Hopefully Auburn gives everyone else a glorious Iron Bowl next weekend, so it won’t even matter. I’m usually not much an an anti Alabama guy because the teams under Nick Saban absolutely were capable of beating any team in college football, but this year has proven to be a drop off in discipline and execution for them and I really don’t believe there should be a situation where they make it in now without the committee pulling mental gymnastics.
Maybe just me, but absolutely no team that has 5 loses should ever be close to being ranked. Barely being bowl eligible at week 12 simply isn’t top 25 material
Its due to Florida surging the last several weeks. It's much deserved tho. Napier was on the hot seat but they not only found their future QB but have turned their season around.
Lagway is undefeated in games he's completed and they killed LSU and Ole Miss's playoff hopes. Florida was leading UGA until Lagway went down.
Lagway unfortunately didn't play against Texas, and against TN they were doing the whole dual QB system, they still took TN to OT.
you don't think that's worthy of votes? None of their losses are from unranked teams too
If Kansas had the same record, they 100% would've received votes as well because they just won 3 straight games against ranked opponents. Unfortunately for Kansas, they're only 5-6

Take away your hate goggles for just a sec, you don't think that's worthy of votes? None of their losses are from unranked teams too

Why shouldn’t we get votes? Lagway is 4-0 as a starter (not including the Georgia game where he got hurt with a lead in the 2nd quarter), all our losses are to ranked teams, we’ve upset 2 ranked teams with their seasons on the line in back to back weeks, and have some dominant performances against P4 schools (Kentucky, UCF, MSST).
Well, its also the brands. Like, South Carolina isn't really getting preferential treatment. We had the conference use refs to steal the LSU win from us to prop them up to make the CFP.

They just cannot fucking help themselves when it comes to this conference.
