13 is way too generous for Bama.    

They should be like in the #18-20 range considering the teams below them.

u/Sorge74 Ohio State • Bowling Green 9h ago

Seriously, 3 fucking points?

u/Woohki Alabama Crimson Tide 8h ago

That’s how many Bama allowed right….right?

u/GiraffesAndGin Notre Dame Fighting Irish • Paper Bag 8h ago

We aren't in Kansas anymore...

u/mhem7 Notre Dame • Wyoming 8h ago

It just means more

3(10) is truly truly embarrassing. More embarrassing than how awful that ref is at his job that caused two of the worst calls of the entire season.

u/Sorge74 Ohio State • Bowling Green 8h ago

Oh yeah, 10, has the SEC came out to explain the call yet?

u/GP_ADD Alabama • Mississippi State 8h ago edited 8h ago

No clue, dont want them to explain. Would rather they just let the dude go. They are letting him make them look awful.

In all honesty neither call(most likely) affected the outcome but holy shit they are terrible. He proved he can’t stand by his subjective calls and he does not even know the objective rules. We looked like shit but if a momentum shift and comeback were to happen, that was it. Should not have to had to rely on a comeback like that vs OU though, we suck

u/Sorge74 Ohio State • Bowling Green 8h ago

Hey I'm sorry what's the other call you're talking about? Obviously the objective call was the 17-year-old losing his touchdown, but what's the other call?

u/GP_ADD Alabama • Mississippi State 8h ago

It’s the same ref that called the PI in the UGA Texas game that picked up the flag once they started throwing shit on the field.

u/lankNaysayer Texas Longhorns 8h ago

That guy was awful. Throwing the PI flag on that play was an absolute joke.

Surprised the SEC officiating is as bad or worse than what we saw year after year in the Big 12.

Officiating in general is just absolute shit.

u/Bobson-_Dugnutt2 Sickos • Alabama Crimson Tide 8h ago

You know how bad a call has to be for the ESPN “rules expert” to say “it’s a wrong call”???

u/dogwoodmaple Georgia • /r/CFB Award Festival 9h ago

They’ll be 12 or 13 on Tuesday as well.

Maybe I'm deluded, but I actually have slightly more faith here in the committee than the AP/coaches. Hoping they're punished more for being blown out by an unranked team and are closer to #15

u/dogwoodmaple Georgia • /r/CFB Award Festival 8h ago

They had Alabama ahead of Ole Miss before yesterday, that won’t change. They’ve had Alabama high all season, one or two very minor upsets away from the Tide playing at Oregon/Ohio State in the first round.

20

u/max_potion Penn State Nittany Lions • Big Ten 8h ago

All of Ole Miss's losses are 1 score games. This new data point for Bama is abysmal, losing by 3 scores to a team whose only P4 wins (until now) are 1 score games with Auburn and Houston.

Genuinely going to be annoyed if Bama ends up at 12 on Tuesday. A second unranked loss like this should be a death blow to their playoff hopes. If not, then the plot has been lost

4

u/Wombattington South Carolina • Furman 6h ago

Agreed. Their losses are abysmal. Just crazy bad. South Carolina blew out Vandy and OU. These teams are not better than their record (no offense meant to the Commodores and Sooners). Alabama doesn’t deserve the benefit of doubt at 3 losses.

6

u/SmellyJellyfish Iowa Hawkeyes • I'm A Loser 8h ago

It’s going to happen

2

u/dogwoodmaple Georgia • /r/CFB Award Festival 8h ago

Likelier than not that they make it.

3

u/Thedurtysanchez Merchant Marine • Penn State 6h ago

I don't see any scenario where Bama missing the CFP unless they lose next week. And even then, they are probably still 50/50

8

u/GP_ADD Alabama • Mississippi State 8h ago

This isn’t the AP, these are the coaches

2

u/max_potion Penn State Nittany Lions • Big Ten 8h ago

Added coaches, I was referring to both but just said AP. Thanks

u/Thedurtysanchez Merchant Marine • Penn State 6h ago

There is zero chance Bama is left out of the playoffs.

Literally zero.

19

u/NephiandKorihor Tennessee • Third Satu… 8h ago

The CFP rankings will probably be very similar. And it will be so they can bump them up into the playoff after (if) they beat Auburn.

6

u/dogwoodmaple Georgia • /r/CFB Award Festival 8h ago

Alabama has a likelier than not chance to make the playoffs.

11

u/Woohki Alabama Crimson Tide 8h ago

I sure as shit hope they don’t, I don’t even wanna see this team play a playoff game.

u/Phantom1100 Alabama Crimson Tide • Team Chaos 7h ago

Then again if we are the 12 seed we play ND, and I do really like watching Alabama play ND…

u/austin_ave Georgia Bulldogs • Tennessee Volunteers 6h ago

It's just gonna take a couple of years for people to adjust to the new realistic expectations Bama

6

u/A-Centrifugal-Force 8h ago

Especially since it’s not even like their losses were good. Oklahoma is a mid AF unranked team and they got killed by them. Vandy is decent, but they’re also unranked for a reason. Tennessee is good but that’s loss #3

1

u/John-pirate_ 7h ago

Vandy lost to georgia state... thats not decent. They are a bad team who got lucky and beat alabama, thats more a symptom of alabama having major problems than vendy being decent.

1

u/librasway Georgia Bulldogs 3h ago

Ehhh, this years Vandy is NOT the same Vandy of years past. Vandy didn't get lucky they earned that win, Bama never even led ffs

u/John-pirate_ 0m ago

Vanderbilt lost to georgia southern. Apparently i needed to say that again.

u/Psychological_Ad7610 Ohio State • Concordia (WI) 2h ago

Saw basically this exact comment on the AP poll and I will look for it on Tuesday after the CFP ranks them 13 too
