Other than maybe LSU - who on this list of teams actually poses any kind of a threat to them this year?

That's not the point.

It's, "Oh the B1G sucks! the B1G sucks! the B1G sucks! the B1G sucks!, well Alabama deserves the #1 spot because they destroyed Michigan"

That's his issue, not that 'Bama is #1.

The Big Ten keeps getting bashed for being weak, yet they're basing Bama being #1 off of beating a Big Ten team. I'm confused....
No, I think "they" are basing Alabama being #1 off the fact they are clearly, at the moment, the best team in the nation.

Is anyone here really still under the impression that the B1G is not having an awful year?

This.

I think that all who have watched the games from the B1G up to this point that we got the hot potato of fail at this point. Doesn't change the fact that Bama is the best team in the country right now, and that they probably won't be tested all season, so they're setup to run the table again.

Oh, and don't F with Kristen Saban.

Other than TSUN, Alabama's non-conference is made up of Western Kentucky, Western Carolina, and Florida Atlantic. Who is scheduling their non-conference slate? Glen Mason?? Seriously... that's awful.


And TSUN's powerhouse moniker has been slipping on a week to week basis too. Just like us, their wins have not been impressive.

They have one good win, one bad win, and two losses.

OSU has one good win, and 3 bad wins.

I understand what you're saying, but do you seriously believe they are not the best team in the US?

I think most would say they are. I just don't believe they're infinitely better than everyone else in the country like ESPiN would have us believe.

You don't have to watch TexPN - just watch them play. I've watched them play two games thus far, and in my opinion, it's Bama.

Then everybody else.

Then TSUN and Ped State.

Bama's defense is extremely dominant.

It's easy to have a dominating defense when all you've played are cupcakes.

Ditto. If they do drop a game the whole "told you so" crowd would be out in full effect. At the same time they wouldn't be wagering their homes against it.
