Can’t decide if I wanna see Tcu get trashed tomorrow to give us hope for UT to claim a final spot…. Or for Tcu to win just to confirm Bama staying out

We have zero shot of getting in the CFP. Better hope TCU doesn’t get blown out.

 

[jpope9]

imagine the excuse if they played in the SEC....

 

[Nash_Vol97]

I honestly don't think they win. I think Kansas State is a better team.

I do too. That’s why I’m worried about that game. I think a close loss still gets them in but if they get blown out then chaos will ensue.

What would be hilarious is TCU losing, BAMA thinking they're getting in and the committee saying we've had time to evaluate and it's Tennessee.

If bama gets in -
1. They will 100% win the national title. In this scenario, we should claim the Natty this season. If we don’t, fire D. White and everyone else who refuses to sack up
2. We should all boycott CFB outside of Tennessee games for the foreseeable future. Won’t make a dent in ratings/network money, but at least we’ll have our damn dignity.

Yeah, have fun with that buddy

I won’t have any fun knowing my favorite sport is rigged for brands. I will have my dignity, though.

Here's a positive in all this mess. If we play Clemson in the Orange Bowl, then the orange helmets won't be a total waste. The scout team can wear them. Hope they didn't go ahead and burn them like we all wanted.

[Orange.]

Tennessee 40, LSU 13 (highlights) [27 point win on the road]

LSU 32, Alabama 31 (highlights) [bammer loses at home]

Bama lost to LSU at LSU

I loved the Orange helmets.
not their fault that we lost wearing them.

Bingo! Id rather see the helmets than that crappy defense

 

[volbeast33]

They're getting more credit for losing a close game to us than any single win they have.

Change my mind.

I think it all has to do with nothing more than the SC loss…. We were annihilated on prime time at the end of the season…. It leaves a bad taste in everyone’s mouth….Bama was right behind us so they jumped us…. I do agree that the committee should use the metrics they claim to be most important which is why it should be done with computers…. Take the human factor out of it.

 

[volbeast33]

I vote neither…. The helmets were ugly and the orange looked different… not a good look, imo

 

[RikidyBones]

Lmao USC. Clowns.

 

[Glocker_Alum_2005]

So according to ol'Heather, it looks like TCU is in as long as it isn't a blowout. Anybody think she could be wrong? Hate it this is a noon kickoff, got a feeling the SEC and B1G will be huge snooze fests.

It could happen--It won't but it could.

 

[Devo182]

No, I just think the committee has to take in to account brands, matchups, storylines etc..... Bama having Young and Saban is what they are looking for. If they dont have a choice it doesnt matter, but if they can sneak Bama in they will. They check a lot of boxes.

Why do those individuals care about storylines over putting in the best teams, as their mandate is

They don't make anything off of it. They don't work for a media company

I've definitely come around on that with LSU and USC losing. I can't see putting in a 2 win team over a (fairly close) 1 loss team that played 13 games. 12-1 vs 10-2...the team with 2 more wins is likely to be in.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

If Stetson Bennett ends up winning the heisman now… ugghhh

Yeah because he’s had so many Heisman moments. Give the award to the best player! Only one has had a true Heisman moment, and that is HENDON HOOKER! It’s shameful he’s going to get robbed because he missed one game due to injury.

 

[Devo182]

So we need TCU and LSU to get blown out tmrw and hope to jump Bama to take the number 4 spot?

Would be cool, but not sure I even want to see that play out now as a 4 vs 1 with Joe and our banged up D. A rematch with UGA would be brutal.

Lets go get a dub in a NY6 and finish 11-2 imo

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

The year of the anti-Heisman moment.

Minus the one true Heisman moment by the best player in the country, who the idiot voters dropped off the list because he missed the last game due to injury.
