In December I thought 14-4 would win the SEC.... possibly even 13-5.
Now I think Auburn will not have more than 3 losses.
So now I think it will take 15-3 0r 16-2.
It is still possible for Bama.
This was a very disappointing loss. However... Ole Miss is an exceptional defensive team. They a very disruptive. We didn't play well, but Ole Miss had a lot to do with that.
In the BCS days the National Championship game would have been,,,, Oregon vs Notre Dame.
In the 4 Team Playoff days the four would have been.... Oregon, Georgia, Notre Dame and then either Texas or Ohio State.
Just interesting.
I reality it is a matter of staying competitive with our rivals.
If we don't keep up... we fall behind.
i don't like it.... but is reality.
( I hope we keep up)
The CFP chairman said the main reason they put Bama over Miami (even though Miami only has 2 loses) was because Bama was 3 -1 against current Top 25 while Miami was 0-1. If Clemson beats SMU then SMU would be 0-2 against current Top 25. I'm hopeful Bama is going to be in.
According to USA Today Matt Rhule expects 30-50 players to transfer from Nebraska after this season. This chaos has become the new normal. It will impact every team and the portal opens Dec. 9th.
I read an article this morning saying that Nebraska may be expecting over 40 players to enter the transfer portal this December.
It is going to be a wild portal window this year! (And for years to come)
Every team will be impacted.
