They caused Alabama to make mistake after mistake. They are a great team. Should be a good game again against Georgia.

Perhaps, Capt Gregory Prickett, but the game was still no cakewalk! BTW, who overrated them? They were number one in the CFP rankings, the Football Power Index, the AP and Coaches polls, the Sagarin Ratings, and they were the oddsmakers' favorites. Was every ranking and rating system wrong?

LTC Stephen C. - yup. There is an inherent bias for the SEC and 'Bama. Even now Saben is making a pitch for his team to still get into the playoffs. I'm sorry, but they just don't have the resume to do so. They played Florida State (5-6), Fresno State (9-3), Colorado State (7-5), and Mercer (5-6, FCS) for their out of conference schedule.
In any event, the key game to keeping Alabama out of the CFP is the Big Ten Championship Game, not the SEC game.
