What the hell are you talking about? Alabama may or may not be the best team, it is clearly a top 4 team. Even using the old BCS computer model Alabama is there. If there are teams that probably don’t belong, they are Clemson and Oklahoma. How Oklahoma got elevated in the rankings after being beaten by TCU’s team (If you watched the game TCU made Oklahoma its bitch the entire second half with a third string quarterback and would have certainly won in overtime), but handed a victory by TCU’s coach, is a mystery. Clemson had a weak schedule and might not have even gotten by NC without a bad offsides call on the on-side kick. Ohio is a better team than either Clemson or Oklahoma, and a few others probably are, too, including Stanford.

You must have forgotten that OU was pounding TCU throughout the first half. The only way TCU got back into the game was through a despicable targeting infraction that took the OU quarterback out for part of the 2nd quarter and the entire second half. Or, the fact that OU played without their two starting halfbacks, Mixon and Perine, most of the third quarter. When all three were in the game, there was no question who was the better team.
BTW, most of the commentators I’ve heard have professed tha OU is the most “dangerous” team in the playoffs. I’ve not heard anyone use the term “dangerous” while talking about Stanford.
BTW, “Ohio” plays in the Mid American Conference and went 8-4.
Right, a team that’s 13-0 and has the best resume of any of the teams doesn’t belong. Put down the pipe.
I’m not arguing that Bama shouldn’t be there, they clearly should. Just speculating about the order of the T4.
