SEC Championship Bama v. Georgia

[C-Man 27194]

Again, beating an undefeated number one to win the SEC championship throws a wrench in things.

It will not erase the Sept result. If the committee wants Bama in, they’ll have to scratch FSU. It will be easier if they beat Louisville in ugly fashion.

You don't see Bama jumping us if they win this game? 

The winner of this game is absolutely, positively in.

The concern is if Georgia barely loses this game, does the committee try to keep them in?  This requires FSU to lose, too.  And it would be an absolute fuck job, but they could argue for the ol' eye test and just thinking that Georgia would beat Texas on a neutral field, so they're 4 and we're 5.

So, the best thing for us is for either of these teams to win by a lot of points.  We need FSU to lose either way.  So let's not have an argument with Georgia.

We are in over Bama my dude. 

[troph 24781]

Alabama beating Georgia is truly impressive, impressive for Alabama and the team that beat Alabama. Texas will be the only team in the top 6 that has beaten a conference champion. Holy fuck.

If only when two teams have similar accomplishments and resumes there was some way of differentiating them. Maybe they could even play a game to determine which team would be better so you don't have to speculate.... 

I guess we’ll never know

[burntorangebongos 10710]

Now that we won so prettily, a Bama win here is what is best for us. Then the SEC has a one loss winner just like the Big 12. And the Big 12 winner happened to beat them soundly at their home field earlier in the season.  We won soundly today, so roll tide because between us and them, we should get the nod.

Correct, an ugly win wouldve spelled trouble. But we won in dominating fashion. Eye test and the bullshit. Bama aint getting by us. FSU will have to get dropped.

Do you really think the SEC champion is getting left out of the playoff?

If you’re gonna play the eye test with Georgia and Texas, you’ve got to apply the same thing to FSU and whoever. Georgia will not have a conference championship in this scenario and 12-1 Texas with a win over SEC champ will matter. These CFP people are all in Las Colinas watching the games. They’re hearing McElroy and Klatt and the rest of them. They’re all saying Texas has done enough to get in with one upset today.

There's no world in which the SEC champ is out. None.

Y'all think 12-1 Bama who just won the SEC by beating two-time defending champ Georgia is getting left out?

That's insanity.

[D3zii 3676]

Good thing some of yall not on the committee!!  
 

Yall would be the ones to put Bama in even though Texas won In T-Town by double digits!!

 

if Bama wins Texas is in OVER BAMA. 
 

the last thing the committee or College football wants is to say “head to head doesn’t matter” 

at that point schedule Sam Houston state and SFA for the foreseeable future

Michigan. Shut down Corum with our front 7 or shut down Penix with our secondary? Easy choice 

Absolutely this. Helobius’ wisdom notwithstanding, Penix is a witch.

worst possible outcome is bama beating georgia

No, they are going to fuck over FSU, just watch. Texas is going over the SEC champ since they fucking beat them head to head on the road. 

[Quagmire 2147]

Folks the committee had the chance to put Bama ahead of us and for weeks they didn’t.  After 49-21 and impressive records basically in one half by QE, I don’t see Bama jumping Texas. Roll tide!

lol sure but you really expect consistency from these idiots

Curious to see what the CBS talking heads have to say. Maybe they'll be a little more opened minded since this is their las sec game.

I know this is crazy but the team they are being considered against beat them head to head on the road by double digits. So Bama would then be out. But that wont happen. It will be FSU.

No I don’t. Head to head is one way to describe it the other is to say 12-1 Texas is the ONLY top 6 team to beat a conference champion.  It’s not happening. Now had Texas eeked out today sure. Texas basically 

 

on okie state and that is enough for the 12-1 big 12 champs to get in.

Well we're almost definitely NOT getting in if Georgia wins.  So Alabama needs to win this game.

There’s no argument with Georgia if they win today and get a spot.  I’d rather be in an argument with champ bama and non champ Georgia vs not being in the discussion at all.  FSU loss makes it all clean, but we want bama to win so we have other paths other than fsu loss

I think Texas going over Bama is an 80/20 proposition. Corruption is the only thing that would prevent a head to head argument.

too much stressing over stuff here. root for chaos. go Bama

I think it is possible. It is way more possible than Texas jumping undefeated FSU.

Play the odds....

FSU has a coin flip game tonight.

[mdmost 43000]

If Bama wins, there is no way you leave out the team who beat them, won their conference, and lost by 4 to a 10 win rival on a neutral field.

If we had beaten Bama by a point in Austin, I might agree with you... but we whooped their asses by double digits in their place at night. 

[JBJ 3654]

Everyone: If Alabama wins, Texas is virtually guaranteed a spot in the CFP.

Texas fans: Nuh-uh!
