Why does everyone here say he loves alabama? Yet Bama fans always say he hates them. I could be wrong but Finebaum is a Tennessee fan isn't he ? ...he's become the chris collinsworth of college football, every fanbase swears he hates them

Why? Won all their conference games, made the championship game, had it tied late after being down all game. Doing what’s right here matters because it makes this whole thing a sham if a team gets in due to their brand. Put the teams in that deserve it and SMU deserves it. Bama does not

They aren’t journalists. They are paid actors pumping the company line to help the bottom line.

If there were a real journalist on air, they would be talking up ASU, talking **** about Indiana, talking about how the B1G beat the SEC last year (UW>texas, Michigan >bama). Yet, all we hear about is B1G or SEC.

We should be pulling for the B1G, asu, Clemson, Boise to the sec teams…we also want OSU to lose as they are going to fire day.

I've always liked Dan Orlovsky and he likely put his ESPN job on the line just now.

He flat out said that every year it's the same conversation about the SEC being the "best conference" in college football. He said they do get the majority of the best talent but there are plenty of teams who simply don't have the opportunity to even play the same kind of schedule they do. He said if it's going to be this way every year , why not call it the SEC PLayoff? It was great!

Finebaum , of course, is on the side of Alabama due to what he calls their "strength of schedule". He did, however, crap on Miami by saying that it's the fault of the committee for putting Bama ahead of Miami last week because if they were talking about dropping Miami, no one would be making all this fuss.

I like that they are also saying that Ward Manuel put himself in a very position with the remarks he made on Tuesday about teams not playing this weekend not being able to jump over teams who did and lost. They should have just left it and said the final rankings will be today after all competition is completed.

One of the ESPN field reporters is at Bama's facility. There is no watch party planned, but that was never happening anyway. She said she hasn't seen any of the coaches, etc. but she knows they are there.

In a way, me too. I'm fully onboard the "accelerate" train. The sooner the committee outs their bias fully, the sooner we can blow up the whole system as it exists today.

No way is it acceptable to include a 9-3 team over a 10-2 team who, in their head-to-head match-up, the 9-3 team that lost played at home while the 10-2 team that won played on the road. I'm done with committees and backdoor money changing.

If they leave out SMU, the clamor over bias will heighten and we will inch closer to having a serious conversation about committee biases and preferential logo treatment with hopefully an actionable plan to undo it all. If the ACC Commish had any balls he'd send this to court for mediation. For two years straight he's been a ball-less coward on issues of obvious anti-ACC post-season seed bias.
