    We got so close to Alabama & Texas in the national title game this season. Unfortunately both got taken out in the playoffs. That being said, in an alternate universe both Bama and Texas did make the national title game this season. Not only that but Alabama wins, plus Nick Saban still retires. He would have came into Bama winning the natty and leaving Bama winning the natty, against the same team, Texas. That’s what could have been, we got so close to that, that’s how it should have happened.

    • @freddycooks
      @freddycooks 11 місяців тому +2

      It's no mystery or conspiracy why those 2 teams were put in over FSU. No assumptions needed:
      #1. Loss of starting QB.
      #2. Scored 16 pts vs #14 Louisville
      #3. Strenth of schedule 55 vs 5
      ...FSU were left out for the same reason 13-0 Liberty was left out. The bowl games were a reflection of that in both cases.

      Nah it’s cuz of favoritism, first of all if fsu went in they would’ve been absolutely obliterated by any team they went up against. Bama deserved it more for sure. College football isn’t scripted of made up, if anything is it’s nfl football thats rigged.

      @freddycooks 11 місяців тому +1

      I dont think that's it. There are NFL teams in GA, LA, TN, TX, FL, and NC. That's (9) teams among those six states right there.

    • @staygoldpunnyboy
      @staygoldpunnyboy 11 місяців тому +2

      That’s not it. First, there is more pride in college football as opposed to the NFL. That is one reason. The southern states are also better at football for a number of reasons which causes the southern schools to get the best talent. This causes a cycle of good players to gravitate towards the southern schools when being recruiting. If all of the other schools could catch up, other parts of the country would care more for college football. USC, ND, Michigan, and OSU are all teams not located in the south that are very popular within their region of the country whenever these teams are good. The issue with other parts of the country is that they are fair weather college football fans. They only care if their team wins. Look at Michigan. Their fans only started caring when they became a good team. No one was screaming “Go Blue” when they had Brady Hoke or Rich Rodriguez. It’s the way college football is. Do not be upset just because the south is better at something than others. It only makes you look feeble minded and petty.
