Bama is the best team in the country this year. They deserve it. They showed it last week and will again tonight

They were one of the top 4 teams

BUT, if they were going to get in based on that criterion (i.e., not a conference champion), then they should have been ranked where they REALLY fell within the top 4. For Clemson to be the UNDERDOG tells you that Bama was ranked too low.
The #1 team has perks. But Clemson was dealt a raw hand.
I wouldn't have minded a re-match in the final game. I just don't agree with matching #1 Clemson with a Bama team that should probably have been #2.
They created an frenzied edge and got well for a matchup that should not have been thrown at the #1 team. Had we played in the final game, emotions would have been a bit more matched up, and prep time would have been more equitable.

If we were undefeated going into the game and they were ranked in the Top 5 in the country? I think they probably would have.

It's not about a team taking advantage of the opportunity that they were given. No division championship and no conference championship. My beef is the opportunity should not have been given. It wouldn't have been given to anyone else. No one can argue that. That's the isdue. Without concrete criteria the playoff is never gonna be a true championship! !

They probably are but they failed to win their division and backed into the playoffs while other teams had to risk losing. A system that allows them in the playoffs after that is flawed....period.

conference! I don't care if they are the best team, they couldn't even win their division, and played a weak schedule. Who was the best team they beat in the regular season? Miss State? Miss State gave the game to them. I would feel the same way if it were us that failed to win our conference.

Question: Would they allow a 1-loss Clemson in if we didn’t win the ACC? If you’re leaning towards no, then there is an issue.

Champions aren't chosen by committee, they win the games they have to win. Bama didn't win that game and therefore should not be in the spot they're in. Are they the best team? Maybe. Maybe UCF is? Maybe Ohio State is? Maybe Clemson is and we didn't get a weekend off like Bama did, so...
They did not win their division, did not win their conference. They skipped ahead like an entitled snowflake.
If the term snowflake offends you, then I'll use the term we used to use: pu$$y! Sorry to offend you, pu$$y

Snowflakes cry about rules and laws and fairness, etc. Well by the rule of CFP selection law, they are in,
The CFP has a criteria of which Conference championship is a component but not an absolute.
Go take your snowflake tears elsewhere.
And I will support the the conference championship requirement if they expand the CFP to eight teams.

shouldn't have been in playoffs. they played 1 less game than the others. did not play for conference championship. we and the other playoff teams had a complete extra game to play plus it gave them extra week to get healthy and we had more wear & tear like the others but not Alabama. did not belong.

But they proved they were worthy of being there by spanking our butts. They exposed our OL and proved that Kelly B really DID deserve to ride the pine behind Nick Schuessler last season.
Sorry snowflakes, but that’s reality. Losers refuse to accept reality, and they attack people who point out a reality that makes them sad. Winners accept reality, learn from it, and get stronger. It’s OBVIOUS where we have to get better if we want to get back to the CFP again next season. With the big time losses on defense after this season (comparable to the level of offensive talent lost after last season) our offense will have to step it up in 2018. Our coaches have a big task ahead.

The best team doesn't always win a game....you have to show up and Alabama didn't do that against Auburn. What they've done in the playoffs is irrelevant....never should have been there.

I don’t have a problem with Alabama being in if They had played the same number of ball games as everybody else. Part of this game is attrition. One more game is more chance for a quarterback or a star running back to blow out his knee. This part of the game is partially luck. But it is part of the game And part of the system. It is kind of like a high jumper passing on the lower level jumps and just waiting until the championship round to participate.

To be the man, you got to beat the man. Talk was that we were taking the crown away from Bama, aND boy did that not work out well at all for us.
Can't say they didn't deserve to be in it, they showed on the field that they did.
