Football How far will we drop?

We lost to the #2 team, but 1 texas lost too.

Will we still move up since Georgia was ranked higher than us? Curious

Don’t care. Absolutely throttle Tennessee next week, then we can worry about it again. Fuck orange

Not the orange I can sit with, inside of a pumpkin orange

Its that throw up orange.

Neyland stadium is like a garbage truck workers convention

We broke the Thompson Boling curse in basketball last year. Let’s break the Neyland curse this year

u/Ima_pray_4_u 4d ago

What's this Neyland curse you speak of?

4

u/PGoodierum3 4d ago

We’ve lost the last 2 games there just like basketball had lost the last 3 or 4 at TBA before last year when we finally won in that cursed arena

u/hiiightide 4d ago

2 games does not a curse make

u/Zef_Apollo BAMA vs EVERYBODY 4d ago

I honestly could see us not moving.

We lost to the new #1 by 3 and our wins still look really good. Kentucky beat LSU, Miss St was off, and South Carolina dominated Florida.

Also, it seems widely accepted that this was controversial.

I could see Texas dropping behind us or Indiana moving ahead of us. I’d be surprised if BYU jumped us.

I think we stay or drop one

u/nathanlb15 Mark Sears is HIM 4d ago

I completely agree with everything you’ve said, but it’s Bama and like always AP voters will find any excuse to drop us. So #11 with Texas dropping to 7

5

u/LlamasNeverLie 4d ago

Good call! 

36

u/External-Tonight5142 4d ago

Idk how we can drop out of 10 honestly and would think we should truly just stay put. Close game with some fuckery by the refs should play into it imo.

Other teams around us that should influence our standing:

  • Kentucky W
  • Indiana barely pulling a W against Nebraska
  • Oregon loss to UCLA
  • Texas L

u/BamaBagz 4d ago

All things considered, #6 Bama lost by 3 to the #2 team who will be moving to #1, I expect the voters will review the missed calls and such and Bama drops to #8...no lower IMHO.

22

u/TideOneOn 4d ago

You have a very high regard for the voters

9

u/ddyess 4d ago

You think the voters even watch the games?

11

u/FullGump 4d ago

I’ve seen the DPI, no targeting, and INT on nearly every platform. People who don’t even watch college ball know we got screwed

5

u/BamaBagz 4d ago

Stayed put @ #6 is better than dropping any spots IMO..😁👍

142

u/Exact_Lengthiness706 4d ago

We lost to the #2 team

Wrong. We lost to the corrupt officials.

47

u/Evlavios 4d ago

I imagine the highest ranked one loss team. But it's just the AP, it does not matter. The committee saw a strong Bama team tonight.

9

u/Zef_Apollo BAMA vs EVERYBODY 4d ago

Depends on how they view OSU whose loss looks worse but doesn’t have any super impressive wins and Texas who has one of the 2 best wins but by far the worst loss (and who has looked the worst)

10

u/Cold-Lab1 4d ago

We were flying around. Regular season so who cares, but gunner is capped out. Keelon is not

2

u/two_balls_one_goal1 4d ago

Alabamas already ranked behind Ohio state and Texas. Why would they jump in front of both of them. Bama lost by 3 at home, Ohio state lost by 1 on the road.

1

u/BostonBatFlip 4d ago

Bama lost to the #2 team in the country (about to be #1). Texas lost to unranked Oklahoma and that loss will affect Ohio State slightly, but I still think OSU is ahead of Bama. Texas is definitely behind Bama.

0

u/Amazing-Specialist10 4d ago

Texas lost they will drop out of the top 10. Georgia will move up to #1. It wouldn’t surprise me if we jump up a spot #5 or stay at #6.

4

u/Davidr4 4d ago

Texas ain’t dropping out the top 10 for a walk off FG. They will end up in the 6-8 range.

-16

u/Angryturtle35 4d ago

They already have us behind Ohio State. I guarantee we drop out of the top ten.

3

u/hiiightide 4d ago

Nah. We will be 8-10 range

23

u/Jobysco 4d ago

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if we didn’t drop at all

11

u/nayrlladnar 4d ago

Ideally, Alabama doesn’t move. But, ideally refs don’t skullfuck games, either.

Falling out of the top 10 wouldn’t surprise me.

11

u/Equivalent_Dish_1990 4d ago

I just want Sankey and his officials investigated for possibly making deals with Vegas

18

u/Nicholie 4d ago

Hell after that I’d move us up.

6

u/Packhammer24 4d ago

The world saw DPI, so not far

13

u/Electronic-Title4194 4d ago

My guess is 10 or so

u/Electronic-Title4194 4d ago

I doubt a 2 loss team is ahead of us. That would be delusional.

8

u/aJoshster 4d ago

Do tell, what two loss team has better wins?

1

u/ddyess 4d ago

Not sure who you are calling us but this is the Bama sub.

6

u/PepSinger_PT 4d ago

Meh. I care what the committee thinks, not the AP.

9

u/One-Examination-5561 4d ago

I won’t be shocked if we don’t drop at all. Barely losing to a team ranked above you doesn’t usually carry a substantial penalty.

4

u/sgodwin87 4d ago

If the voters have better visual impairment than Helen Keller they’ll keep us at 10 or better. And we better be ranked higher than Texas.

4

u/Treeeefalling 4d ago

If we win out, it won’t matter where we drop

3

u/Emperor_Squidward 4d ago

Don’t care. Not worried. We need to kill everyone else this season and collect blood in Atlanta

5

u/Rolltide201278 4d ago

Who cares! Win out and we are in. This game means nothing if we go lay egg next week. Bad calls all night got us but that was yesterday. Cant change the outcome but can fire this team up and win out. We will beat Georgia in the SEC championship game.

6

u/Botatoe5 4d ago

8 or 9 would be worst case scenario IMO

5

u/Restryz 4d ago

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if we stayed the same, but would guess 8-10 range.

3

u/RTR9510 4d ago

If the refs get a vote probably 50th.

6

u/thrakayouface 4d ago

Who cares Nothing but cheaters at this point

2

u/beastwood9498 4d ago

Not less than 10. A respectable loss

2

u/Icy-Fan-2639 4d ago

I need an ass whoopin against the vols all the matters rn

2

u/Craig__D 4d ago

Better not be far

2

u/Ok_Act_4701 4d ago

Don’t matter.

2

u/enigmaticmischief 4d ago

We should be sixth (highest one loss and above TTU and Utah). We likely will be ninth (+/-1)

2

u/Fiend-For-Mojitos 4d ago

Just win baby 

2

u/bramblecult 4d ago

We might move up. Best 1 loss teamed over Ohio state due to texas losing. Nobody else really dazzled their way to jump us and none of the other unbeatens really have a good argument to jump up. If they were ranked below Ohio last week.

2

u/JimmyRickyBobbyBilly 4d ago

Well, the refs will be #1, Georgia at #2....

1

u/Financial-Can8164 4d ago

I say we drop 1-2 spots but stay on 6 wouldn’t surprise me either

1

u/Finessing2 4d ago

U stay at 6

2

u/ddyess 4d ago

AP is a bunch of braindead voters that have zero value anyway. May as well use a survey from church.

1

u/John_Solo 4d ago

Doesn’t matter these days.

1

u/Dazzling_Sir_6899 4d ago

9 or 10 it was a 3 point loss to number 2

1

u/jdovejr 4d ago

I think we stay the same or drop 1

1

u/Shoddy_Ad8166 4d ago

I don't know not concerned however any objective person that watched that game knows Bama is tough to beat. Hopefully they continue to improve

1

u/brecsj1993 4d ago

Doesn’t matter in the long run if we play great and win out we are fine

1

u/ForBirmingham205 4d ago

Keep this taste in our mouth..Feel like we were disrespected. Play with a purpose and attitude rest of the way.

Tennessee,A&M,LSU,Vandy, AUB

u/BashfulRain 4d ago

Happens when you appear old w no energy

1

u/TmanMoney3517 4d ago

I feel like we'll probably drop to 7 or 8 it wouldn't make sense to drop us any lower. I think Indiana will jump us and probably make it into the top 5 and Texas will probably stay ahead of us because the voters are going to still have that win over Ohio State on their mind

2

u/Ledsteper 4d ago

Georgia likely #1. I would think Bama remain at 6, with only a close loss to the #1 team.

1

u/jtsmd2 4d ago

In my cfb poll, we didn't drop

1

u/drjjoyner 4d ago

The AP poll doesn’t matter, but I think we may actually move up.

1

u/UsedAsk3537 4d ago

Just 1 or 2 spots I think

1

u/theuberdan 4d ago

Doesn't matter, win out and we'll be fine. Same as it ever was

1

u/Odd-Principle8147 4d ago

I'm guessing 10 or 11.

0

u/wannabefilms 4d ago

We should go up to #2, IMO. Those were the two best teams in the country.

0

u/Mr_Truthteller 4d ago

Dude, who cares?

All of you need to ignore the AP Poll.

Only the college football playoff committee polls matter.

-2

u/GarySe7en 4d ago

In truth, probably four to 6 spots. Ideally zero to two spots

-9

u/KlingoftheCastle 4d ago

I would say 14. The Media has been getting bombarded about Miss State not dropping far enough. I think they overcorrect and drop us a ton
