Why did 11 - 1 Alabama get picked over 12 - 1 Wisconsin?

[Rolltide94]

Wiscy played 11 P5 opponents this year vs Bama's 9 not to mention Wiscy won their division and Bama didn't win shit.

I'm not sure the Gophers are a true P5 team

Fleck should be able to make Minny competitive. He has a solid recruiting class forming.

I like Fleck, I think we'll be fine going forward, but we were terrible last year

USC got screwed more than Bucky

A win over mercer >>>>> a loss against ND

That's cute. Love how everyone goes straight to Mercer.

A close loss to Auburn on the road >>>>>>>>> Losing close on the road to wazzou, and losing by 35 on the road to ND.

Wisconsin’s schedule made Washington’s schedule look tough. That’s why.

Even though Florida State turned out to be a shit show, Alabama gets credit for scheduling that game, as they should. Wisconsin didn't show any balls in that area.

USC had a better strength of schedule than Alabama.

But more losses, one of which by over 30 points.

wow nobody can give a legit answer as to why bama was chosen over wisky, it's because ESPN told all of us that Bama is good and wisky was overrated.

That is why an 8 team playoff is needed.

Alabama brings in viewers.
Wisconsin not so much.

This^

Wisky went all Baylor (not really, nobody else does that)in their OOC scheduling and then got the Baylor treatment when it come playoff time.
No soup for you!

Cant' find 4 deserving teams, so let's go ahead and add even more undeserving teams.

Alabama is one of the 4 best teams, Wisconsin is not.

Not quite to the level of Baylor. BYU is generally a respectable team. It didn't help their cause that along with BYU being terrible, they avoided the top teams from the east. Wisconsins schedule was offensive this year.

What we need is more cowbell.

Will Alabama be fully healthy come bowl season, or is it not known yet?
