The PAC 10 Champ is going to have at best one loss, Oregon or Utah. Oregon lost to AU (which will be a 3-4 loss team if uga and UA beat them). Utah lost USC (bad loss). Neither have what you would call a quality win. Alabama with one loss gets in over either, especially since UA will have to beat AU, which beat Oregon. UA's only loss will be a sqeaker to the #1 team while playing a one legged QB.
Why doesn’t he have the “Banned” banner on his profile? That always adds a nice touch.He got a vacation for telling someone to "Die motherfkker".
I think it's obvious he needed a break.
I searched notable members and then did it by post count.

despite bama's flaws, they are absolutely one of the best 4 teams in the country. i really dont care if they still get in because the team that would be left out would be one they would beat decisively.
I dunno, I see that game as a tale of 2 halfs. They were awful in the first, but it was almost exclusively Tua and being absolutely not game ready. He was slow, tentative, rusty, and made some awful unforced errors that dug them a deep hole. Bama got going after the break though and had they played the full game the way they played the last 2 qtrs we are all talking about just how good bama is. LSU could do absolutely nothing against bamas offense in the second half, and while LSU did score then, it wasnt often. Bama was just in too deep a hole to climb out, but hell, they were an onsides recovery from a W. There wasnt a soul in the stadium including the lsu bench that didnt know if bama got that ball it was going to be 6 about 3 plays later. lsu's defense had absolutely nothing for them once they got going.I think they may very well be one of the best, and I generally don't bet against them being ready when a championship is on the line. But that said, if we're looking at this year in a vacuum, I would not say they are absolutely one of the best teams. They allowed ut to hang around longer than we did, and weren't even competitive with Lsu. The Duke win looked good, but they've fallen apart. I just don't think the resume is there, especially with the kind of beating they took Saturday.

I'd like to see both of them play when both are full strength. I still contend if that happens bama wins.
Thats not what i said. I said about 4 plays. An onsides recovery, and about 3 plays to get to the endzone, which by that point in the game was about all it was taking them to get a score. As to your general point, yeah, they were in the game. Are you really going to try to argue that the onsides was meaningless and they had zero chance had they recovered?Wait, I’ve heard for weeks now that we were never in the LSU game, despite having a second half lead and having the ball twice inside their 5 with a chance to tie it up late. But Alabama, who was down 20 at the half, and never lead the entire contest was one play away from a win?
I'm not so sure they are. They are sort of a paper tiger. They don't play anybody. SECW is not what it was a couple years ago, it's a 2 team race now, Bama and LSU. Bama has been on top but the tide has shifted. Other than LSU and Auburn they play nobody, and their last two games vs great competition they got their asses kicked. A couple years ago the SECW was different because A&M, Auburn and Ole Miss were stronger. Now, they look like they crush everybody because their strength of schedule is weak. My top 5 right now is:despite bama's flaws, they are absolutely one of the best 4 teams in the country. i really dont care if they still get in because the team that would be left out would be one they would beat decisively.
Penn State? Based on what?I'm not so sure they are. They are sort of a paper tiger. They don't play anybody. SECW is not what it was a couple years ago, it's a 2 team race now, Bama and LSU.

Clemson
PSU
Alabama
I have them close to #4 but I think they are beatable by everyone I have ranked above them and maybe a team or two beneath them.
FWIW I am also no longer sold on Tua. Couple years ago he was unbelievable but these days he's injury prone and making mistakes. I'm curious to see where he goes in the draft now, he was once the consensus #1 pick now that is completely out the window.
They beat what has turned out to be a decent Michigan team plus they have a couple important games left. Bama only has Auburn. Plus Penn State ain't Bama, I love downgrading them. :)Penn State? Based on what?
