After all, they did beat Bama @ Bama, right?

My mother was born in Alabama so I do have a soft spot for the Crimson Tide but....................now do the NCAA powers that be know there should really be an 8 or 16 team play-off.

And why in the hell is the national media almost to the person pulling for freakin' Notre Dame for popes sake?

EMU > WMU > UConn > Louisville > Florida > A&M > Alabama > Notre Dame

Obviously, the 2-10 Eastern Michigan Eagles are the 2013 Mythical National Champions.

Oregon really got the shaft. Loses by three against Stanford in OT late & gets completely knocked out in the NC hunt.

I love transitive logic. I'll come up with some great scenarios tomorrow when I get to a faster computer.

Congratulations, EMU!!

A&M lost to LSU, too. But I don't feel like declaring ten teams the champions.

Alabama are the national champs, get over it.

Oregon is supposed to be playing for the National Title.

There is no national champion at this level.

Replacing who? Undefeated Notre Dame or the team beating them by 35? And don't say a playoff, the system isn't currently set up like that.

*1-10 with their only win against DII Mars Hill.

Congratulations, Catamounts! 2012 NCAA Champions!

Best post so far.

Playoffs are overrated. It does a great job of telling who got hot at the right time, but not who the best team for the whole year was. The Giants went 9-7 in 2011, they were the best team that year?

Exactly. The ONLY team that should complain is Oregon. And i don't think they'd touch Alabama either, so they really don't matter either.

The system is currently a two team playoff.

Bama sucks donkey dick

Actually by your statement, playoffs do say who's the best team for the "that year".
Yeah the giants were the best team that year. Thats life you're not ganraunteed to win every game. So if you're 15-1 team and you get beat by a 9-5 team then you really are not the best.

Its called "playing the game".

Agree. A&M has been playing better than anyone the last few weeks of the season... including a convincing win over the national champions on the road. They would probably win a playoff format, but we don't have that.

Alabama is the champ but would have loved to have seen Oregon's offense go up against Alabama's defense.

Probably similar to what A&M's did... but without the Heisman winner running the show.

Ohio State fans were saying the same thing.. It should've been them instead of Bama.. Bama didn't deserve to be playing in the game. This was of course after they done said they were pulling for Notre Lame.

I don't think anyone wants to play A&M right now, but they shouldn't be the national champs with 2 losses.
