That is ridiculous. And if it was true. They only did it because the teams in the SEC cheat.

Yeah, you were one of the few that didnt even try to defend the last mess either. I commend you for that.

I heard he wants to spend more time with his family.I wonder if Urban is having ulcers yet.
Big Ten commissioner Jim Delaney has said the new format shouldn't include a team that doesn't win its conference division -- an obvious reference to national champion and SEC West runner-up Alabama.
LSU's Les Miles, Alabama's Nick Saban and several others made it clear that limiting a four-team playoff to conference champs likely would benefit everyone outside the SEC.
"It's just like politics and self-interest," Saban said. "Somebody wants to create a circumstance that's going to help their situation or conference. That's not in the best interest of college football."
the SEC is pushing for the top 4 teams to be in the playoff not conference champs . http://espn.go.com/college-football...e-coaches-want-football-playoff-include-top-4
this quote by the Big 10 commish just screams "we have no chance with that format"
loved sabans quote too
It's interesting to see all this back and forth, I understand the major conferences wanting their champs in, but why not make it like a 6 team playoff with a couple wildcard type teams and give 1 and 2 a bye?
I think making a conference championship a requirement to get into the national title playoff is dumb. Just for example's sake, let's pick a team from a conference other than the SEC.
Let's say Michigan beats Alabama (not gonna happen so we can roll with it as an example). Michigan goes the rest of the season undefeated but loses the BIG10 conference championship game to three loss Wisconsin. There are three undefeated teams - USC, Georgia, and FSU and they all get in. Every other team in college football has three losses or more. You're telling me one loss Michigan doesn't get in the playoff?
Dumb. Of course my example is out there. It's extreme to say every other team has three losses or more. I'm just making an extreme example of why that shouldn't be a stipulation for getting into the playoff.
It's really interesting to see the ex coaches who would like to be included in a selection committee, how could they be objective, they'll always root for their team and conference first and probably root against a rival. It needs to be outsiders without a horse in the race so to speak.
There was a shooting at an apartment complex outside of Auburn last night, and there are unconfirmed reports that an Auburn football player was killed. Sad situation. http://topics.al.com/tag/Auburn shooting/posts.html
Very very sad day in Auburn today. The weather is gloomy and rainy here, almost reflective of moods. Prayers to the families of all involved.
I've talked to some friends and family there, and all have said the same. Prayers sent up that way for all those involved.
There has been some very brutal statements tossed out by the media that I have seen, but that is par for the course for the crap media from that State. Sad that at a time like this at AU, media outlets in Birmingham and Mobile decide to take gut shots at a schools Athletics. Disgusting.Lets just say that church this AM was quite a somber place. I keep telling folks, if it was impressive how a bunch of people (Family) came together over Toomers, wait until people see how the AU Family comes together for this. WDE.
