Nick Saban in his Alabama red advocating for Alabama.  Shocked.

[RaceToTheTop]

Nick Saban saying 'strength of schedule' should trump 'wins'......

Hell, make the CFP after the schedules come out then.

Craig James taking Saban to task talking about how embarrassed Alabama was in the Oklahoma game.

The ESPN boxed summaries of each team lists key wins. They should also show the key losses but that would hurt some narratives.

Sheesh , they’re milking this.

Yeah, if you're ND or in the SEC losses don't count.

Enjoyed the the emphasis on how bad that Bama near the end of season loss was.

ESPN showing the 'record against teams over .500' stat for Alabama/SMU.

Why not show the 'record against teams .500 or under'?  Bama 4-2, SMU 6-0.

[LamarCheeks]

Clemson stumping for one of the byes is kinda funny ...

They only missed covering the spread by 40 points....

I’m so sick of the SEC blathering.

Man, I hope they all lose their first game.

I will be watching all the SEC playoff games primarily to hopefully see them lose.

As all non sec fans due. It’s really a great unifier

I just got nauseous about potentially having to root for O$U if they send Bama there.

Four hours of espn crapola talk.

I enjoyed one of the commentators stating that OSU lost to a “very good Michigan” team.

Wait a minute……Isn’t  that the same “terrible Michigan team” that IU beat ?

Yep.  Not a quality win for us. But same record as Penn States best win.

Well, yes, they went from terrible to very good in a week. They were terrible when they lost to IU (how else can you explain losing to IU??) but very good when they beat OSU. Obviously.

So no credit to IU for the win but a quality loss that doesn't really count as a loss for OSU.

Surprised Texas is that high. They lost to a team that played a good bit of the game with their QB2.

They're 5. Host Clemson. Winner gets Arizona State. 

Pretty easy path, considering.
