Should Tide rise over USC to No. 1?
We asked this question in our poll tonight, but will expound on it here.  In every way imaginable, in every single phase of the game, No. 2 Alabama was the better team in the defending BcS champion’s 41-14 woodshedding of No. 8 Michigan.  And it wasn’t even really that close.  ...

NO, I certainly don't want to see us #1 until after the auburn game. I would like to see us hid in the mix until then because it keeps the Media off somewhat and no extra expectations, BUT after the Michigan game that may not happen. Especially with Herbstriet and Musburger blabbing about us. All great things comes in Crimson, I wonder what Foster thinks now, rofl. RTR!

I have tried to keep up with the changes in post-season play. Some of the wording on the new play-off system is ambiguous. For instance, I am yet to be satisfied that 2 SEC teams will be allowed to compete, even if they are the clear choice, without winning the SECCG.. So to eliminate any gray areas or ambiguous rulings, I think Bama would be best served to grab onto #1 and hang on throughout the season. We have a taget on our backs if we are #1 or #25. RTR

Agreed.  Worst ranking in college football: #2 in SEC.

Valid points there. Tip of the Hat! We got to beat Western Kentucky next week to even be considered. RTR!
