It hurt ohio state's chances but I ain't even mad watching them lose.

I actually heard one guy saying saban had lost his edge and it was time for him to go.

The real answer is Bama has been losing lots of guys early to the draft and had a couple of "down" years recruiting in the trenches.

Now we need OSU to win to give Bama a chance at the CFP.

While I’m talking to myself here. Bama’s WRs are generally terrible route runners. They just can’t get open, or do something dumb like running a 2 yd route on fourth and 4 (see Robert Foster on Saturday). It makes Jalen, who is probably an above average passer, look very average. Combine that with an OL who doesn’t do well in pass protection, and things get downright difficult.

Wait, you think Jalen Hurts is an above average passer and is being turned into an average passer due to receivers? Sorry, but no. Maybe if you said average passer being turned into below average passer I could buy that.

I bet there was a bevy of idiots during the Auburn game that were screaming in their house about "the whole staff should be fired" etc etc... how silly would that sound?

If OSU wins Gcash how do you see the discussion between Alabama and OSU going?

 

[Telekinesis]

If OSU wins Gcash how do you see the discussion between Alabama and OSU going?

Like this:

Conference Championship (yes/no)
Top 10 wins/Top 25 wins (yes/no)
Strength of Schedule (yes/no)
Losses (yes/no)

Ohio State checks off 3 of the 4, including higher TV ratings/sales if it’s a factor.

Answering for cash, as he would want it.

The loss by 31 is killer.

I don't really like Bama's chances if they were to make the playoffs this year. Bama has not looked great against quality competition. What I mean by that is a big win over Wisconsin would probably get OSU in. A regular win probably wouldn't do it.

Bama's only loss is on the road to the hottest team in the nation.

Alabama v OSU in the Fiesta Bowl for a battle of offenses that just run the ball

Bama's only tough game was a loss on the road to the hottest team in the nation.

FIFY

Yeah. Almost as tough as Iowa.

Three wins against the top 25 isn’t great, but not bad. Is it more than OSU?
