Top 10 Most Passionate NFL Fanbases. I’m not wrong.

[Chad Withrow @TheChadWithrow]

They have wins over #3 and #11. They lost to #6 and #17 by a COMBINED 6 points. Their schedule is as beneficial as it could be for the SEC but they still have to go to A&M (never easy) and play LSU. The question is will committee start docking Bama for finishing with Vandy, Chattanooga, and Auburn??? I doubt it.

[Ari Wasserman @AriWasserman]

This is the same shit they did with Notre Dame and Miami last year. Same exact thing.

Use all the metrics in the world available to you, deemphasize the game that happened between the two teams in question.

This one is worse, too, because Tennessee beat the crap out of Alabama.

CFP Committee STILL Getting It Wrong?! Alabama vs Tennessee Debate + NFL... https://t.co/rQBgBrQzho via @YouTube

[Chad Withrow @TheChadWithrow]

@frankie7soy Yep. Tennessee has 10 players lost for the season. Most in SEC.

[Chad Withrow @TheChadWithrow]

So Tennessee gets a pass this upcoming weekend considering they just lost their sack leader for the season and their starting Tight End on Saturday??? Is that how this works now????

[Ashton @AshtonChap17]

@TheChadWithrow @BigYikes81 Bama was not the same team they were again Georgia. They got injured in multiple areas on the team but defense and Ryan Williams were the main issue along with the starting center and RT

Indiana had a rough bye week according to the CFB Playoff Committee.

[Chad Withrow @TheChadWithrow]

Alabama is a win over Vandy away from the committee putting them at #1.

[Bill Martin @Bill_Martin]

There are 138 FBS teams. Currently, there is only one RB in America who leads his team in total offense. DeSean Bishop. Not since 1971 has Tennessee had a RB/HB/FB lead his team in total offense (Curt Watson).

SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey says the SEC isn't ready to roll out a behind-the-scenes look into their instant replay system - like many of the other FBS conferences have already done. He also chastised ESPN's announcers for being critical of SEC officials.

@HuttOnAir & @TheChadWithrow give their take on Sankey's comments.

Interesting

Lane Kiffin is all about Lane Kiffin. It’s why he trots out Kevin Costner in a pregame fashion show. Culture still matters. I don’t think he cares at all about the culture of his teams.

[Chad Withrow @TheChadWithrow]

I’m proposing a system for Promotion and Relegation for CFB officials. Ex: David Smith’s crew gets banished to the Sun Belt and Sun Belt’s best crew gets promoted to SEC. Thoughts????

[Chad Withrow @TheChadWithrow]

@FFz0mbie South Carolina beat Tennessee with a walk-off FG. Tennessee beat Bama by 16 and was taking a knee to end the game. It’s not just if you are beat. It’s how you are beat.

Tennessee CRUSHES Kentucky, Alabama BLASTS LSU & Georgia DOMINATES Ole Miss https://t.co/06SznsHuai via @YouTube

[Chad Withrow @TheChadWithrow]

@thekwebcamper Nope. There’s a third. Tennessee beat them head to head by 16 points.

[Chad Withrow @TheChadWithrow]

CFB Playoff Top 10 wins:
Tennessee- 2
Alabama- 0

16 point wins vs. the other:
Tennessee- 1
Alabama- 0

[Kevin Scarbinsky @KevinScarbinsky]

For the "Tennessee should be ranked ahead of Alabama" crowd:

Tennessee beat Kentucky by 28 ... in Knoxville. Alabama beat Kentucky by 28 ... in Lexington.

Tennessee lost to South Carolina. Alabama beat South Carolina ... by 31 points.

Tennessee beat Alabama ... in Knoxville ... the week after Alabama played Georgia. The week after Alabama played Georgia, Georgia lost to Auburn in Athens.

AP ranked wins on the road: Alabama 3, Tennessee 0. Alabama's wins by 28, 33 and 18 points.

CFP ranked road wins: Alabama 2, Tennessee 0. Alabama's wins by 28 and 18 points.

Head-to-head should be the decider when all else is close to equal. In this case, right now, it's not.

Any questions?

[Chad Withrow @TheChadWithrow]

@BaileyT615 @mikeD00907656 My ranking is my ranking. I appreciate you following me and caring enough about my opinion to reply. Tennessee will likely lose again and all of this won’t matter but it’s a fun debate for the here and now. I think a head to head butt whooping should matter more.

[Chad Withrow @TheChadWithrow]

@BigYikes81 There’s no “speculation” about two teams when they went head to head and one got physically dominated by the other and they have the same amount of losses. “speculation” would be between teams like Miami and Utah who haven’t played each other.

[Chad Withrow @TheChadWithrow]

@TitanCat007 Incorrect. Bama beat South Carolina in Tuscaloosa. And if you want to play the “when they played them” game, Tennessee played South Carolina when they were fresh off a road beatdown of Florida and coming off a bye. It was Tennessee’s 8th consecutive game before the bye.
