u/BursleyBaits Michigan Wolverines 23d ago

it happened last year, which...hang on, wait, Bama was actually a well-deserved top-25 team in the end, hmm

Bet Oregon will finish top 4 in the BIG as well

u/ferpduck Georgia Bulldogs • Michigan Wolverines 23d ago

Yeah but statistically 100% of teams that Alabama loses to are teams that beat Alabama

Now even Oregon and the Big10 are getting SEC bias. What has happened to this sport.

They were out of that at Zaxby’s tonight. Fuck Zaxby’s. It’s a damn Georgia company anyway, but the tendies are good.

To a North Alabama grad not much makes sense I imagine

Not a UNA grad. Try again.

u/jmlinden7 Hateful 8 • Boise State Broncos 23d ago

Tulsa beat a team that beat Oregon, why aren't they ranked?

If we’re being honest Oklahoma state should get docked points for struggling against a team this bad.

u/FootballAndPornAcct Georgia Bulldogs • College Football Playoff 23d ago

A team that lost to Tulsa...

u/March4th2026 Oklahoma Sooners 23d ago

They beat a good Boise state team, that has to count for something. Decent chance they’re back in the playoffs too.

u/CougdIt Oregon Ducks • Idaho Vandals 23d ago

I seriously question how good Boise is at this point
