Wow as a Buckeyes fan I'm very impressed with what Michigan did their final two games. Beating OSU and Bama by giving up combined 23 points total is beyond impressive.
@joeborghese7241 Beating OSU is the most important thing to the program. If that occurs then it was a good season, no matter the record. Thats why its called "The Game". Just means more to us than any other rivalry. Beating Alabama is just good for recruiting.
If Alabama had a nice pocket passer like AJ McCarron, Brodie Croyle, Mac Jones, or even McElroy, they would have won the game. The Michigan coaching staff took advantage of Milroe being a very poor passer, which is how they won the Rose Bowl last year too.
Well, you really have to break that down. Which, Alabama team deserved to be in the playoff? That's the problem. You never know what team will show up on a given Saturday.
... and the same for Clemson Head Coach Dabo Sweeney saying that SMU "deserved to be in the CFP,and is a good football team".Well,Penn State responded with an oh! really? watch this...and made Dabo look foolish.😂 A team he just beat on a last second field goal.🙄🙄
@@jaserand6001 that’s literally mental gymnastics to try and justify them. I’ve seen a bad Alabama team more than Half the year. I see a good Alabama team ONCE against Georgia in the 1st half. That’s it. I know what team is going to show up, and that’s the bad one.
In case you haven't noticed alabama doesn't have a passing game either milroe is flat out terrible glad he's gone that coaching staff has no idea what they are doing has straight ran alabama into the ground
I think this is truly why Saban retired. His advantage of pay to win was over and losing to a developed mostly 3 star rostered Michigan was the final seal. He was not a great coach until 5 stars filled Bamas roster in his second year. Remember his first year at Bama they lost to UL Monroe

For several years now, Michigan has been accused of playing a weak schedule. This year, although not one of their most successful, they played 5 of the top 11 teams and won 2 of them, one on the road and one neutral. Not too shabby for an unranked team.

@@mikehocking4836 So your guys who didn't care got beat by Michigan's guys that didn't care. It was still a ranked team versus a rebuilding, unranked team. No excuses.
Michigan fan here, but even I can say that I absolutely love the fight in your team. Every season Michigan plays Minnesota I always start watching the game thinking that it could be a trap game for Michigan. I hope your team has an amazing season next time around.
So frustrating as a Michigan fan watching that elitee D and run game get wasted this season without a real QB. Still awesome they beat OSU and Bama again though !
The QB issue will be the big focus for a number of schools next year. A number of teams in the CFP will have QB questions next year. Like GA, TX, ORE, PSU, OSU, ND, and IND. And those teams that just missed are looking to fill the position too. MIA, ALA, MS. It's going to wide open again.
@@niss2142 Especially Alabama. I think if Ty doesn't transfer out to either Clemson or Texas A&M, since those are the only others I've heard him talk about in the past, I'd like to see Simpson (a high 4-star) get his chance to start and then if he doesn't do so good, or as good as Milroe, then I'd like to see Sayin (who is also a 5-star recruit), get his chance. It's about who can lead and win more dominantly. Not who puts up the most stats. Stats are good, especially if they're averaging 3 tds and 300-something yards a game, but wins and how clutch you are in the close wins, are what matter sot me. Even with the disappointing season from Bama, I still think Deboer can go ahead and change some things this offseason. But Milroe needs to go.
All things must pass. I grew up when Bear Bryant was bigger than the Pope in Alabama. Loaded out of a Tuscaloosa Terminal years ago and grown women in the office didn't know who he was.
I’m pulling for Illinois to beat South Carolina , and with Georgia with out Beck will be tough against Notre Dame is also with our their top defensive stud!
Funny how bama fans are acting like they are above Michigan. Michigan owned you with back ups and zero passing game. Our defense shut you out. We own bama.
I didn't, I was afraid of which team would show up. The vs OU team or the vs Goergia team. This was embarrassing enough. I rather us get embarrassed in a useless bowl game then one that counted.
@jaserand6001 what pissed me off was after the blowouts,finebaum and crew was talking is about the committee saying they got it wrong 😤 look at what our teams gave them to pick from 🤣💯LSU Bama Miami. I'm convinced would've all got worked by Ohio State and Penn State at their house 🤣🤷
Ohio State 42 - Tennessee 17 Michigan 19 - Alabama 13 Illinois 21 - South Carolina 17 USC 35 - Texas A&M 31 Keep talking about no bad losses in the SEC because it's so strong top to bottom. SEC! SEC! SEC!!!
Unranked Michigan with none of their quality starters, a backup qb that literally cant throw a ball beat the "we should be in the playoffs!!!" #11 ranked bama squad. 😅😂 Go Blue!!
Yep, good observation. Can't deny the facts. SEC has preformed pitiful, but the Big 10 must be congratulated. All the talk about portals, money, etc. The bottom line is, you must play the game. Now, as far as fan base, it is lost, who really cares. The players are not committed to a school, so you are only cheering for a jersey.
What a nightmare scenario for Paul Finebaum knowing his "love" for Michigan football. Lose to them on the first day of 2024 and on the last day of 2024! Somewhere in LA Jim Harbaugh is having a good laugh at Paul's expense!
"B-B-B-BUT BEATING UNRANKED TEAMS DOESNT MEAN ANYTHING! SMU AND INDIANA SHOULDNT BEEN IN THE PLAYOFFS!" *lost to two 6-6 teams* CLEARLY IT MEANS SOMETHING IF YOU LOSE TO THEM 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Alabama and really all SEC fans have found a way to believe that beating mediocre teams like Ole Miss, South Carolina, Missouri, Texas A&M, Tennessee, etc equates to beating great teams. They have fooled many pollsters into believing this as well.
Y'all had a good W against Michigan earlier in the year. I know Michigan doesn't have an offense but that D held the buckeyes and bama to 23 points! Insane lol
This is the team that everyone whined and cried deserved to be in? CFB fans/media are the absolute worst, this was an all-time gift from the football pantheon!
Actually Michigan's D line and specifically Derrick Moore dominated them...nothing new there...this is a team that has been smashing people's brains in in the trenches for 4 years now...d and o line factory...next in line.
Why is it about which conference is better?? Seriously, the only people that cheer for conferences are the ones who are too insecure to pick a team and stay with them. I personally love being able to laugh at Indiana and Alabama.
@@timebomb42because ESPN acts like the SEC is the best conference in college football and talks trash on the Big Ten. So it’s nice seeing that narrative end.
Never in the history of Bama has that happened and sucks to suck but we landed another Bryce young so enjoy this season cause it’ll be the last for 3 years
I'm not laughing though at their player #50 at about the 12:00 mark in this video. Looks like he tried to step on Michigan's player intentionally. Dirty, trashy behavior.
The media over the past fifteen over so years has demanded that running quarterbacks get a fair shot, but there's no denying that Jalen Milroe cost Alabama this game (and the Rose Bowl last year against Michigan). A quarterback has to be able to throw the ball. Plain and simple. There are some running QBs who can throw the ball decently well, and he's clearly not one of them. Alabama would have won by double digits with a pocket passer at the helm.
@DonovanJohnson-m9e it’s not a coincidence that most running QBs have “garbage” O-Lines…hard to block for a guy when you don’t know whether he’s gonna bail or decide to stay in the pocket (especially if you don’t want holding penalties too)
The biggest problem is wanna be sports writers like you who never played a down crowning teams like bama in the preseason, and having to either double down or create alternative narratives that suit who ever is paying you when things don’t go as expected. Michigan has created a great culture to be in, whereas bama feels like a CoD lobby, and pay to play GOOD. 😂
Bama took a page from Ohio State and said let’s lose as HEAVY Favorites to a “Rebuilding” Michigan team. The Wolverines are looking to be a force to reckon with in 2025. Props to the Maize and Blue 🏈🫡
@@Onetime614 head of ncaa came out shortly after the natty and basically said nothing will happen. Exact words were “Michigan won fair and square without a doubt during the entirety of the 2023 season”
Happens, with a different coach, this is just a new era for Bama. They didn't make it to the playoffs with Saban's first year, I say this is just history repeating itself, which also means I wouldn't write em off entirely like everyone else seems to be doing
A lot of casual fans don’t realize that before Georgia won the 2021 National Championship their last championship win was in 1980. Every big name school goes through droughts, it’s part of football.
Old-head ALA fans do remember. There was a big drop off between The Bear and Saban dynasties. The issue is the jealousy makes the millennials sound a bit childish over their lack of knowing history. They just live for the now. They no nothing from the day they were born.
7-5 but we beat MSU OSU and Bama in the process! Being 15+ underdogs in two of those games? This might be the best season ever of being a mid team. Next year should be better. GO BLUE!
Wild that Michigan played 4 playoff teams, beat one and beat the bubble team that just missed out. While this team wasn't good by any means they definitely had one of the hardest schedules in recent football. I respect them despite them being mid.
Not me. Michigan couldn't move the ball on those turnovers, so I figured they wouldn't be able to sustain drives all game. I was right, but didn't factor in our D performing so well and Milroe stinking so bad.
Sad how the committee spent the entire season fawning over this overrated conference, not even considering teams like BYU for the playoffs because of the patch on their jerseys. This Alabama team would’ve gotten whooped worse than SMU.
Without a doubt this is the result of the nil being in its 4th year and the sec isn't the only ones paying anymore. Its completely obvious they cheated for years and bama was obviously the biggest cheater of all under saban.
@@Pickle_Pete3 Gonna acknowledge how most of Bamas starters were out or does that only work when your trash Texas Tech gets blown out by a superior Arkansas team?
@ Michigan had just as many if not more key players out and are 6-6 and still won 😂. Roll tears roll. Oh but my bad they definitely should’ve made the playoffs right? Big 10> SUC 😂😂
SEC homers last year: "Haha, 63-3, and this is totally the same team that wanted to be in the CFP! I don't care if it was third-stringers vs third-stringers!" SEC homers this year, after Navy and Michigan beat Oklahoma and Bama: "B-b-b-but Oklahoma had opt-outs! Alabama had transfer portal defects! It doesn't matter if Michigan had opt-outs, we totally would've won in the regular season! We're Alabama! We belong in the CFP!" Pick a side, casuals. Bowl games either mean something or they don't. By the way, the committee got it right. Bama and Ole Miss would've been splattered in Happy Valley or South Bend. SMU and Indiama were better teams, period.

I knew there would be excuses like they just didn’t care after getting left out of the playoffs just had no reason to go any farther . Come on Bama people just face the fact they got their butts whooped this year. And two of them by unranked teams.
"Imagine if they had any semblance of a passing game?"
Enter Bryce Underwood
Alabama fans you can skip this one, Milroe didn't do anything you haven't seen him do before.
Bama's biggest asset...Milroe has been a one man team all season. Their biggest liability....Milroe has been a one man team all season. Too late to try using the whole team in a game.
Choke artist
NEXT YEARS MICHIGAN FOOTBALL TEAM SHOULD BE REALLY EXCITING TO WATCH 💯 💯 💯!
But Bama deserved to be in tho right?
Nah 😂
No

Michigan is my new favorite team for today. Any team that beats Alabama is Allright.
You hate bama because they are good, no other reason other than them "getting special treatment" which if they did, they would have made the playoffs. People cry a river over Alabama doing good
@@orcapolice6820they did not do good this year😂 they literally lost to 3 unranked teams THREE! Casual😂
@orcapolice6820 not going to lie, that may be true. And i I don't hate Bama, I just don't like them.
My 2 favorite teams LSU and anyone playing Alabama
@orcapolice6820…I think you are going to find that Kalen DeBoer is over his head. He built his resume at Washington with nfl talent at important decisions. Nick Saban brought those kids there in a pipeline, those days are over for bama. But what should you expect? Dude wasn’t coaching there until he dropped dead
Funny part is Michigan was playing at half strength, theyre offense is terrible and their best defensive players are out, shows how bad Alabama is
Meaningless bowl game dude whocares savvy

@mikehocking4836 Alabama cared more about this meaningless game than Michigan, Michigan had more players not care about the game and opt out
@@mikehocking4836 So your guys who didn't care got beat by Michigan's guys that didn't care. It was still a ranked team versus a rebuilding, unranked team. No excuses.
Everyone’s doggin’ Bama but Michigan deserves immense credit for coming up with a win today.
Even my MN Gophers played Michigan tougher & Michigan actually had their starters against us 😂😂 Bama is a real playoff team though for sure
Michigan fan here, but even I can say that I absolutely love the fight in your team. Every season Michigan plays Minnesota I always start watching the game thinking that it could be a trap game for Michigan.
I hope your team has an amazing season next time around.
BIG 10 is on another level than the SEC. We play real tough football up North unlike those soft southerners 😂
I like pj fleck…he knew Michigan was the real deal….didnt cry cheating. Class
Deboer and Day in same support group.
Bama Soft fr😂
So frustrating as a Michigan fan watching that elitee D and run game get wasted this season without a real QB. Still awesome they beat OSU and Bama again though !
Let’s hope Underwood develops well and we have a solid bounce back season
The QB issue will be the big focus for a number of schools next year. A number of teams in the CFP will have QB questions next year. Like GA, TX, ORE, PSU, OSU, ND, and IND. And those teams that just missed are looking to fill the position too. MIA, ALA, MS. It's going to wide open again.
Ya he's got Vince young potential
@@niss2142 Especially Alabama. I think if Ty doesn't transfer out to either Clemson or Texas A&M, since those are the only others I've heard him talk about in the past, I'd like to see Simpson (a high 4-star) get his chance to start and then if he doesn't do so good, or as good as Milroe, then I'd like to see Sayin (who is also a 5-star recruit), get his chance. It's about who can lead and win more dominantly. Not who puts up the most stats. Stats are good, especially if they're averaging 3 tds and 300-something yards a game, but wins and how clutch you are in the close wins, are what matter sot me.
Even with the disappointing season from Bama, I still think Deboer can go ahead and change some things this offseason. But Milroe needs to go.
@@niss2142Texas will have zero questions at QB next year.
NIck Saban knew how to win by avoiding mistakes. His exceptional ability to play smart and avoid mistakes is easier to appreciate now.
All things must pass. I grew up when Bear Bryant was bigger than the Pope in Alabama. Loaded out of a Tuscaloosa Terminal years ago and grown women in the office didn't know who he was.
COME ON, BIG TEN!!! Thank you, Wolverines!
I’m pulling for Illinois to beat South Carolina , and with Georgia with out Beck will be tough against Notre Dame is also with our their top defensive stud!
@@M4753mNotre dame is one of Michigan's rivals so i cant root for them
@@jeremyeagle212 facts, easier to root for Penn state than it is ND. Sucks that the rivalry isn’t played anymore.
As a michigan fan, and an sec hater, I have to root for the Irish today.
Funny how bama fans are acting like they are above Michigan. Michigan owned you with back ups and zero passing game. Our defense shut you out. We own bama.
Michigan really beat Bama to kick the year off and end the year. How Ironic
I’m also glad we will have a real QB next year
The lifelong series is 2-3 stfu
I am proud of Michigan, in big games they showed up and played.
and again, roll them sweet crimson tears! Good job Michigan 👍🏻
Now imagine this Bama team playing at Happy Valley in December
🙌
😂
They probably would got destroyed worse than SMU
Penn state would have beaten them like red headed step kids lol
The fraud Franklin klin would've found a way to lose! And this is coming from a Pennsylvania Michigan fan!😂😂
Michigan saved cousins, beat the nuts, beat little brother, got the number 1 guy, won a natty, and beat the cousin lovers agian, BEST YEAR OF MY LIFE
That was a great comment! So true and just crazy season!
😂😂😂 Truly an amazing year for Michigan. I like they best the cousins lovers most tho
Where you at Paul Finebaum? Lol!
jumping down the suierslide lol.
Michigan proved, once again that a dominant defensive line is what wins in college football.
The Big 10 is strong this year.
But y'all wanted bama in the playoffs 🤣🫣
I didn't, I was afraid of which team would show up. The vs OU team or the vs Goergia team. This was embarrassing enough. I rather us get embarrassed in a useless bowl game then one that counted.
@jaserand6001 what pissed me off was after the blowouts,finebaum and crew was talking is about the committee saying they got it wrong 😤 look at what our teams gave them to pick from 🤣💯LSU Bama Miami. I'm convinced would've all got worked by Ohio State and Penn State at their house 🤣🤷
Bamas the best lol. At rolling down the bowl
Where is Finebaum?
Heart attack ....near death !
Yet he will still find a way to put Alabama in the CFP
Lol I watched him at his SEC show right after the game... He probably wants to get rid of 2024 ASAP
Whining somewhere on his show tomorrow Alabama beat themselves
Dreaming up something controversial and "clickbaity" to say, I'm guessing.
Ohio State 42 - Tennessee 17
Michigan 19 - Alabama 13
Illinois 21 - South Carolina 17
USC 35 - Texas A&M 31
Keep talking about no bad losses in the SEC because it's so strong top to bottom.
SEC! SEC! SEC!!!
Unranked Michigan with none of their quality starters, a backup qb that literally cant throw a ball beat the "we should be in the playoffs!!!" #11 ranked bama squad. 😅😂
Go Blue!!
Maybe, just maybe, there won't be as many inflated rankings to start the year next year. Doubt it.
Yep, good observation. Can't deny the facts. SEC has preformed pitiful, but the Big 10 must be congratulated. All the talk about portals, money, etc. The bottom line is, you must play the game. Now, as far as fan base, it is lost, who really cares. The players are not committed to a school, so you are only cheering for a jersey.
Now we got Notre Dame 23-Georgia 10
How do you like them apples Paul and ESPN
He just wants you to react and it’s working
@@thebluefus riiight gotta do anything you can to spin something. Hey, how’s it feel to lose to Michigan twice in the same calendar year?
What a nightmare scenario for Paul Finebaum knowing his "love" for Michigan football. Lose to them on the first day of 2024 and on the last day of 2024! Somewhere in LA Jim Harbaugh is having a good laugh at Paul's expense!
“Alabama should’ve been in the playoffs”
*Proceeds to lose another game to an unranked team*
"B-B-B-BUT BEATING UNRANKED TEAMS DOESNT MEAN ANYTHING! SMU AND INDIANA SHOULDNT BEEN IN THE PLAYOFFS!"
*lost to two 6-6 teams*
CLEARLY IT MEANS SOMETHING IF YOU LOSE TO THEM 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
War eagle 🦅 Auburn family regardless but thanks & Alabamas coach is only gonna have less & less talent.......
Alabama and really all SEC fans have found a way to believe that beating mediocre teams like Ole Miss, South Carolina, Missouri, Texas A&M, Tennessee, etc equates to beating great teams. They have fooled many pollsters into believing this as well.
SEC UNDEFEATED in imaginable and hypothetical playoff matchups
Does Finebaum owe the selection committee an apology? I guess Alabama showed they are are still top 25, but not top 12.
He owes everyone who suffered through his biased statements an apology
Great game Michigan Wolverines. 👍

Y'all had a good W against Michigan earlier in the year. I know Michigan doesn't have an offense but that D held the buckeyes and bama to 23 points! Insane lol
HORNS DOWN🤣 FORKS UP🔱
@ good luck today
This is the team that everyone whined and cried deserved to be in? CFB fans/media are the absolute worst, this was an all-time gift from the football pantheon!
That's why they had that wonderful commercial. High Tide 😂.
Jalen Milroe is Michigan’s MVP!
True statement
Actually Michigan's D line and specifically Derrick Moore dominated them...nothing new there...this is a team that has been smashing people's brains in in the trenches for 4 years now...d and o line factory...next in line.
As a Bama, this is one comment I really agree with.
😂😂
If Michigan can take this team to next season and build on and add talent they can go far
But, but, b-b-but, Alabama! They deserved to be in the Playoff! Paul Finebaum kept telling me so!

Underrated comment!!
Must be a MAGA thing you refer to.
The committee got the selection RIGHT!
Agreed.
Anyone who says otherwise is delusional
Only delusional SEC fans disagree
They sure did.
I wonder what the excuse is now for only scoring 13 points 🎯
Ask Saban! He’ll know!
If Milroe didn’t turn that ball over smh. Both offenses were just held by the defense all day. Props to Michigan but Jesus milroe needs to go.
The field was wet......hahaha

Maybe. They do have some great teams, but we will see.
Why is it about which conference is better??
Seriously, the only people that cheer for conferences are the ones who are too insecure to pick a team and stay with them.
I personally love being able to laugh at Indiana and Alabama.
@@timebomb42 Because dumb a--- sec fans always made it about conference when they were paying players 15 years before it was called "nil"
Completely unbiased opinion from a ND fan, they are like equal, no gap
@@timebomb42because ESPN acts like the SEC is the best conference in college football and talks trash on the Big Ten. So it’s nice seeing that narrative end.
Bama following the footsteps of FSU going 2-10 next season
If Milroe stays you’re spot on, because their top players will leave.
Never in the history of Bama has that happened and sucks to suck but we landed another Bryce young so enjoy this season cause it’ll be the last for 3 years
The wolverines are going to be tough to beat next season. They have a good coach.
This was basically next years defense so should be good there again. Hopefully the last time we have to watch this offense too which is a plus.
@@barnuner They need a new QB for sure. I can see Michigan winning the college football playoffs championship next season. They have the DNA.

Bahahaha
@@hawkeyeten2450typical from an SEC school
I love Alabama, when they're not playing Georgia. 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Proof that the SEC and Bama aren't the same without Saban
The media over the past fifteen over so years has demanded that running quarterbacks get a fair shot, but there's no denying that Jalen Milroe cost Alabama this game (and the Rose Bowl last year against Michigan). A quarterback has to be able to throw the ball. Plain and simple. There are some running QBs who can throw the ball decently well, and he's clearly not one of them. Alabama would have won by double digits with a pocket passer at the helm.
Uhhh no. That doesn't matter if your O line can't block a soul.
@DonovanJohnson-m9e it’s not a coincidence that most running QBs have “garbage” O-Lines…hard to block for a guy when you don’t know whether he’s gonna bail or decide to stay in the pocket (especially if you don’t want holding penalties too)
@@kang5842 100% correct. I'm just saying that UM d line got to milroe in like a second.
The biggest problem is wanna be sports writers like you who never played a down crowning teams like bama in the preseason, and having to either double down or create alternative narratives that suit who ever is paying you when things don’t go as expected. Michigan has created a great culture to be in, whereas bama feels like a CoD lobby, and pay to play GOOD. 😂
@@RobbieStacks90 you have 0 football knowledge just say you hate colored qbs
Bama took a page from Ohio State and said let’s lose as HEAVY Favorites to a “Rebuilding” Michigan team. The Wolverines are looking to be a force to reckon with in 2025. Props to the Maize and Blue 🏈🫡
They won't be playing for anything meaningful next season after sanctions drop. Did you forget that they got caught cheating.

This was a hard hitting game

And they have a big-time quarterback coming in next year.
A lot of people beat Bama this year. Don't put too much on that. OSU otoh...
He is a good coach but makes a couple bad calls a game. The time out in the first half was a bad choice.
Lamar Jackson IS a quarterback
Kyler Murray IS a quarterback
Jalen Milroe IS a runningback
Kyler Murray a quarterback??
Lol kyler murray plays qb?
Back to back big wins by Michigan 👏🏾🔥
I'm here for the roasting😂
ALA fans just remember that a lot of programs go through a drought of not winning a National Championship. It's just your turn.
I hope its for over 1000 years lol
Happens, with a different coach, this is just a new era for Bama. They didn't make it to the playoffs with Saban's first year, I say this is just history repeating itself, which also means I wouldn't write em off entirely like everyone else seems to be doing
A lot of casual fans don’t realize that before Georgia won the 2021 National Championship their last championship win was in 1980. Every big name school goes through droughts, it’s part of football.
Old-head ALA fans do remember. There was a big drop off between The Bear and Saban dynasties. The issue is the jealousy makes the millennials sound a bit childish over their lack of knowing history. They just live for the now. They no nothing from the day they were born.
That has gotta be one of the most physical games of college football I've seen in a while.
7-5 but we beat MSU OSU and Bama in the process! Being 15+ underdogs in two of those games? This might be the best season ever of being a mid team. Next year should be better. GO BLUE!
Best 8 win team ever?
@ ya I realized after posting this I messed that up
Great finish to the season !! Underachievers during the meat of your schedule!😢
Wild that Michigan played 4 playoff teams, beat one and beat the bubble team that just missed out. While this team wasn't good by any means they definitely had one of the hardest schedules in recent football. I respect them despite them being mid.
saw the score when the Wolverines went up 16-0. I knew it was over lol
Not me. Michigan couldn't move the ball on those turnovers, so I figured they wouldn't be able to sustain drives all game. I was right, but didn't factor in our D performing so well and Milroe stinking so bad.
@@riverraisin1 i was worried too, when it was 16-0 it should have been 28-0
Big Ten won 3 times today. Best conference in college football.
Sad how the committee spent the entire season fawning over this overrated conference, not even considering teams like BYU for the playoffs because of the patch on their jerseys. This Alabama team would’ve gotten whooped worse than SMU.
I agree
Without a doubt this is the result of the nil being in its 4th year and the sec isn't the only ones paying anymore. Its completely obvious they cheated for years and bama was obviously the biggest cheater of all under saban.
I hope this settles it. Although losing badly, SMU and Indiana were rightfully in the playoffs.

SEC homers last year: "Haha, 63-3, and this is totally the same team that wanted to be in the CFP! I don't care if it was third-stringers vs third-stringers!"

Pick a side, casuals. Bowl games either mean something or they don't.
By the way, the committee got it right. Bama and Ole Miss would've been splattered in Happy Valley or South Bend. SMU and Indiama were better teams, period.
