Let's go Minnesota!

Careful what you wish for. I remember a time when Alabama was “relegated” to the Sugar Bowl and got boatraced themselves.

Meh. Big difference in this team and the team in their second year under Nick Saban. That said, I’d love to lose in the Sugar Bowl and turn around a win the next 5 of 9 title games.

That’s exactly what they thought they would do to us…
Is Bama - at a time - so good that it shall always be?
They look like another talented team with human foibles, not entirely tested. Like Clemson…

I believe his parents were living in the house, not him.

Difference is some of the Alabama fans and Nick Saban didn’t take Utes lightly. Utah was a great team then. Baylor is no better than the Michigan State team Alabama played after the Rose Bowl/BCS title game.

Also, if you have watched Baylor you would know they are not as good as their record shows.

Yeah. I know college chaos happens but it does feel like teams will handle their business and Bama will be left out. I’m ok with Alabama living in a world with zero margin for error unlike other schools.

Which are the most suspect…?

I think you are right. We recovered in the one loss years against Ole Miss and won the Conference. Only the 9-6 LSU year in 2011 and UGA year where Auburn beat us late did we need a little help. I do think having Duke instead of a bigger name hurts us and made the need to run the table in this year.

Big whoop.

The CFP Board might want to get their drink on early because it won’t be getting any easier next week.

We just need to keep winning. Whether we get into the CFP or not, only winning will keep the pressure on to build a better system. It’s either that or they will need to replace the entire CFP board due to severe alcohol poisoning.
