They played Western Carolina.

That doesn’t change the fact that they have a very good backup QB. Hell, they had to bench Hurts in the championship game at halftime and play a backup in Tua for the first time to win.

Backups can be just as good as starters.

Alabama doesn't have a single win against a currently ranked team, what are you talking about?

Alabama has a top ten strength of schedule. Utah has the 23rd.

That's what I'm talking about.

They played Western Carolina.

You didn't answer any questions. I didn't ask who they played.
Also, didn't backup play a bit in the game tua got hurt?

What if Alabama beats Auburn by 30 this week and the backup throws for 400 yards and 5 touchdowns? Would that matter?

OU has virtually no chance. They won’t beat anyone of note to move up enough.

I think they play a Baylor team that's ranked higher than Oregon and ok state who I think it's also ranked (I could be wrong though)

Does Utah? (I literally don't know btw. Not a rhetorical question)

Alabama should be well rested after a bye week. I’m sure they’ll come out strong.

Exactly. I wouldn't count them out simply cause no tua.

We don't. I'm not saying Utah's resume is any better but Bama's isn't better either.

I disagree. I think they have the same account of losses but I think there is a difference between the teams that they lost too and their strength of schedules are exactly the same either.

I don't know if the people who decide this stuff weigh strength of schedule and how good or bad the losses are or not but I was under the impression that those things have at least a little weight in regards to resume.

They need to move to 8 already and put the 5 conference champs in and 3 at large....what is the point to having conferences and championship games if they don't really mean anything in the grand scheme of things?

Agreed.

They were up by 30 when Tua go hurt. That's why people were pissed when Tua got hurt because he should've been out of the game.

So what you are saying is that you don't know if the backup QB makes Alabama worse or how much worse. Like when they had tua I think the consensus was that they were a better team than the Utes. But now without tua we don't really know. They could be though. Backup QB might be a badass. Tua was an Alabama backup QB and he was pretty good.

Baylor’s ranked 11th. And OU already beat them once AT Baylor. A win at a neutral location against a team they already beat once in a crap conference isn’t gonna do much if anything.

And open up more bitching with who missed out?
