I'm assuming you have no "rabid disdain" for Vols fans either??Exactly this. It would happen if they expanded football to 64 like the basketball tourney. Someone's feelings are going to get hurt.
Why other fan bases get so bent out of shape when it wasn't even their team who supposedly got "wronged" is what blows my mind.
Must be because, in this particular instance, it's Alabama that got in. There is a rabid disdain for all things Alabama since the new streak to 16 straight wins over the VFLs began back in October.
Next year is y'all's year…..just like the previous 26 have been.
The old undefeated no matter the schedule. That has been proven to be wrong.
Why was Florida St ranked ahead of bama then? 8th to 4th over undefeated team? yeah right happens all the time
Hence the problem. I understand that Florida St was ahead of ALABAMA in the Rankings because of their record and why.
BDS East.
Too Funny.
So if the rankings don't show the best teams until the last one of the year, then why have them at all? I thought they ranked teams throughout the year by how good they are? And what crystal ball did you use to clearly see that Alabama would beat OSU, FSU and Oregon in head to head play? You just assumed that because you have a front seat on the Alabama band wagon.
From a fans prospective yeah, now go tell the players on Fla St
I'm assuming Michigan or FSU fans would love to watch the matchup. Man you have a twisted way of looking at things. Are you really that stupid?
It's all for show. Drama = more excitement. Most every college player is on scholarship for an education and a maybe a chance to make bigger money in bigger leagues. Either way they are covered for their future. Especially now with NIL deals. They are entertainers getting paid for putting on a show to the audiences. And the ringmasters sure know how to get people pumped and riled up. They've made diehard generational fans out of people that live and breath these college teams successes that never even went to that college, nor paid a dime of tuition at it. I like watching the games but at the same time...I'd be just fine if I never got to see another one. My whole life isn't centered around it like some people's.
I think Bama's ranking should not have stayed at 8 in the final weeks. We can agree on that. Undefeated does not mean they are the best team. That has been proven. Beating the number one team matters. Just so happened Alabama had that opportunity. Sometimes that can be a curse as well.
Not VFLs that live in reality.
. So I guess that reality is VFL's will always be inferior to bammers? So Vol fans are just supposed to accept that they're inferior? So it's unrealistic to hope that one day the Vols will wipe their ass with bama?
