BAMA #4 College Football Rankings

[roll tide roll]

What do you think Saban thinks about BAMA being in the top 4?

Prolly doesn't even know. He's focused on processing LSU.

I was thinking does not care, hopes players also do not care.

I'm sure his players know.  But they might be hesitant to bring it up.   


Hopefully this will light a fire under the team for this week.

That's what I'm thinking. How could it not?

I wouldn't want to be the person that would ask him right now how he felt about the rankings tonight.

Might as well just ask him for a depth chart.

It wouldn't be nice.

This has to say a lot for what Nick Saban and the Bama program represent in college football. We have all been very vocal about what would probably happen in the first poll but I don't think anyone on our forum thought that it would but wished it would. I agree with some of the posts on here, this has to light a fire under these guys.

I thought Bama would be around No. 6 with a chance to play their way in.   While I'm surprised to see Bama at No. 4, clearly the committee takes strength of schedule into account.  As everyone knows, this ranking is meaningless until after Saturday.

Like I said earlier: win out and we are in it!

He might not ever state it, but, I would guess he KNOWS we deserve it!

I'm betting the talk shows will have plenty to talk about tomorrow.

They were already talking about it tonight.      

(ESPN has exclusive coverage, and schedules a discussion show to go with the release).

Here is a summary:

A lot of hand wringing about Baylor being left out, mostly by Finebaum.  Others added discussion about SOS.  (During which I pulled up Baylor's schedule, which includes no one.  They said it was bad, but I didn't know it was THAT easy.)

Some discussion of Memphis' chances.

Silly bowl projections.

Discussing Clemson as No. 1, including an interview with Dabo.

And of course whether a one-loss Bama deserves to be in the top 4, which led inevitably to discussions of Saturday's football game.  Herbstreit "applauded" the committee for taking SOS into consideration.

E-cred for the very accurate Cliff Notes!
