    What the fuck is Alabama's problem. No way they lose this game, but jesus, it's fucking Kentucky. Could they drop in the polls from this shitty performance?

    Considering Oregon just carved up a really good UW team, no.

    Alabama's trying to lose so bad. Let's see if they succeed.

    Also let's see when they remember who their coach is. IF their asses haven't been reamed yet, they will at halftime.

    would be hilarious if Kentucky pulls off an upset

    You'd think 7 consecutive titles would be enough to earn a little respect. Especially considering that Oregons last two games against a ranked SEC opponent ended in a close loss and an absolute beatdown. Both on neutral fields no less. But please lets hear how happy you are to beat your first top 25 team of the year.

    I don't care if it bores people, I still want to see Bama and Oregon play again this year.

    Also, I find it odd that Drake is getting most of the carries for Alabama over TJ Yeldon. It's not due to fumbles, because both have fumbled the ball.

    I still think if LSU can pull together a decent defense they have a chance to beat Bama and A&M and take the West. If they do that and win the Championship i think it'd be impossible to keep them out of the NC game even as a 1 loss team.

    I agree. They'd both be one-loss teams, and one would have a win over the other. Seems like a no-brainer. Until everyone else starts losing and you get another SEC rematch like two years ago.

    Injured ref on the field. Something you don't see as often as you'd think.

    God that'd be a nightmare. Should have never happened. But 4 teams had the inside track to stop it and choked on their cupcakes.

    Nike doesn't make sports cars.

    Either way, hard for me to get in too much of a debate over the NCAA. Oregon got caught, and punished. Manziel blatantly makes money, gets put in the naughty corner for 30 minutes.

    Tough to defend the Manziel thing. Either he was caught and should have been legitimately punished or you didn't have proof and he should have played. That half a game suspension is another albatross around the NCAA's neck. I suppose it just comes down to proof and in that case no one would sing.

    Stanford-Utah.

    What.

  15. #1975
    alabama has no chance against a complete team. oregon, FSU, maybe even stanford if they don't choke today (and if they do, they damn sure won't get a 2nd chance), would outscore them and match them defensively. the other SEC teams have already used their first chance but as we've seen in the past, they also get a 2nd chance.

    ironically the main argument against a playoff system in FBS is that it would allow people to get a 2nd chance and devalue the regular season. it's just odd to have a NC lose their division and conference

    A&M whipped that ass at home. bama gets a second chance
    LSU whips that ass at home. bama gets a second chance
    that's 2 second chances in 2 years while other teams just want a first chance

    that $2,200,000,000 TV deal has to pay the bills though, right?

    last time the SEC got treated like the rest of the nation is when auburn went undefeated and didn't get a shot at the title...back in 2004
    if you want an answer to "is the SEC really better than everyone else" then look at A&M and missouri. they're doing just fine in the SEC

    Basketball March Madness gives 1 seeds to multi-loss teams.

    Again the year LSU beat them 4 teams had the inside track to that title game. ALL of them got beat by cupcakes. Who do you take? A team that lost to the top ranked Tigers or a team that lost to Nobody U?

    As a Tiger fan I hate that we got beat by Bama in the title game. But I don't blame Bama. I blame all the schools that had a chance and choked. WIN YOUR GAMES!!!

    when has there ever been another option? they rarely have undefeated teams, much less multiple undefeated teams lol
    football is the only major college sport where you're supposed to win them all.
