Screw it if someone does get their feelings hurt. Call a damn spade a spade. You laid out your argument and I can’t think of a defensible counterpoint even for the sake of playing devil’s advocate.
What is Clemson's big win?
Funny Stat:
Not one team Clemson beat this year has a winning record.
It's true, look it up!
I agree with you that they should've been out, especially after the Arkansas game . Im just not sure if there's enough voters that think " hey, we need to keep am ranked for bama's sake"
What difference does it make? The fact that they had the magic # 24 next to their name doesn't help Alabama anymore than the magic # they had by their name when Auburn and Clemson beat them either. Bottom line is that Clemson, Auburn and Alabama all beat Texas A&M which is 3-3 at this point. Equally good or equally bad.
Because bama needs all the help they can get to make yheir schedule look better....just I n case
I think it is a little of both! Alabama definitely does not have an Alabama Championship level defense + LSU looks 2011 level good but with more emphasis on offense than defense, Auburn is not 2010 or 2013 Good, but they are a hard nut and capable of winning like 2017. Georgia is Georgia. Florida is not Tebow Era Good, but they are better than they were when Alabama last played them in the SEC CG in 2015 and 2016. Personally, I think Alabama will end up with 2 or 3 losses. Even if they beat LSU, I can see them losing @ Auburn and the SEC CG is a crap shoot. If they are fortunate enough to make the playoffs, I think they go down in the semis this year. Tua and Co are GREAT, but they have leaks in the boat this year elsewhere.
There is no just in case this year. The schedule sucks outside of LSU, @ Auburn and SEC CCG. They will not get in if they are 11-1 and do not make it to Atlanta OR if they lose in Atlanta. Plus, that's a real reach trying to say that beating a team that was ranked #24 in Week 6 that finishes (6-6) is going to help them. lol. That's tin hat stuff IMO. It won't help Clemson or Auburn either who played A&M when they were ranked higher.
Oh, I get that, but it is more of "It's a shame" than having any real bearing on whether Alabama makes or does not make the Playoffs. What will matter in that department is whether A&M starts winning games or not. Either way, A&M will not be ranked this week!
Wisconsin is nasty good on defense. 4 shutouts is nothing to sneeze about. I absolutely, positively cannot wait for the Wisconsin @ Ohio State game! It should be high level stuff!
I mean what if a&m somehow beats uga or LSU? It will come up. They use these arguments like when they beat "#3" Florida state
Where is @4down20?
Guess he gone ???
