1 less loss than Ohio State. And didnt lose by 30+ points to a bad Iowa team. 2 ranked wins and Was destroying teams before they had a million injuries.
Iowa was a bad team? They were 7-5, while playing an elite schedule.
Ohio State played a superior schedule than Alabama, and had wins against Wisky, Penn State, Michigan State, and Michigan.
If we went by committee top 25 wins, UCF would be better than Alabama. UCF had 2 wins against top 25 opponents. The only difference is that UCF won all their games and won their conference.
How about Wisky? They won 12 games. None of which were FCS schools. They qualified for the CC game, and only lost by 6 points rather than 12. And btw, Wisky dominated pretty much every opponent that season too.
So again, there's no argument for why Alabama was head and shoulders over everybody else. 2017 is yet another example of why we need 8 teams. They are ALWAYS more than 4 teams deserving it or "the best".
