You didn't prove anything. Ask your sources at Akron.

But Bama won, and OSU lost. OSU doesnt even have a defense

Your point? Alabama doesnt have an offense, and their D was exposed against a 1AA team. Havent seen OSU's offense exposed yet.

The burden of proof would be on Alabama here, big time.

If Oklahoma State wins, their argument is pretty damn valid.

Yeah, scoring 40 points a game and holding teams to less than 10 is a horrible offense and defense. Bama is good on both sides of the ball while OSU is only good on offense. What are they ranked in defense, 100 something?

I wrote a script that proves the burden is on Alabama and you.

You mean the defense that is objectively rated the #1 defense in college football statistically? You have a TERRIBLE argument here.

If you want to go by stats, Bama isnt even the best defense Georgia Southern has faced all year.

Yes, it is (yardage per game). And what is the point you're trying to make? That because the #1 defense in the country gave up 300 rushing yards in a win against a team that is 7th in ALL of college football in total rushing yards, they're worse than a team that lost to Iowa State?

You're pretty bad at arguing if that's the case.

Here's the thing though...


I don't give a shit. I'll be more likely to watch a re-run of a solid Golden Girls episode rather than that re-tread match-up.:thumbdown:

I want to see the 2 best teams. If that's LSU and Alabama, so be it.

Rephrase: I want to see what appear to be the 2 best teams play. It appears to me that Alabama and LSU are the two best teams. If OSU wanted to prove that they are one of the two best, they needed to beat Iowa freaking State.

Football is about entertainment. Attempting to find an entertaining game trumps the fact that 'bama is probably #2.
