Of course Alabama should be in the playoffs, even with two loses.

The college playoffs without Alabama would be like Christmas without "Die Hard".

Heartbreak? Hardley, ROFL is more like it. Chaos is College Football’s bread and butter.

SEC just feeds off the stupid teams that have joined it. SEC was an also ran until all these stupid programs opened their arteries and started feeding the beast.

Hope the OU program rots in hell.

Not only no...Hell no.....

Auburn (not even a ranked team this year), spanked them hard last Saturday in the Iron Bowl and forced 4 overtimes.....

Georgia would destroy them.....

What sucks is if Alabama loses, most likely Notre Dame will get in, even though they haven’t beaten anybody this year.

Here is what I would favor:

16 leagues, 12-16 teams each, two division of 6-8 teams in each league.

League championship games would be the first round of playoffs.

If your team can't win its league, it can't be the National Champion.

Round two would be 8 games spread out among the traditional New year bowl games. After that round eight teams are left, requiring three more games.

Independents? Not eligible for National Championship. They don't like it? Tough, join a league.

Too many games? Cut the regular season by one game.

Then we won't have to listen to Nick crying the blues when he loses.

Until there is a Championship of Champions it is only fantasy football.

IMHO, there’s a bit more to it than just Alabama losing a close game to Georgia.

In order for Alabama to make it to the CFP with two losses, Iowa would need to beat Michigan in the Big 10 Championship and Houston would need to beat Cincinnati in the American Championship.

I think the College Football Playoff committee wants someone BESIDES Alabama in there if Alabama loses to Georgia. People are sick and tired of that team being in there all the time.

If Georgia beats Bama, the Crimson Tide should not be in the playoffs.

Who cares?
And, will it prevent Covid?
And, what does that lab-rat Fauchi have to say?

Alabama lost to Texas A&M who lost to LSU who lost to UCLA who lost to Fresno State who lost to Hawaii who lost to UNLV who lost to Eastern Washington who lost to Weber State who lost to Portland State who lost to Sacramento State . . .

I’m beginning to wonder if even a one loss Bama should even be invited to a bowl

Face it, the SEC Championship game IS the National Championship game. Just sucks that whoever wins will be limping into the National Championship against... whichever team.

Alabama’s playoffs start on Saturday against Georgia. If they lose, they are out. Unless Michigan trips up against Iowa.

If Alabama wins, then a rematch. Although Georgia looks too strong, and Alabama is suspect this year.

It’s been a long time for Georgia to win the National Title.
They usually field a pretty good team, but never get it done.

Looks like this is their year. I watched them play and they look good.
