    1 loss v. 2 losses
    And Alabama didn't get blown-out by a team with 5 losses.

    You mean like Ohio State beating up 2-10 Illinois?

    OSU played 6 teams who ended the season with losing records. Alabama played only 4. And none as weak as Illinois.

    I thought we would not make the playoffs. But the committee sees Alabama as the 4th best team in the country. Complain if you want. It changes nothing.

    What Saban did was not ass kissing. What I saw was him pointing out that if Alabama had lost by 30+ points to a nobody, they wouldn't be in the conversation.

    If you watched it last Saturday night, you didn't miss one. If she thought she watched it last night, while it was still a whooping, it wasn't live.

    It was Saturday’s game, CFM, you were right, we watched it last night, waiting to view KU basketball, still rooting for Clemson.

    Ohio State got into the playoffs without winning their division or their conference last year.

    Only to an Alabama fan it wasn't. Why didn't Saban talk about the win he had over powerhouse Mercer? Alabama didn't have a win against a single team currently in the top 15. Ohio State has 2.

    Apparently the selection committee sees the loss to Iowa as a big deal, whether you do or not.

    And they should not have been there
    And Alabama shouldn't be there this year... But it's ok...
    I've told you in the past. I have no problem with people who are true fans...
    We always cheer for our team...no matter what
    Two great football schools with amazing fans...
    There's no need to argue about this

    Well said. Fans cheer for their teams. I am sure both Bama and the Buckeyes will be in future playoffs.

    If you knew it was Saturday's game, and you were watching a replay, why didn't you just say that?

    I don't doubt that at all
    Actually, I wish they would go at least an 8 team playoff system....
    Maybe we'll see that someday in the future...
    I'll be cheering for the Tide over you know who

    So now number of wins is the most important? You keep proving what I say. When you can use it to back up your claims about Alabama, it's an important factor but when it comes to not helping them, we get the excuses as to why (fill in the blank) factor isn't really that big of a deal. You've done it with the conference championship. When it's brought up that Alabama didn't win their division or conference, you discount it. However, you're on record as having emphasized that OSU didn't win theirs last year but still got in.
