Peter Burns on Bama Being Ranked Above TN

[JoAllan]

I’ve never seen someone on a vol forum work this hard for OsU it’s bizzare point is if Tn had lost by 21 at home they would have dropped further that’s my belief , I’ve never made arguments about the other three you’ve brought those in yourself

Where did I work for OSU?

Maybe I’m against idiots?

just go watch replay of blow out to SC and be quiet! We're lucky to be ranked as high as we are! Alabama gave up a game losing field goal in the last 16 second drive to lose to Vols then afterwards they took care of business! We got nothing to complain about in regards to Alabama!

Other than that next loss they had to a team we beat by roughly 18 touchdowns.

TN with Hooker better than Bama. TN without Hooker ? Without the man that got us to this point, I say we should be happy to be 6th or 7th.

I say we strip Ohio State of that national championship they had a few years ago. Never should have been allowed into the playoffs with their third string QB starting.

If Bama gets in they'll win it all.

Disagree. UGA would beat them.

Disagree. UGA would beat them.

Hey thats a Saban Bama fan no use arguing . Thats why no one was responding to it .

So Bama's best win is Texas, and they are 3 possessions away from having three more losses. Makes total sense to rank them ahead of a Tennessee team with the same record and a head to head win

Lol, good catch. It's conference championships.

I assume this means current year, right? Does anybody know the source to see the criteria online? Post the address.

I saw just about the same thing on Bama board it said guys just replay our games vs Texas and A&M we are lucky to be where we and not saddled w/4 L's to TN, LSU TX & A&M. Could be the worst year since Shula without the refs. Do you post on that site.

Well let's go fact based. Bama beat Vandy by 50 at home, we beat them by 56 at Vandy AND without Hooker. Yet another data point in our favor.

Be prepared to see the Vols drop in the final CFP poll while Bama and OSU move up a spot. Will not be surprised to see Vols go down from 7 to 10. CLEMSON, KANSAS ST, and UTAH are all conference champs and USC could stay ahead of us. Amazingly conference championships won or lost will matter except for their impact to Bama and Ohio St. Doesn't take the Vols out of the Orange Bowl but I honestly believe we drop and Penn St drops.
5. Bama
6. Clemson
7. K ST
8. Utah
9. USC
10. Tennessee
