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

And UM has more advantages than about 125 FBS college programs.
Without a doubt, but the one major advantage they don’t have is — elite in state talent and a conference footprint loaded with elite talent. They will get the occasional 5 Star (like one every 6 or 7 years) and they will sprinkle in a top 100 recruit here or there, but the state of Michigan isn’t pumping out elite players.

CFB is all about who can collect the most talent, period. It is about who the best recruiters are in CFB. Saban could have stayed at MSU for 20 years and he wasn’t going to win a NC. That’s why he jumped at the first chance to get a coaching job in the South.

Are you really this dumb or are you just being a troll? I really hope you are just being a troll. If not, tighten your chin strap. Wow.:shortbus:

Don't worry, I got your shit bookmarked for when Alabama only signs 23.

He didn’t? Here I thought he won 2 division titles and a conference title. You see — winning nothing is what Saban did in the B1G and the NFL. That is nothing.

Which is why, as I said, great coach..............in the SEC.

Like I said - didn't win shit. The number of coaches who have done that is a long ass list. I guess Lovie Smith = Harbaugh.

I’m still wondering why you haven’t responded to the post you tagged me in, in the other thread:lol:

I guess you only want to look foolish in one thread at a time:thumb:

Not winning ‘shit’ is what Saban did at every stop that wasn’t the SEC. We’ve established that already.
Winning your division multiple times and a conference championship in 4 years isn’t ‘shit’, especially in the NFL. But when you are grasping at straws — those are the things you say.

Well, it's either because I was in Phoenix all day, or it was because I just got home and had 14 alerts, and before I had finished replying/seeing them all I had 10 more.

Don't worry, you'll get your fix chickenhead.

Actually, I don't see any alert and have no clue what you are talking about.

If Harbaugh was such a great NFL coach, why did he get fired?

It's a good thing you've set the bar low, that way you won't be disappointed when Jimmy Jam never brings Michigan so much as a Big 10 title. Did y'all make up State Championship rings for that one time he beat Michigan State or are you saving up for your first division "title".

This year is the first time I've ever in my life see someone act like a division title is something.

Even Conference Championships are over-stated. I couldn't imagine telling a Pac12 team "Well we won the SEC". It's like - what the fuck does that have to do with me?

No rings but he did go out and buy replica Paul Bunyan statues (the trophy in the Michigan vs MSU game. Even got trophies for beating Minnesota in 2015. For beating a 6-7 Minnesota. FOR BEATING FREAKING MINNESOTA! And it took epicly bad playcalling by a head coach in his first game as head coach ever, for Michigan to escape with the win after Minnesota just lost their head coach.

If you can't bet on the game, then there is no line.

You can say that til you are blue in the face, but with this crazy thing called google, you can see what the unofficial line for the game was. -33. If you aren’t sure how google works — let me know and I will walk you through it

I didn’t set any bar — just pointing out that ‘not winning shit’, not even a bowl game, is what Saban did while coaching in the B1G and NFL.

Since ‘Jimmy Jam’ accomplished more in one year in the B1G than Saban did in 5 years and won as many games in one year as Saban did in two years in the NFL. That isn’t ‘not winning shit’
