Is there a scenario where we still back into the playoffs?

Get some probiotics.

Lol. I just think if they had Clemson over us last week they'll probably have Miami over us this week

One thing to keep in mind as we near the hour of the rankings, Alabama might not make the field, and that is okay. It will allow DeBoer to work on other things as you practice for the Citris Bowl.

Either way, Alabama wins. Another shot at a title, or 15 more practices to prepare for 2025.

Roll Tide!

Sounds like something I would say. Stop it! Not sure I could stomach watching us struggle in a meaningless bowl game with fifteenhundred opt outs and a giant portal sucking sound. But ok, it is what it is. Playoff or Bust Baby!

Not getting my hopes up for making it.....but honestly.....come on.....I don't get my hopes up for anything.

Heather D has Miami in and us out and her reasoning this morning is that Miami has 2 close losses against GT and Syracuse and the committee weighs close losses heavily and that is better than 2 of our losses against Vandy and OU who each have 6 losses.

I mean, the point is accurate but that and 2 losses vs 3 losses are literally the only 2 things in their favor. Every other metric favors Bama.

And Miami did not have one top 25 team on their schedule. And they still lost 2. The close ones outside the top 25.

If Bama doesn't make the playoff, I'll still enjoy them in a bowl game.

There it is...

Just need SMU to win now

 

[crimsonaudio]

Bama is #11

 

[92tide]

Oh hell yeah

 

[KrAzY3]

Miami is a little high at 12, that's a bit problematic. But, SMU at 8 and Alabama at 11 is about as good as those two could have been.

The committee did hedge their bets a bit, they left the door open to leave Alabama out by showing they are willing to over-rank ACC teams (namely Miami).

Praise jesus

And Allah

and Geico

Georgia beating Texas again would be nice

Heather isn’t smart

Maybe just trying to dodge the backlash

Bama SC Miss Miami would have made life easier for them imo

so most SEC going to play in snow?

its been colder than last couple years in indiana in dec

 

[Cruloc]

So this may be happening then.

Let's win it if we're in it.

 

[B1GTide]

Really need SMU to win with their ranking.

 

[some_al_fan]

If SMU beats Clemson then we are in playoffs for sure.
If Clemson beats SMU then … ???

Miami can’t hurt us now. The other positive is that Miami and Clemson dropped 6 & 5 the week after they lost. SMU losing could drop them 4-5 spots.
