First let me preface the thread by sayin I was all in on Bama this past weekend, lickin my wounds.
Respesct to Auburn for beetin 2 # 1 teams in 3 weeks..... Amazing...
And lets be clear, Tigers kicked Bamas ASS but GOOD... Not lookin to offend anyone but I think they will be out, looking in, to the dance.
Yes, there are scenarios that exist, and what ifs?, but, end of the day....Have they done enough?
I have Criticized Wisconsin for their weak schedule on several occasions so you have to look thru the same glasses that now highlight Alabama.
Best win on their schedule was Mississippi State?? that they won by a TD. Impressive ?? Hardly.
Saban must feel the pressure as he was selling a bill of goods for Bama to be included in his post game presser.
Alabamas defense was as porous as I've seen in the recent past and the kid at QB was exposed.....
No conf. championship game for them so they are finished playing for now.......
Close friend in Vegas pointed out to me that Bama on a neutral field would most likely be favored over all others in the tournament.... Yea I understand that too. They also bring with them a sustained period of excellence going back many years but I don't think they should be added simply because of reputation.
Also in order for them to be "IN" you have to take 2 SEC teams when many have said that the SEC is not as Heavy as it has been, and taking 2 teams from there would not be prudent.
And no, I don't say this as punishment for losing my wager,
Big 10 winner
ACC winner
SEC winner
1 Open spot
I'm sure those Alabama backers here at MJs can make valid arguments in their favor but I don't think they've done enough.
