<p>Not really though. Considering the narrowness of the losses apparently means nothing to you. The fact that Retard Les Miles showed up to cost them the Auburn game (people that actually watch college football will know what I'm talking about; as for you, look it up) is important. Holding Alabama's offense to 10 points is something no one else has even come close to doing.  They destroyed an Arkansas team that just steamrolled Florida, who is a P5 division winner. They ran away with the game against Ole Miss, which is a team that played top 15 FSU close and played Bama really close. They're going to gang rape A&amp;M, whatever that's worth. So they finish with 3 losses, all to top 15 teams, two of which a fired coach is responsible for.</p>

<p>But yeah, some undefeated group of 5 team is obviously better because "look at their record." You're a football layman.</p>
