Playoff is set!!

Not really. Don’t get blown out by LSU and you’re in. Same situation with tOSU last season.

If we had lost by 20 in Red Stick and by seven yesterday, I wouldn’t complain if we were left out.

I agree.

I think the most important thing will be Alabama's running game. Oklahoma isn't especially good in run defense, but Alabama hasn't been as consistent in the run game as years past.

Alabama does not want to get into a shootout and the best way to avoid that is to use the run game to control time of possession.

 

[bamacpa]

If we will, I think we can run on Oklahoma all day...but I thought Georgia's pass rush would be ineffective so my film study needs work.

I would imagine it had to do with proximity of Oklahoma to Arlington.

Arlington would almost be a home game for OU. Make em travel.

Yep. It’s an easy assessment. Don’t know why anyone is saying differently.

What do Notre Dame and marijuana have in common?

They both get smoked in a bowl.

 

[selmaborntidefan]

From what Ive heard and read:

1) If the #1 team is closer in proximity to a bowl that is in the state of the #4 team then they automatically choose the other semifinal

2) If the #1 team is closer in proximity to a bowl that the #4 team is closer than the #1 team then the #1 team has the option to choose the other semifinal.

We chose the #2.

FWIW the #2 team has no sayso in the matter. For example:

Semis are Cotton and Orange

1) UA
2) Clemson
3)Texas A&M
4) Oklahoma

Alabama could exercise their right to play in the Orange due to the proximity of Oklahoma and force Clemson to play a true road game

Tony Barnhart was explaining on Twitter while ago that it IS the top seed's choice with the assent of the committee.

I know the whole "close to Dallas" plays a role, but I think something else does: I think Saban is gambling the field at Miami will be slower than the one in Dallas.

Hail Mary, full of grace, Notre Dame is in second place.

I was. Meaning point spread.

Could not get that lucky. More than likely Texas in the Sugar.

If y’all play Texas in the Sugar y’all should beat them by four touchdowns.
Unless the team lays down because it really doesn’t want to be there. It does happen.
I hope not - I don’t like Georgia at all but I hate everything about Texas.

I wasn’t and I agreed with him 100%.

I was a bit surprised with it also. Not that we could but that we did ...

Throughout the season, in order to mitigate defensive weaknesses, we did not attempt to put too much pressure. If we had, we would have given up way too many big plays.

The youngsters grew up a bit.

Just my opinion, we can throw out what we "think" about all of the top 5-6 teams and how they will do bowling. Many of us in here didn't think UGA would put up such a fight as they did last night and keep us in the hole so long, but they did. OU may give us a really good battle and ND may give Clemson one. Last night reminded me of Iron Bowls. Anything can happen. Same with these bowl games. Probability? Maybe not much, but one thing I'm learning about football is that old saying about counting chickens before they hatch. My two cents...

Tua getting hurt early and staying in the game was almost fatal; at some point players need to know they are hurting the team and pull themselves out if coach won’t.
Dropped passes - overall poor execution on both sides of the ball - resulted in Bama playing its worst game of the year. Georgia had something to do with that, but they gave up 21 unanswered points to end the game.
If Bama plays two solid games, they win the next two. Doesn’t matter how the other teams play.
I don’t see them playing again as badly as they did last yesterday. If they do it might not end the same way.

Understand... we all have those teams we don’t like. I have also read W. Virginia.

Pulling for Alabama ... always pull for the guys that beat me, if my team is out of it.

 

[uafanataum]

What should the over under be? I think 75 at least with 2 heosman candidate QBs.

 

[Krymsonman]

Clemson will beat ND by 40

I picture Clemson winning against ND like we did in 2012.

7 central time. Going to be fun.

Please for the love of everything, beat UCF, LSU

I’m still hoping UGA gets them.
