You may know me as The Bear. Now at @FOXSports. Let's talk - and bet - College Football, NFL, Horses, Soccer, MLB, Tennis, Golf and CBB. Love to Travel.
If TCU had an Oklahoma or Texas logo on its helmet, there would be ZERO doubt it was in - win or lose today - after a 12-0 regular season which included nine conference games. This talk of two-loss Bama jumping them with a loss is pure nonsense.
Sources: Tennessee QB Nico Iamaleava did not attend Tennessee spring practice today. He’s been in conversations with Tennessee about a new contract. The no-show of practice came as a surprise.
Georgia pretty much had the most difficult conference schedule the SEC could have spat out of the generator - at Bama, at Texas, at Ole Miss, Tenn... and they still won the league.
Saturday is the 2nd time in CFB history there are three matchups of teams 5-0 or better on the same day - 5-0 Penn State at 6-0 Michigan, 6-0 Alabama at 5-0 Tennessee and 5-0 Oklahoma State at 5-0 TCU...
Three of the current Top 5 in the AP Poll - Texas, Penn State and Indiana - do not have a win over team currently ranked. No. 9 Alabama has more (4) than the current Top 5 has combined (3).
I don't know what's going to happen in 2nd half in Atlanta. But all I know is if Alabama wins, you can't take Bama over Texas. Both 12-1, both conf champs, Texas won by 10 at Bama. You can take both, you can take Texas over Bama but not Bama over Texas...
