    I think we saw Saturday that the chances of losing that OOC game are not at all mitigated by it being later in the year.

    Well, sure, when your out of conference game is a cupcake.

    The thing is though.....Alabama, unlike Florida with FSU, Georgia with Ga. Tech. South Carolina with Clemson, Kentucky with Louisville and maybe a couple of others, do not have a mandated game against an in state rival.

    Their instate rival is in their conference, that situation allows them basically to schedule another OOC cupcake.

    TAMU bugged out of their big in state rival game....though it would be nice to see the TU-TAMU game again on Thanksgiving weekend, which used to be a big tradition.

    I did make a mistake in that sentence.....I left something out. I meant to say "Unlike Florida, S. Caro. Georgia, KY......Alabama does not have a statute mandated game against an in state out of conference Power5 opponent.

    Hopefully that clarifies what I meant to say.

    For some states, their big in state rivals are part of their conference: Alabama/Auburn, Mississippi/Miss. St., Tennessee/Vandy

    The Pac 10 in state rivals all also play Saturday: USC/UCLA Wash/WSU Ore/OSU, Ariz/ASU

    It is rivalry week in the Big Ten too. Some are in state: Indiana/Purdue, Illinois/NW, out of state: Iowa/Nebraska....which I consider a pretty good natural rivalry. I am not sure but I think Wisc/Minn.

    To be honest, Alabama has no business playing against 'Charlston Southern' whoever the fuck they are. 7 TDs in the first half says as much as you need to know about that. Or Louisiana-munroe, or any of those no-name schools. Same goes for basically every team that's trying to win the championship. They're basically exhibition games and are pointless.

    Schedule games against competitive teams so that the 'objective' playoff rankings actually mean something and are based on something besides "well OSU only scored 8 TDs this week and Alabama scored 9, so we're swapping them round"

    Ohio State played Northern Illinois, Western Michigan and the mighty Rainbow Warriors of Hawaii 3 of the first 4 games, smh

    Those teams are all very much on a higher standard than Charleston Southern. They are all FBS, CSU is FCS.

    They all stink. Playing The Little Sisters of the Poor as opposed to Rochester School for the Blind isn't a difference

    Bama will always look good against teams like Sparty. That's what they're designed to stop.

    I fully expect Clemson with a healthy Shaq to beat Bama.

    Actually, The SEC untill today is doing pretty well (3-1) in bowl games. Florida has no QB so Treon Harris will make sure they get hammered. And I'm not sure Tenn beats NW..

    So when Clemson clubs Bama, will the Tide get a pass because the Tigers are a 'southern' team?

    Msu was not the best in the conference by a long shot. OSU had a terrible game vs them. That was more about us than them.

    Another day of "Myth" dominance in 2015/16 bowls with the exception of my Gators who have been one dimensional since Will Grier torpedoed the season and Treon Harris sucked the life out of the team.....

    How did the mighty Big fraud fare today?

    Let's recap...

    The SEC is 6-2 including a loss by my Gators whom should not have been in any bowl game after the loss of their DUMBASS QB Will Grier.. Tex A&M is the other loss and I'm still trying to figure out how that school isn't in the Big12 where it belongs

    The Big Fraud,, err, 10 is 5-4 including a win over my Gators that should have bowed out of any bowl game..

    So, we look at the playoffs.. Is there an SEC team involved in the Championship game? Why Yes.. Yes there is.. The hated fucking Alabama Crimson Tide.. 😡

    Is there a Big Fraud team involved? Well No.. No there isn't because your conference champion Michigan State Spartans got force-ably throated by the a fore mentioned hated Crimson Tide.. Geezus, did they even sniff a score? 😳

    Now, as expected the Butteye apologists are claiming they got fucked and should have been the rightful representatives of the Big fraud conference despite the fact that they didn't even win their side of the fraud conference because they lost at HOME to a backup QB.. Yeah, they got schlonged 😆

    7 of the last 9 national champs are SEC schools... The two NC championship game losers in that stretch were SEC schools..

    So, even if Bama loses to Clemson.. that will mean the SEC has won 7 of the last 10.. And were the losers of the other three...

    But hey, I think you twinks are on to something with this mythology bullshit here 😆😁

    Actually the SEC on CBS is a national broadcast. They were on it last week in a top 20 matchup which they won by 3+ touchdowns. They were also on it against A&M about a month ago. Both of those in addition to the LSU game. I believe they've been on it one or two other times this year as well. You don't see them because you don't want to see them. And that's fine, no one's putting a gun to your head to make you watch them, I just don't understand why you then come here and opine about them so strongly.

    My high school runs a spread. I suppose that means it'd be interesting to watch them play Bama too?

    All that said, Clemson-Bama should be an interesting game.
