We may not get through the first quarter.

We may not get through the first quarter.

And that's stretching it...

If Bama wins out, I hope his "Nightmare scenario" comes true.

Bama doesn't deserve to be in the playoffs. Their biggest "win" was massively rigged for them on TSIO by Birmingham officials and those officials' supervisors. The video evidence is conclusive.

I really hope some non-SEC team who can't be threatened into silence by Birmingham says it publicly and shows the evidence.

Could you make this opponent-adjusted? Would be interested.

*not that our road opponents so far have exactly been offensive juggernauts, just curious*

I’ll have to look at the data schema and see if I have anything for rankings or see if there is another data schema that has it I can combine it with. I know I also have access to some team composite rankings and SP+ data so maybe can take that to use. It makes sense. The only other team running into UGA and Bama yearly is Auburn, I believe.

I still can't say it was 'rigged' but there certainly is an issue with officiating. I'm still stuck on the fact that Bama had only 1 penalty for 5 yards in that game. Officiating is terrible and we desperately need a grading system and a lot more transparency. Beyond that, Bama has not looked good this year and just doesn't deserve to be in the playoffs.

We ain’t losing to Misery..period!!

I'll just say if you smoke as many marijuanas as that post count, you will have died 1,000 times over.

The game thread is amazing(ly awful). Half of all coaches are fired before the first drive is over. Then we go on to win 59-3

I’m not on board with the “the SEC hates us and is trying to keep us down!” victim card that some propagate on here, but Bama absolutely receives preferential treatment that borders in rigged. When you play Bama, you gotta beat Bama and their friends in the stripes. Been that way for years with them.

We could all stop hiding our kids and wives.

That was so fun!

Well, as I have stated, there was no effective difference between the way Birmingham called that game and what a rigged game would look like. I don't have an opinion on the "backstory." The facts simply don't lend themselves to any exculpatory interpretation. None.

Don't forget to add that lone "penalty" called on Bama had the effect of bailing them out of a bad snap. In effect, it penalized us.

I said some version of this earlier in the season, but now that we’re on the back nine, it’s worth taking the time to admire:

It’s amazing.

 

[Devo182]

It’s amazing.

And next year it all comes together from both sides

This is all @Weezer 's fault. He should give up his own testicle this time. Besides, my are just too big to give away.
