Unless you think ND deserves a bye each year. Did you not watch the playoffs moron? I want to see the two BEST teams in the country battle it out for the national championship, regardless of what conference s they come from.
Going into the season the theory was that Bama was not good enough to repeat. Towards the end of the very strange Auburn game they were dead again — mostly! Then all the whining started again but this time Cincinnati was going to be the upset winner — most dreamed about it and all but guaranteed it. Bama won a well played game by Cin like they do against most lesser teams.
Bama looked like they finally found themselves in the last minute of the Iron Bowl game. Before that, they were pretty also-ran. There is NO logical reason when your school has been waiting that long for the promised land to not crush them when the Dawgs had a chance.
But I think I disagree. It would probably be the exact same outcome. There is no way they could put in a Georgia, that played a weaker schedule and just got whipped by Alabama, in the playoffs and leave Bama out. Pipe dreams. Yeah Harsin stunk it up that night. Good chance that guy never beats Bama. You have one that close and it slips away. More like choked to death and flushed down a doodie filled toilet. Thanks coach!! Ridiculous wasted of time. Im waiting for the next article titled:. True Grit is such a loser that the mole on his butt called the Dr and asked that True Grit be removed.
Why does anyone even respond to True Grit, a useless troll with the maturity level of a 12 year old? If the goal of the CFP is to have the best 2 teams playing for the national championship, mission accomplished.
The transfer portal, NIL and expanding the playoffs will only increase the chances of Georgia and Alabama playing each other more likely. This is an idiotic piece of writing. Is that the criteria now? Who cares? They earned their spot. End of story.
Can anyone dispute that these are the two best teams in the country? I mean, seriously? Who else? Georgia earned this, so get over it. And yes, Bama may win again. But they may not. This is now a one-game season. I think Vegas has it right… this is basically dead even. Either team can win. Who cares. I hear there are reruns of The Bachelor for you to watch. The point of the National Championship and any championship in sports is to determine the best team or overall athlete.
These 2 teams had their chances to be beaten, and yet each was only beaten once. These are far and away the best 2 CFB teams in the country. Saban has set the bar extremely high in the SEC. If everyone would just hit there posts with that one reply and move one they will disappear and maybe just maybe maybe SDS could figure it out.
Two SEC teams in the final game? No one outside the SEC footprint is going to watch. Everyone will watch! The best two teams in the country are playing for the title. If I was an Auburn fan I would be in disbelief at this article.
Those were all one score games. The cool thing is that the Championship will feature the two best teams, regardless of whether or not anti-SECers care. Not really true. Discounting this very season where the Browns played the Ravens in back-to-back regular season games, there are a lot of instances where teams meet at the end of the season and then meet in the wildcard round the very next week.
Last year, the Browns beat the Steelers in Week 17, and then travelled to Pittsburgh to play the wildcard game the very next week.
