Title: Don't be surprised if Alabama's No. 1 in tonight's College Football Playoff rank Post by: bama57 on November 17, 2015, 05:16:15 PM Quote CHances are good that you didn't like it when Alabama debuted at No. 4 in the College Football Playoff committee's rankings. Despite having a loss, the Tide showed up ahead of eight unbeaten teams. https://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2015/11/17/9750948/ncaa-football-playoff-rankings-2015-top-25-clemson-alabamaNot that anyone was surprised, as Nick Saban's team brushing off a loss like it's nothing has become an annual thing, Bama's beaten a bunch of pretty good teams, and The SEC Bias Conspiracy requires the committee to overrate SEC teams. The last one is a thing people shout about online, so it must be true. But still. Bama again. Even some of us have had enough of the Bama.

Bama's win over MSU was more impressive than Clemson's win at the Cuse, but not enough to justify putting a one loss team ahead of undefeated team that does have some impressive wins.

Yeah, we may even drop to 4th. After all, we're playing two cupcakes: CSU and the Aubs! :lol2: :lol2: Title: Re: Don't be surprised if Alabama's No. 1 in tonight's College Football Playoff rank Post by: 2Stater on November 18, 2015, 05:40:03 AM It wouldn't bother me at all if they put OSU ahead of us next week (assuming an OSU victory over MSU) to give our guys a little extra motivation going into barn week.

If it happens it would continue the string of being ranked # 1 during a season for the 8th straight year.

They have one player who would probably be third string here at South Al.
