Bama fans think we had an advantage because


Jan 25, 2019, 9:15 PM

we had an easy semi opponent. The same semi opponent that gave us a better game than Bama and held us to less points for the entire game than Bama did in the first half. Look, I have great respect for Alabama. They are the gold standard and I am thrilled that two of our three national championships were won against them. That is an honor. But honestly, some of the BS that SEC and Bama gets into their head sometimes, like the whole Notre Dame thing, really makes me want to say the real final ranking after the playoff should be:

1. Clemson
2. Notre Dame
3. Alabama
4. Ohio State
5. Oklahoma


or, more appropriately

1. Clemson

2. see Roy Bus
3. see Roy Bus
4. See Roy Bus
5. See Roy Bus




In 2015,it would have never entered my mind to say they had an advantage because we had to play Oklahoma in the Orange, while they got to play Michigan State 38-0 in the Cotton. And our natty loss was close. We didn't get our doors blown off that year like they did this year.

Clemson DID have an advantage....


Jan 25, 2019, 9:20 PM

they had a WAAAAAY better team (and staff) and kicked Bama's rear end to prove it

last year. Bama loses to Auby and doesn't even win their division, which in effect gave them an extra week to heal and prepare for Clemson. They will never acknowledge that.

We are used to it. All 4 times in the CFB we’ve played a

team in the semis that didn’t play a conference championship game.

No other team has had to do that. Not even once.

That is amazing - did not realize that either!

If people were as good as their obituary - and products were as good as advertised - this would truly be a wonderful world !!

Not to mention that they got home field advantage as the #4 seed.

Brad Brownell: more losses than any other coach in school history.

what? Like last year when Bama got an extra week off to practice?

Advantage??? How about 'Bama playing against one of the weakest defensive teams in the country in the semi? Oklahoma couldn't stop Sister of St. Mary's School of the Crippled. And you want me to think that 'Bama was somehow strained to win that game?

Outside the first quarter, Bama scored 20 points in six quarters. Sounds like a speed horse on a mile and one half track. Oklahoma scored more in three quarters than Bama; maybe they should be bitching.

Didn't they lay 28 quick points on them before they decided to start phoning it in?

It was easy. We played Alabama and beat them down.

Let us never forget that the 2 out of 3 Nattys came against Undefeated Bama teams. I like the way that just Rolls off, we beat what most were saying were the best 2 Alabama teams EVER (Until they played us)...

Bahahahaha!

Another excellent point!***
