Top 25 matchups are always exciting but there’s something special about two G6 teams going at it on a random Wednesday night

I get why Bama being so far above Tennessee is a story, but just like with Miami/ND last year, if both teams finish 10-2, Tennessee will finish above Alabama.

(And they'll both be safely in.)

@zachTNT Undeniably better wins?

[Kev | CFB Embedded @CFBembedded]

@splintrdcell @AriWasserman You bring up an interesting point. When talking about Alabama/Tennessee we often forget the Texas Tennessee game happened and they also have two losses. Texas has two of the worst losses of the 3, which I believe plays into Alabama being the leader of the 2 loss pack.

@CaptHobbit88 @AriWasserman Teams that have a first round bye in their CFP are 1-7, if anything it hurts Alabama to be this high

[College Football Nerds @CFBNerds]

I feel like I've spent the last week defending Alabama, but...
1) There is a very clear power rating order between Alabama (FPI 3, FEI 4) -> Texas (7, 6) -> Tennessee (9, 11).
2) There is a very clear SOS order between Alabama (FPI 1, FEI 1) -> Texas (11, 2) -> Tennessee (23, 27).
3) There is a very clear SOR order between Alabama (FPI 5, FEI 1) -> Texas (9, 2) -> Tennessee (12, 15).

There is little doubt that Alabama should be ranked ahead of Texas. They aren't in the same ranking/rating "pool" as Tennessee, and Tennessee can't jump Texas.

If you look at literally anything other than "but Tennessee beat Alabama," when comparing teams with multiple losses and tons of ranked wins, Alabama clearly should be ranked ahead of Texas and Tennessee.

@ItsTorTor11 I would say it’s likely, the committee has shown they’re willing to do it when they put SMU in over Bama a while back

[Kev | CFB Embedded @CFBembedded]

@NicoleAuerbach I think it’s flawed but I also don’t majorly disagree with the rankings. In fact I love this year’s rankings.

My biggest issue is probably Alabama over Tennessee but I get their explanation.

[Kev | CFB Embedded @CFBembedded]

There’s 25 teams in the CFP ranking and the only thing anybody cares about is where Alabama is 😂

[Kev | CFB Embedded @CFBembedded]

I agree and like I said I would have Tennessee ahead of Bama but at the same time I’m not mad at the committee’s explanation of the ranking nor do I think it’s that crazy. To me there are two schools of thought on this issue and both are equally valid. I honestly believe this has been some of the best rankings the Committee has put out over the years

[Kev | CFB Embedded @CFBembedded]

Nothing but facts stated here

[Waaaay Offsides Cotton @AlafrigginBama]

It’s hilarious that we’re three seasons removed from Nick Saban and Bama Fatigue from other fanbases is still a thing.

[Kev | CFB Embedded @CFBembedded]

@dannykanell Like I’ve said on other posts. The hyper focus on Bama is getting old. Whether you have Tennessee over Bama or not I still have Bama top 5. It’s not that crazy that they’re number 3.

Regardless, get into the top 12 and you’re fine

[Kev | CFB Embedded @CFBembedded]

@ESisson7 As a Bama fan I agree. I personally would have Tennessee ahead of us because I believe H2H should matter especially when you’re that close in ranking but the explanation they give isn’t the worst.

Overall I’ve really liked this year’s CFP rankings

[Kev | CFB Embedded @CFBembedded]

New CFP Poll 👀👀👀

[Kev | CFB Embedded @CFBembedded]

@On3 @CFBHeather I wish CFB fans had the strength to boycott. I wouldn’t watch a single game next year if there was a real movement behind it

[Kev | CFB Embedded @CFBembedded]

@NCAAPortal This is also only his 3rd year, it takes time to get a program bought in especially following a coach like Saban

[Kev | CFB Embedded @CFBembedded]

@CapstoneCowboy Playing the SEC championship is a huge honor but its just one more game for players to get injured in so I see both sides.

That said I would love for Bama to be a part of what’s probably the last SEC championship.

@SavFrench @davidadamcone @JoshPateCFB @crainandcone @JakeCrain_ @Blain_Crain @On3 Love it! RTR 🐘
