYC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that junk your talking about TCU, they beat about 6 more teams similar to Miss and Miss State. They already beat the # 10 team, beat that same Texas team by 7 instead of 1 in the same stadium. We can talk about how on paper Alabama would crush this team or that team but they never showed it on the field.

There are only 3-4 teams like Alabama, Ohio State, Clemson and UGA. 3 or 4 teams like Duke, Kentucky, Kansas, UNC in basketball. You act like a snobby OU fan... that you're better than EVERYONE else because you root for a team that has a history of success. It's EASY to root for those teams. Takes no effort to suffer through a heartbreaking season (last year or 2011 for Oklahoma State for example in football). You remind me of Okies around here (term I'm proud of BTW) in the 80's... root for OU and the Dallas Cowboys. Just root for the team who wins. Bandwagon fans. You Bama fans are just better than everyone else I guess. A program who had to drag themselves out of hell after getting the 2nd worst NCAA punishment in history... going from 0-10-1 to a program who has the 10th most overall wins the past 15 years isn't "so-so at best". You have a f'ed up idea of what a "bottom feeder" is dude. Explain how a program who is 145-61 (v 193-27 for Alabama), 10th in the country for win/loss and winning percent is a bottom feeder??? New Mexico State at 46-137 and a 25% win rate? That's a bottom feeder. Not a team who plays for the conference title virtually every season (along with OU). Your mindset is so annoying. Alabama is the New England of college football. Think they're better than everyone else so everyone else is wrong and can go to hell.

That's why we need the expansion IMO. People like Bill doesn't think anyone else matters but SEC teams (maybe a Big 10 team or two every so often). He completely rules out the Big XII or PAC12 has any shot v those conferences... even though I have shown, the Big XII has DOMINATED the other power 5 conferences the past few years.

Not so bad for a team that was average at best when the universally hated Coach Saban took over. You see, as a lifelong Crimson Tide Fan I am not forced to sing the blues over feeling like I was screwed over in 2011, or some other abstract year. If you read my posts on this thread, you will NOT find one in which I said that this Alabama team deserves a playoff spot. On the contrary, I said before and will say again that they do not. Now, if they woud have pulled out a win in one of their 2 losses (by a combined 4 points mind you), I would be singing a different tune, at least until the conference championship game. Next year will also be a question mark with the loss of Bryce Young. I am hoping that an improved OL and DL will help make up for the loss, at least to some degree. Either way, they will be able to compete with the best of teams. They have to, just by virtue of playing in the SEC. Btw, please do tell us about your favorite team.

That's because Alabama football is a blue blood program who gets 5-star kids 3 deep at every spot. A HOF coach. Again, you just don't get it. You are spoiled dude.

But what you don't seem to get is that The Crimson Tide are not handed anything. Saban tells the world his coaching methods in virtually every interview. He isn't keeping secrets wrt what he feels that it takes to win. Hell, even McDermott runs around talking about the "process," a term invented by Saban. The trick is to work as hard as Saban does. Saban loses his OC, DC, and untold other assistants constantly. You know this very well, whereas even Daboll was another Saban rehab. He has former assistants all over the NCAA making millions upon millions of dollars. And let me say once again, NIL has REALLY changed things. College football players running the streets with hundreds of thousands of dollars in their pockets has altered the dynamics of the game. These kids are harder to motivate. If you don't believe me ask Jimbo Fisher, who had the highest ranked recruiting class of all time and is what, 4-7? Coach Saban must adapt to this and I'm sure that he can and will. One last thing....Oklahoma is not the garden spot of the USA, and neither is Alabama!!! It isn't like being in Alabama offers the kids an exciting atmosphere like USC perhaps. My point is that other teams have a big recruiting edge over Alabama (and Okla. St.) in terms of location. Anyway, I'm just a fan enjoying the ride.

So please express your SEC dominance on me about how the little ACC can’t compete when their 3rd place team beat the SEC west champion and their rival Florida and will get another chance probably in the Gator Bowl against USC, Kentucky, or Miss.

Bill from NYC Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Congrats to you for Florida State perhaps coming out of their long term doldrums. I remember the feeling when The Crimson Tide pretty much sucked. That said, the ACC IS a second rate conference, SO bad that it enables Clemson to coast into the playoffs seemingly at will, although even Clemson is not all that this season now are they? And for the record I do not root for other SEC teams, other than perhaps Arkansas because I lived there for a couple of months and was treated well. I don't care if Georgia wins or loses against TCU or USC. It is just my sincere opinion that Georgia will dog walk either one of those teams. This is my opinion to which I would seem to be allowed have, just as you are entitled to yours. Oh and if you want to compare the programs of Alabama and FSU, do start here if you will.

Bama lost to Tennessee. If being a close loss helps why don’t the close wins to A&M Ole Miss and Longhorns hurt? I get the Austin Peay blowout has to go on the plus side. It was incredibly awesome.

USC really looked GREAT last night and the PAC 12 is a tremendous conference. I’m sensing sarcasm. That’s what USC gets for not playing strong teams like Austin Peay. TCU down at half. Congrats on Bama’s playoff spot. Even if the frogs come back you just can’t justify putting them ahead of the Tide. I mean TCU will have almost lost a game and Bama only almost lost four. Fair is fair. Roll tide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talley56 Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Even though it won't be for a playoff spot, Clemson/UNC may be more entertaining to watch than Michigan/Purdue or Georgia/LSU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark92 Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 If TCU goes down will that move Ohio State up to #3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it it’s big, then maybe. Otherwise probably not. So far a really tight game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirAndrew Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 I hope K State holds on. TCU doesn’t look like a team I want to watch in the CFP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they also play in a bargain basement, garbage can conference. Too bad they couldn't squeak out another win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talley56 Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Even with the loss, I personally think TCU should be in over Alabama. One less loss and, common opponent, at Texas, Bama needed a FG at the buzzer to win while TCU led most of the game and, while it was a one-score game, beat Texas a little more handily. That being said, unfortunately, I'm almost positive the decision makers will put Bama in. I bet they are salivating over a Georgia/Bama & Michigan/Ohio St playoff.

Process Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Those 3rd and 4th down play calls should make tcu ineligible for the playoffs, jfc 🤦♂️ how do you not keep it in duggans hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m interested in the “logic” when you can’t sarcastically insult ever non-SEC league in the country. 2 minutes ago, YoloinOhio said: So much drama How does one “justify” Bama being ahead of Tennessee?

Comes down to Tennessee losing big twice and the fact they are on their backup QB. Shouldn't matter though. Top 4 will most likely be 1 UGA 2 Michigan 3 OSU 4 TCU Maybe Bama sneaks in but I honestly don't see it with TCU losing in OT by a FG.
