    I agree with you, but the Saban factor is what lures voters in. I also think they win out in their conference, they are home for the remaining games.

    'Bama struggled vs. Arkansas and got a free pass as well.

    Yes, I see. All the rest of Bama's games are home. That is a big help to them.

    OK, here is a question: If Saban is such a darn good coach.....why was he a failure at Michigan St. and with the Dolphins?

    I guess maybe they did. But I wasn't watching that game.

    I think his style is more suited for college than the NFL. He knows he has the kids for 4 years, and they have to buy in to his program to see the field.

    Maybe at MSU he was losing the recruiting battle to Lloyd Carr, possibly Notre Dame as well. I'm not a Saban fan, but he made a great career move by heading south. He basically used his LSU stint to pad a resume, then after Miami he got the biggest coaching gig in the south ('Bama).

    I could be wrong here, but my hunch is the history of Alabama football is a big draw to athletes in the south (I know they struggled for years after Bear Bryant, firing coaches constantly).

    The SEC and Bama also condone waaay more bending or flat out breaking of the rules. Recruiting isn't that hard when you have bagmen and you can recruit 5 classes every four years.
