I like it. Eliminate bias, reward the right teams and give equal opportunity for the small schools as well. Also get THE NCAA TO FINALLY SANCTION THE SYSTEM, NOT NEWSPAPERS AND BUSINESS MEN
😂 it was in 2014 if I remember correctly when Derrick Henry went ballistic, so yeah they won it that year going into 2015, 2017, and now this one 2020 season.
I could listen to a 4 hour podcast talking about literally anything with Klatt, Colin, and Joy. I'd honestly even be willing to pay a subscription. That's how entertaining these segments are. Hands down, best college football discussions along with RJ's show.
Don't criticize Alabama for playing Southern Miss and New Mexico and then advocate that we need automatic playoff bids for teams like Southern Miss and New Mexico.
Yea, if there’s any team allowed to play cupcakes, it’s Bama. If anything, they have a virtually 97% win rate against teams they should beat. They don’t sleep walk on Saturdays like tOSU
Yeah, these are the same tools that say teams like UCF should be in the playoff but Bama needs to play a tougher schedule. Bama played all SEC teams this year. Let teams like UCF and BYU play an SEC schedule. We'll see how many losses they have.
Rest of the college football world: “Bama plays a cupcake schedule every year” Bama: “We’re closing in on 100 straight wins over unranked opponents - an NCAA record by a huge margin” Ohio State Fans: “See, that’s exactly what we’re talking about - nothing but cupcakes every year!” Bama: “ Remind us which unranked opponent you lost to this year, AGAIN” Ohio State Fans - crickets
Tell us who Clemson and Ohio State play next year, Colin. And oh, btw, Alabama opens with Miami in Atlanta. I notice you didn't care to mention that. Alabama didn't play any of those cupcake games this year, and still went 13-0.
CLEM will face GA in BAC Stadium in NC, while OSU gets Oregon at home in Ohio Stadium. ALA game in Atlanta is almost like a home game, since they're played there on numerous occasions. Same goes for CLEM at BAC Stadium. GA also plays GA Tech every year, so they typically have 10 P5 games every year.
Mac jones is the best Alabama QB in history. Talk all you want, just like you did with Derrick Henry. (It’s not him, it’s his teammates) He’s destroying in every game, that’s not a fluke. Someone is going to steal him and love every second of it. If mac played for any other team, Colin would be on his knees with his mouth wide open. Furthermore, this talk of scheduling... bama played an all SEC schedule. The only two out of conference games were supposedly the best others in the country... what more proof do these hacks need?
For anyone interested, Joe Namath & Ken Stabler played for Bear Bryant at ALA. ALA w Namath voted AP NC in 1964 (lost to TX in bowl game). ALA was 11-0 w Stabler in 1966, but ND 9-0-1 was named AP NC. Both QBs won a Super Bowl.
Do you realize that Nick Saban now has more national championships then the rest of the currently active D1 coaches COMBINED? That is dominance with no equal.
it gets so damn old how they evaluate alabama qbs. I never hear a damn thing about Trevor Lawrence playing nearly his whole career with a dominant defense, great wrs, and and a historically good back. But Mac cant do anything without getting all of the credit taken from him.
LOL no it wasnt. I mean, I'm not one for excuses but we just had too many players out - a majority of defense - to hang with yall the whole game. Smith is really the only 'speed' that look on another level in the game, and admittedly we dont have some of the corners we've had the past few years. Our game plan would surely be to get to Mac but with 3 lineman out we just couldnt do it
Everybody rags on Alabama’s schedule when they play in the SEC West and literally every other team plays a few bad teams especially in the ACC and Big Ten when your whole schedule is trash
Cowhead, the 2 least athletic QBs playing in the league are true masters of the pocket and ball placement and timing. Mac Jones is that type of QB. The ones I'm talking about have done it the longest and are playing each other in the playoffs this weekend, Brady and Brees.
Why is bama’s schedule in question? Every year , someone questions their schedule. How about their schedule , this year. Beat the best of the big ten and second best of the ACC . Beat the second and third best of the sec . Who next? We’ve opened with Michigan , Wisconsin , USC , Florida state and Louisville . Open with Miami this year. You’ve got to help the small schools make money . They get big checks when they play these games so what’s the problem ??
I don’t question Alabama’s success at all, they are currently the greatest dynasty ever under Saban. The only thing close might be Knute Rockne, frank leahy at Notre dame or Bernie bierman at Minnesota in the 1930’s.
The only thing about Bamas schedule people don't like is playing the FCS schools. Thats bogus and having bye weeks before Auburn or a FCS school shouldn't be allowed. Im not saying they need top teams for their OOC schedule but they don't need to be playing those opponents
@@reaper6725 there was a time where every team that bama played took a bye week before they played bama. Everyone wants to fix bama’s schedule but, everyone else plays the same teams. I’d rather people just call it what it is, jealousy! Bama played an all sec schedule this year , so what’s the problem. They beat the best that the big ten have and the runner up in the ACC so , what’s the problem.
@@ericd8597 No, everybody does not do the same. The B1G does not play FCS at all, let alone the week before their biggest foe. I am not about fixing Alabama's schedule, but having the SEC get rid of the FCS cupcakes, and go to 9 league games. Alabama actually plays 1 better OOC game, which is better than most of the other SEC 13. SC draws Clemson, so that is a built-in great foe, but no one else has that (FL used to when FSU was strong), but no one wants to see ANY P5 school hammer the daylights out of Mercer, Delaware State, Sam Houston, or Cal-Northridge, to name a few.
@@jdhjimbo I haven't seen next year's schedules but the B10 has played FCS games. I'm certain the B10 played at least 4 in 2019. I remember PSU beating Idaho 77-0 or something like that. I know most SEC teams play an FCS game, just setting the record straight.
@@jky3889 it wasn’t just those two linebackers. Like Klatt said, they should have at least tried to play more DB’s or should have brought the house to interrupt the timing of Mac Jones. But then again, they would have just dialed up some slant passes or screens to get the ball out faster and that problem is solved.
College football is like European soccer. A few great teams at the top of each league that have the money, recruitment and pedigree to continue their success.
I agree. Much respect to what Bama is doing but personally I gave up on watching college football because it's irrelevant now. Regardless of what happens in the regular season the championship is the same 3 or 4 teams....Bama, Ohio state, and Clemson. It doesn't help when the pac12 became trash and hardly any competition. I'm a USC fan and the whole Reggie Bush scandal took SC back almost a decade with all the scholarships loses....it'd be nice to have some fresh competition soon.
As an Osu fan i gotta say this probably was the most boring playoffs to watch if your team wasnt in it considering every game was over by the 2nd quarter
@@chief9894 Jones put up those numbers against all SEC teams, that means a lot. Like Burrow put up those numbers against SEC defenses. Burrow will be real good.
I agree, but it's still a thing and a formula that keeps Alabama undefeated. As long as the ratings are high and revenue line the school programs and boosters' pockets they'll keep it this way.
@@Fan_Made_Videos go back and look at the records. Which of those years did Alabama play a cupcake, win the natty, and not deserve it? I'll wait. This year they played in unquestionably the toughest division in college football and beat everyone. Not to mention the best teams from the other division. Name me any year where the champs weren't the best team in the country
Actually, Alabama does better than most of the SEC. The B1G forbids FCS games (ND has never played one), so many do schedule cupcakes and it is bad for cfb. If the NCAA rightly did not count those wins, it would end it for the better teams. I hope it happens. Schedule one exhibition before the regular season, if teams want a tune-up, and chance to help out the budget of a small school. Otherwise, forbid it.
Bama pulls off an amazing schedule that no other team has ever done and Colin is whining like a baby. I cant stand to have to listen to him just to hear Joel.
@@flah4138 I just did - the first 3 games were a joke. NW state Demons? Seriously? Never heard of them. 2 - Vandy - if you say so. its SEC. 3 - Utah state = OMG.

@@kcirrad51 Enjoy it! Alabama was blessed to get Nick Saban, and they are on an incredible roll, but nothing is forever. If he had not gone to the pros for 2 years, LSU would be this juggernaut. Alabama missed bowls in the early part of the 21st Century, and had some so-so seasons after Gene Stallings left, and before Nick arrived. They have been amazing from 2009 til now!
A 6 win team never belonged in the CFP. My mind will never be changed. And kudos for them to playing Clemson but including OS in the 4 team CFP was a travesty.
Does anyone see that a cupcake or two in every good team's schedule helps these smaller schools that lose money on football every year keep a program going. and taking a beating for a huge paycheck gives these schools a chance to play up and also a infusion of money which many really need. It also gives the players at the smaller schools some exposure.
Also, the players get a chance to see how they stack up against some of the top teams in the nation. And some will be able to say they actually played against the eventual NC.
I like Klatt's system. Use the BCS algorithm to determine the teams that go into the playoff. It doesn't matter how big the playoff is, 6, 8, 12, 14 etc. I never liked the idea of a commitee choosing the teams anyway. I knew it would be among the same 5 or 6 schools every single year. Take the human element out of it. Even if the playoff remained at 4. Use the BCS algorithm to determine those 4 teams. Let hard data determine the teams, not the "eye test"
Just some guy in the comments. But when I was a soph our DC, who was also our DB coach (Same as Ohio St and Kerry Coombs), had us playing 44 Bear against a team that loved to run it, and had solid WRs outside because he had trust and confidence in me and my teammate. I think the issue was that Coach Coombs trusted Banks and Wade a little too much when it was clear they weren’t catching up to the motions and just getting flat out beat.
Just love the hate these two clowns have for Alabama. Klatt looks in shock thinking Buckeyes were going to win thisgame. Poor guy hates Bama so much and really tired sick of Covid excuses with all the teams not taking responsibility for their own actions. Why did Alabama play thirteen SEC teams without using Covid excuses Klatt? Weak and lame.
I mean he had Baker being a star for the most part, and Baker has been a mediocre, inconsistent quarterback. Was down on Josh Allen who is looking special. Was down big time on Justin Herbert who appears to be special. So, I do not know.
As an Ohio State fan I was very disappointed in the game obviously but it was obvious Alabama was the better team in that game. Sure we had over a dozen players out, some key defensive players and lost our running back but I still Alabama would have won as they were stacked on all sides. Ohio State was outcoached and outplayed so I can't make excuses and congratulate them on a amazing year they had. I still have high regard for my Buckeyes especially beating Clemson but I wish we could have made it a closer game. Congrats to Nick Saban on a great game plan and keeping it classy.
The conference should go to 9 league games, and along with the B1G and ACC drop back to 12 teams. 14 teams waters things down, so you miss too many teams each year from the other division.
@@USATheFallen Since only a very few teams ever make the playoffs, I want the rivalries and regular season games to mean something. With 12 teams and 9 league games, and a rotating schedule, you would meet every conference team, home and away, at least twice every 4 years. With 130 FBS teams, and only 4 or 8 or 10 in a playoff, that means a lot of teams and their fans want the excitement of regular season games. It is not just about the playoffs. I understand that is the case for Alabama, but not for the majority of Div 1 cfb.
@@jdhjimbo the B1G having the RUTGERS in their conference that's NEVER been good and is a built-in W for the BIG makes the BIG's 9 game conference schedule an absolute joke.
We all realize Saban's Alabama is very good, and would be favored in any contest, but playing horrid schools is unacceptable for any school in the top 50 of America! They are playing Miami, which is fine, but no FCS schools, and the SEC and ACC need to go to a 9-league game schedule so the odds of meeting tougher foes in the other division are increased. I also want all P5 conferences to be 12 teams max, and geographically close. WVU is way out of place, and B1G stretching from Nebraska to NJ, or the SEC from mid-TX to SC equally ridiculous. No one expects every foe to be a Top 20 team, but at least respectable P5 and decent G5 competition.
@@jdhjimbo The 9-game conf schedule is a relatively recent thing, but B10ers act as if they've been doing it for decades & have been crying about it ever since the switch in 2016. In 2017 or 2018, I forget, the B10 had a horrible non-conference year, but still complained about the SEC. B10 had 7 or 8 G5 losses & several near misses and didn't fare that great vs P5. I do remember that PSU that year needed a last second FG & OT to beat Appalachian St. I think ARK was the only SEC team that year to lose to a G5.
@@jky3889 I am not sure who you are referring to when you say the B1G is always complaining? Individual posters on YT do not represent the entire fanbases of any conference. The B1G 9-game schedule has only been in place for 5 years, as well as the ban on FCS games (with 1 modification made 2 years ago - in a year when a team only had 4 home conference games (5 away), they could schedule 1 FCS team, since it would be hard to find 3 P5 or G5 schools to all do an away game, and most schools want 7 home games). I am not concerned about schedule changes that much for Alabama, but having 9 league games and rotating it every 2 years to allow home and away matches, every team would meet every team at least twice every 4 years, balancing the schedule for every team (provided there were 12 teams, which I prefer for every conference. A P6 conference would be created by taking some of the excess P5 teams and adding in some G5 to make a new Big East of 12 teams).
@@jdhjimbo B10ers complain about scheduling every time the SEC or ACC win a NC (now 6 in a row. and 14 of the last 15 NC) & they invariably complain about conf schedules. And the fact is the B10 does schedule FCS games: you can fudge it all you want, but the fact remains. Every conference has 4-5 good teams & 4-5 bad teams and scheduling won't change that. If you start dictating who plays who, the G5 & FCS will most likely suffer financially. The SEC & ACC each probably spread more revenue around than the B10. The 9-game conference schedule should mean that the B10 retains more of their revenue, so that should be an advantage for the B10.
Every single Buckeye fan knew going into that game we were in trouble. No practice for practically weeks. Playing a seasoned and battle (sort of) tested) opponent. An opponent, I might add that started their practice season in August. When did OSU start its 2 week practice season? Oh, yeah, October 1st. Bama had played 5 games already. 3 games cancelled by Covid 19. From Michigan State on OSU had between 25 and 33 players on the Covid 19 list. When Ryan day said they had practice, he never specified whether or not that was on an actual field or a zoom meeting with the position groups. You can't beat a team like Bama, on a good day (on your best day) without preparation. OSU didn't have that. They've been running on fumes for weeks. But, go ahead and say all the stuff you just said. I don't want to give my Buckeyes a pass, I want to give them the respect they deserve for showing out week in and week out in the what is practically the worst of circumstances for them.
Scott i am a Ohio fan i congratulation you bama for there win. But I am ok with the game they didn’t change the dates they went and worked with what they had I can live with that.
So bama schedules 3 "cupcakes" which pretty much keep those school's athletics going. This year, no cupcakes. All sec schedule, goes undefeated and wins the championship. It doesn't matter the schedule!
But you all were braggin about how Ohio St. was gonna do this and that. Dabo took sh*t for his comment, but he wasn't so off. Think about this..........Kentucky, Miss St., Auburn, Tenn., all fared just as well....maybe they should have been #2 in CFP as well.
@@jky3889 Really that game vs. Ohio St., we gave them the TD with a totally whiffed blocking assignment by Billingsly (7 points) and then the 3rd down targeting hit (3 points). Bama scored 52 and gave away 10. That score could have easily been 59 - 17 or 14. Come on now.
What's wrong with the cream coming to the top every year. Nobody complained about the Yankees who dominated for nearly a century! And this incessant talk about cream puffs. This money to the cream puffs keeps their programs going. By the way, if I was Bama, I would be happy to select my cream-puffs from the Bottom 6 teams of the Big Ten if the Big Ten took their cream puffs from the bottom 4 of the SEC. This wouldn't change much at all, except the Big Ten teams would endure more loses.
Bruh, they didn’t give Florida (down 14 players) an excuse but they’re giving Ohio state one for not having 5 players???? Btw bama was down 5 too, this is so Bias
I just sat mystified at OSU's defense. It was what you'd run if you were utterly terrified of your opposition, and were just trying to avoid total humiliation. A 4 quarter prevent defense. Horrible.
Too many players out. With no D line we couldnt get to the QB, and lets be real, OSU doesnt have the corners we've had past years. If we couldnt get to the QB it didnt matter what scheme we ran.
Idk why people keep saying they were scared no body is scared they didn’t ask to change game dates they showed up and worked with what they had it wasn’t enough. That’s all you can do but scared I think if you ask any of them kids on the field the last thing there gona say is we’re scared or terrified.
@@brutusb8004 OSU tried shadowing Smith w one guy, so that one guy, usually #7, was getting run all over the field even before the ball was snapped. I would've used 2 defenders on Smith, 1 on each side of the ball: whatever side Smith was on when the ball was snapped, that guy would have primary responsibility. then go from their with the rest of the defense. Would it work, heck if I know, but chasing Smith wasn't working. Also, #32 was pretty much useless in pass coverage, so I would have had him shadow Najee Harris every play.
@@jky3889 Meh, could have worked or been better I suppose, but I honestly thing with the personal we had out it just wasnt going to happen. me MIGHT have gotten away with this scheme is we could get to the QB - but without our lineman we only got to him once, maybe twice. For whats its worth thats probably the most creative offensive scheme Ive ever been Bama run. They ment to get that boy open and they did.
Man, a 14 team playoff would be exciting. I'm all for this. Gives other schools the opportunity to show the country they can play against great schools.
@@randyjordan5521 I disagree. These bowl games suck now because all of these opt outs. Instead these bowl games would be playoff games and we could actually see a full high powered team go up against another. Also this would spread recruiting out because there would be less stress about getting to a school that goes to the playoffs
More teams means more blowouts. Do we really need to see a playoff where Bama beats an American conference and PAC12 team by 60, followed by a B1G team by 40?
You all keep mentioning the “cake” schedules that Alabama have historically had, and will have next year, yet give them no credit for playing an all SEC schedule this year, while the OSU plays five games... Alabama and those top SEC will still dominate, regardless of whether they schedule Georgia Southern.
LOL Ohio State was without half it's defensive line, a running back, a kicker, and a beat up quarterback. If OSU was at full strength they'd have probably lost by 14. That said, Alabama has the best team money can buy, so why not just give them the championship every September and call it a season?
@@ddf5878 other conferences don't want to schedule Bama or Georgia or LSU (if they can get their act together) because they know it will tank the rest of the season for them. USC is counting it's lucky stars that their game against Bama was cancelled.

College football isn’t the nfl, the big teams play the cupcakes , not just to get easy wins but it helps these small conferance teams with money issuses, they need the money and the big teams have a chance to let their under class men play
@@absurdcamus6026 Stupid? He just has a different opinion. No one knows for sure, who will be better in the NFL. Several "can't miss" guys have flopped, while 6th-rounder, Tom Brady, became the G.O.A.T.
Ohio State should have ran cover 2 zone, take away the flats and short passes. Make Jones pick us apart down field and find out if he really is a 1st round pick.
@@jjttdog Ain't that the truth. quite startling, really. It was obvious in the 1st qtr that the OSU linebackers were ineffective, certainly by the 2nd qtr. A couple of them were so slow.
It's nothing wrong with the current format of the college football playoff, the uncomfortable truth is that many programs and conferences need to get better, period...including the conference my team is in the PAC-12.
Klatt and Cowherd: Bama doesn’t play anybody. Bama: Okay we played an all-sec schedule. And blew out ND and Ohio State. Klatt and Cowherd: Well it’s a pandemic. Moving the goalpost Que the violins!!! Roll Tide
Yes, they are the most accomplished Team. Beat 13 Power 5 Teams, Beat 11 SEC Teams, 5 of the Teams they beat finished in Top 15 in final Polls.. So yes they are the best overall team to play College Football.
Timing and ball placement is easy when there's no pressure. As a Buckeye, I'm overwhelmed that Lawrence could throw for 400 yards with the OSU D-line in his face all day.
There's been lots of times during the season Jones has had to climb the pocket an throw under pressure against better defenses than Ohio states. And he still put up better numbers than Lawrence like he's been doing since high school but of course he doesn't get the same hype because he played for bama and not against bama.
When I first started watching sports talk shows on YT and had absolutely zero clue who he was I still enjoyed listening to him probably more than a lot of these “established” flagship analysts that have their own huge shows. He has really good insights and always explains himself well.
So what do u want! Do we need to give the other conferences our players? This is absurd! If OSU wins last night there is no talk of this! They talk about our schedule and it was by far the toughest in the country hands down!
Clearly we’re, but still terrible gameplay and lack of aggressive offensive play calling. 4 linebackers vs that speed is not good coaching. Now if they lost by 10-14 you could make the argument that coaching wasn’t the problem, but not a 28 point loss.
Yes it was. Those OSU linebackers were useless on most plays. #32 was absolutely gassed in the 2nd qtr. I don't know how many players OSU was missing from covid, but surely a program like OSU has plenty of backups who could at least spot the starters a few plays to give 'em a breather. IMHO, 32 & 20 didn't belong on the field: it was obvious after 1 qtr.
It was painfully obvious in the 1st qtr that OSU's linebackers were too slow. I would've gone with speed: 3-4 down linemen plus the rest defensive backs. But then stopping Najee Harris would be problematic and Smith & co. still go wild.
Bama three cupcakes!? A 100% SEC schedule people. Then destroyed ND and humiliated Ohio State. There is beyond reasonable doubt that Bama is the very best.
@@reggiesolomon2205 I have been to Macon, and some of the buildings on the Mercer campus are very nice, and yes, it is good academically. However, that is not the standard to be used when scheduling football games. I don't think Alabama should be the one targeted about scheduling, since they already play in the nation's toughest division, the SEC West, and always play a better quality P5 team for one game, but many of the SEC teams just play garbage in the OOC, including FCS.
@@jdhjimbo in a game like mercer this is only way that some of the 2nd and 3rd stringers get a chance to play and it helps the budgets of the lower tier FCS schools. Bama does need a break from the constant grind of the West.
I kinda think that statement should've been... Every team Alabama played this season was insufficient for Alabama's offense. This team was dominant.. It had leadership... Talent and outstanding coaching. That's a tough combination to beat.
B10ers have been harping on the 8 game SEC conference schedule for several years now. The thing is, the B10 switched to the 9 game conf schedule kind of recently (2016), but carry on like it's been decades. This year ALA had 10 reg seas conf games while nine B10 teams played fewer than 8, including OSU (to the B10ers, yes I know, covid). Still the facts, though.
SEC facing more G5/FCS teams means more revenue gets shifted to those schools. The Citadel was able to get a new scoreboard & make improvements to their athletic facilities (not just football) and had some money left over for other costs. I'm sure other G5/FCS programs will have similar stories. The B10 retains more of their own revenue, so their 9 game conf schedule should be an advantage.
@@jky3889 I know about the $ helping smaller schools, and I would have no problem letting everyone schedule one of those exhibitions before the regular season started, but the wins should not count toward a playoff or bowl resume. Years ago, George Allen, the former Redskins coach, but now at Long Beach State, approached Michigan about a game, as they were in danger of having to drop football entirely. UM agreed, beat LBSU, 49-0, but the Broncos revenue share from 107,000+ was more than enough to keep them going.

It's a start. I've got a 16 team layout that will please both Power 5/Group of 5 schools AND reward conference champions too.

Tell us who Clemson and Ohio State play next year, Colin. And oh, btw, Alabama opens with Miami in Atlanta. I notice you didn't care to mention that. Alabama didn't play any of those cupcake games this year, and still went 13-0.
CLEM will face GA in BAC Stadium in NC, while OSU gets Oregon at home in Ohio Stadium.
ALA game in Atlanta is almost like a home game, since they're played there on numerous occasions.
Same goes for CLEM at BAC Stadium. GA also plays GA Tech every year, so they typically have 10 P5 games every year.

I never knew Colin is such a Bama hater . 😆 This year it's in your face ! SCHEDULE and ALL !
Roll Tide !
Colin is an idiot; if you play a full SEC schedule, no one else in the nation is playing a tougher schedule. So, Colin needs to calm down.
Mac jones is the best Alabama QB in history. Talk all you want, just like you did with Derrick Henry. (It’s not him, it’s his teammates) He’s destroying in every game, that’s not a fluke. Someone is going to steal him and love every second of it. If mac played for any other team, Colin would be on his knees with his mouth wide open.
Furthermore, this talk of scheduling... bama played an all SEC schedule. The only two out of conference games were supposedly the best others in the country... what more proof do these hacks need?
Yeah If mac played for any other school the media would be drooling over him more than Joe or Trevor
For anyone interested, Joe Namath & Ken Stabler played for Bear Bryant at ALA. ALA w Namath voted AP NC in 1964 (lost to TX in bowl game). ALA was 11-0 w Stabler in 1966, but ND 9-0-1 was named AP NC. Both QBs won a Super Bowl.
Do you realize that Nick Saban now has more national championships then the rest of the currently active D1 coaches COMBINED? That is dominance with no equal.
"A homeless man Burrow"
I literally can't breathe XD
Colin, taking other sports columnists' material since...
Is "trunky" only a compliment for Darnold?
The jealousy and bias against southern football is evident and therefore hilarious Lol 😂 😂😂
Roll damn tide y'all
it gets so damn old how they evaluate alabama qbs. I never hear a damn thing about Trevor Lawrence playing nearly his whole career with a dominant defense, great wrs, and and a historically good back. But Mac cant do anything without getting all of the credit taken from him.
Joe Burrow was the unanimous #1 guy with arguably an even better receiving core. It's hip to hate bama
They’re haters. They did the same thing with Derrick Henry
Ohio states answer to Bama’s speed was to put more linebackers on the field
LOL no it wasnt. I mean, I'm not one for excuses but we just had too many players out - a majority of defense - to hang with yall the whole game. Smith is really the only 'speed' that look on another level in the game, and admittedly we dont have some of the corners we've had the past few years. Our game plan would surely be to get to Mac but with 3 lineman out we just couldnt do it
No idea what Coombs was thinking with that 4-4-3 scheme. Poor defensive game plan and coaching from OSU. Bama too strong

Cowhead, the 2 least athletic QBs playing in the league are true masters of the pocket and ball placement and timing. Mac Jones is that type of QB. The ones I'm talking about have done it the longest and are playing each other in the playoffs this weekend, Brady and Brees.
Why is bama’s schedule in question? Every year , someone questions their schedule. How about their schedule , this year. Beat the best of the big ten and second best of the ACC . Beat the second and third best of the sec . Who next? We’ve opened with Michigan , Wisconsin , USC , Florida state and Louisville . Open with Miami this year. You’ve got to help the small schools make money . They get big checks when they play these games so what’s the problem ??
I don’t question Alabama’s success at all, they are currently the greatest dynasty ever under Saban. The only thing close might be Knute Rockne, frank leahy at Notre dame or Bernie bierman at Minnesota in the 1930’s.
The only thing about Bamas schedule people don't like is playing the FCS schools. Thats bogus and having bye weeks before Auburn or a FCS school shouldn't be allowed. Im not saying they need top teams for their OOC schedule but they don't need to be playing those opponents
@@reaper6725 there was a time where every team that bama played took a bye week before they played bama. Everyone wants to fix bama’s schedule but, everyone else plays the same teams. I’d rather people just call it what it is, jealousy! Bama played an all sec schedule this year , so what’s the problem. They beat the best that the big ten have and the runner up in the ACC so , what’s the problem.
@@ericd8597 No, everybody does not do the same. The B1G does not play FCS at all, let alone the week before their biggest foe. I am not about fixing Alabama's schedule, but having the SEC get rid of the FCS cupcakes, and go to 9 league games. Alabama actually plays 1 better OOC game, which is better than most of the other SEC 13. SC draws Clemson, so that is a built-in great foe, but no one else has that (FL used to when FSU was strong), but no one wants to see ANY P5 school hammer the daylights out of Mercer, Delaware State, Sam Houston, or Cal-Northridge, to name a few.
@@jdhjimbo I haven't seen next year's schedules but the B10 has played FCS games. I'm certain the B10 played at least 4 in 2019. I remember PSU beating Idaho 77-0 or something like that. I know most SEC teams play an FCS game, just setting the record straight.
Colin said Sarkisian had a nice night as the OC, Sark had an answer for every coverage Ohio state threw at them and he exposed them.
OSU got out-coached vs ALA. I would have pulled werner & borland, then put in some faster players. Watching borland run is painful.
@@jky3889 it wasn’t just those two linebackers. Like Klatt said, they should have at least tried to play more DB’s or should have brought the house to interrupt the timing of Mac Jones. But then again, they would have just dialed up some slant passes or screens to get the ball out faster and that problem is solved.
College football is like European soccer. A few great teams at the top of each league that have the money, recruitment and pedigree to continue their success.
Great comment
I agree. Much respect to what Bama is doing but personally I gave up on watching college football because it's irrelevant now. Regardless of what happens in the regular season the championship is the same 3 or 4 teams....Bama, Ohio state, and Clemson. It doesn't help when the pac12 became trash and hardly any competition. I'm a USC fan and the whole Reggie Bush scandal took SC back almost a decade with all the scholarships loses....it'd be nice to have some fresh competition soon.
Exactly, and I dont really see why there is a need to change that. Go watch the NFL for parity
This is completely facts
Take the top 12. Let 1,2,3&4 have a bye week. 3 rounds... Simple!!!

@@chief9894 Jones put up those numbers against all SEC teams, that means a lot. Like Burrow put up those numbers against SEC defenses. Burrow will be real good.

SEC is the Power One? I like the sound of that...
Almost every major program tries to schedule cupcakes for most of their non-conference games, that isn't just an Alabama thing.
it's also part of the whole system because those cupcake schools get paid to go get stepped on
I agree, but it's still a thing and a formula that keeps Alabama undefeated. As long as the ratings are high and revenue line the school programs and boosters' pockets they'll keep it this way.
Bama always plays a tough out of conference team. Failed to mention playing Miami next year. Moving forward they play two such games several seasons.
@@Fan_Made_Videos go back and look at the records. Which of those years did Alabama play a cupcake, win the natty, and not deserve it? I'll wait. This year they played in unquestionably the toughest division in college football and beat everyone. Not to mention the best teams from the other division. Name me any year where the champs weren't the best team in the country
Actually, Alabama does better than most of the SEC. The B1G forbids FCS games (ND has never played one), so many do schedule cupcakes and it is bad for cfb. If the NCAA rightly did not count those wins, it would end it for the better teams. I hope it happens. Schedule one exhibition before the regular season, if teams want a tune-up, and chance to help out the budget of a small school. Otherwise, forbid it.

Alabama missed bowls in the early part of the 21st Century, and had some so-so seasons after Gene Stallings left, and before Nick arrived. They have been amazing from 2009 til now!
Dabo winnie was right. OSU was the 11th best team in the country after getting boat raced by Bama. That means Clemson should be 12th though.
At best. but they got blown out, so logic says lower.
A 6 win team never belonged in the CFP. My mind will never be changed. And kudos for them to playing Clemson but including OS in the 4 team CFP was a travesty.
Any team you put in that game loses by at least 4 touchdowns.
Does anyone see that a cupcake or two in every good team's schedule helps these smaller schools that lose money on football every year keep a program going. and taking a beating for a huge paycheck gives these schools a chance to play up and also a infusion of money which many really need. It also gives the players at the smaller schools some exposure.
Also, the players get a chance to see how they stack up against some of the top teams in the nation. And some will be able to say they actually played against the eventual NC.
I like Klatt's system. Use the BCS algorithm to determine the teams that go into the playoff. It doesn't matter how big the playoff is, 6, 8, 12, 14 etc. I never liked the idea of a commitee choosing the teams anyway. I knew it would be among the same 5 or 6 schools every single year. Take the human element out of it. Even if the playoff remained at 4. Use the BCS algorithm to determine those 4 teams. Let hard data determine the teams, not the "eye test"
Let's just go back to the BCS then smh🤦
Just some guy in the comments.
But when I was a soph our DC, who was also our DB coach (Same as Ohio St and Kerry Coombs), had us playing 44 Bear against a team that loved to run it, and had solid WRs outside because he had trust and confidence in me and my teammate. I think the issue was that Coach Coombs trusted Banks and Wade a little too much when it was clear they weren’t catching up to the motions and just getting flat out beat.
Just love the hate these two clowns have for Alabama. Klatt looks in shock thinking Buckeyes were going to win thisgame. Poor guy hates Bama so much and really tired sick of Covid excuses with all the teams not taking responsibility for their own actions. Why did Alabama play thirteen SEC teams without using Covid excuses Klatt? Weak and lame.
Can we let Cowherd and Klatt talk with the camera on Joy the whole time?
Klatt would probably be a great NFL GM if he put his energy towards learning how to do that.
I mean he had Baker being a star for the most part, and Baker has been a mediocre, inconsistent quarterback. Was down on Josh Allen who is looking special. Was down big time on Justin Herbert who appears to be special. So, I do not know.
Klatt needs to get into politics. He seems fair AF

As an Ohio State fan I was very disappointed in the game obviously but it was obvious Alabama was the better team in that game. Sure we had over a dozen players out, some key defensive players and lost our running back but I still Alabama would have won as they were stacked on all sides. Ohio State was outcoached and outplayed so I can't make excuses and congratulate them on a amazing year they had. I still have high regard for my Buckeyes especially beating Clemson but I wish we could have made it a closer game. Congrats to Nick Saban on a great game plan and keeping it classy.
Smh only 17 minutes
Someone make a schedule to make things more equal, like say, an all SEC schedule possibly???
Right, wait they did that lol
The conference should go to 9 league games, and along with the B1G and ACC drop back to 12 teams. 14 teams waters things down, so you miss too many teams each year from the other division.
@@jdhjimbo but that's what the playoffs are for the best of each conference meets. What are you watching?
@@USATheFallen Since only a very few teams ever make the playoffs, I want the rivalries and regular season games to mean something. With 12 teams and 9 league games, and a rotating schedule, you would meet every conference team, home and away, at least twice every 4 years. With 130 FBS teams, and only 4 or 8 or 10 in a playoff, that means a lot of teams and their fans want the excitement of regular season games. It is not just about the playoffs.

For what it's worth, Notre Dame held Alabama to their lowest point total (31) in any game this season.
And Fowler forgot about, saying during the game that ALA was going for it's 26th straight game of scoring 35 or more points.

Colin...who is Alabama supposed to play outside of the conference... Ohio State and Notre Dame..🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
And destroyed both of them... what more can they do?
We all realize Saban's Alabama is very good, and would be favored in any contest, but playing horrid schools is unacceptable for any school in the top 50 of America! They are playing Miami, which is fine, but no FCS schools, and the SEC and ACC need to go to a 9-league game schedule so the odds of meeting tougher foes in the other division are increased. I also want all P5 conferences to be 12 teams max, and geographically close. WVU is way out of place, and B1G stretching from Nebraska to NJ, or the SEC from mid-TX to SC equally ridiculous. No one expects every foe to be a Top 20 team, but at least respectable P5 and decent G5 competition.
@@jdhjimbo The 9-game conf schedule is a relatively recent thing, but B10ers act as if they've been doing it for decades & have been crying about it ever since the switch in 2016. In 2017 or 2018, I forget, the B10 had a horrible non-conference year, but still complained about the SEC. B10 had 7 or 8 G5 losses & several near misses and didn't fare that great vs P5. I do remember that PSU that year needed a last second FG & OT to beat Appalachian St. I think ARK was the only SEC team that year to lose to a G5.
@@jky3889 I am not sure who you are referring to when you say the B1G is always complaining? Individual posters on YT do not represent the entire fanbases of any conference. The B1G 9-game schedule has only been in place for 5 years, as well as the ban on FCS games (with 1 modification made 2 years ago - in a year when a team only had 4 home conference games (5 away), they could schedule 1 FCS team, since it would be hard to find 3 P5 or G5 schools to all do an away game, and most schools want 7 home games). I am not concerned about schedule changes that much for Alabama, but having 9 league games and rotating it every 2 years to allow home and away matches, every team would meet every team at least twice every 4 years, balancing the schedule for every team (provided there were 12 teams, which I prefer for every conference. A P6 conference would be created by taking some of the excess P5 teams and adding in some G5 to make a new Big East of 12 teams).
@@jdhjimbo B10ers complain about scheduling every time the SEC or ACC win a NC (now 6 in a row. and 14 of the last 15 NC) & they invariably complain about conf schedules. And the fact is the B10 does schedule FCS games: you can fudge it all you want, but the fact remains. Every conference has 4-5 good teams & 4-5 bad teams and scheduling won't change that. If you start dictating who plays who, the G5 & FCS will most likely suffer financially. The SEC & ACC each probably spread more revenue around than the B10. The 9-game conference schedule should mean that the B10 retains more of their revenue, so that should be an advantage for the B10.
That's an interesting thought. I dont know how good Mac Jones can be in the league but I think Mac can be very good.
Mac is a straight up pro style QB
All conferences aren't created equal. Playoff is fine as it is, even if you change it you aren't changing the recruiting disparity.
Joel’s analogy was exceptional
Alabama just played a 10 game conference schedule and the outcome was no different than having that thing called Mercer on there.
It will never be good enough for these people.
Every single Buckeye fan knew going into that game we were in trouble. No practice for practically weeks. Playing a seasoned and battle (sort of) tested) opponent. An opponent, I might add that started their practice season in August. When did OSU start its 2 week practice season? Oh, yeah, October 1st. Bama had played 5 games already. 3 games cancelled by Covid 19. From Michigan State on OSU had between 25 and 33 players on the Covid 19 list. When Ryan day said they had practice, he never specified whether or not that was on an actual field or a zoom meeting with the position groups. You can't beat a team like Bama, on a good day (on your best day) without preparation. OSU didn't have that. They've been running on fumes for weeks. But, go ahead and say all the stuff you just said. I don't want to give my Buckeyes a pass, I want to give them the respect they deserve for showing out week in and week out in the what is practically the worst of circumstances for them.

ALA destroyed Kentucky 63-3. KY had 179 total yards, but their D did give up 120 fewer yards than OSU.
@@jky3889 Really that game vs. Ohio St., we gave them the TD with a totally whiffed blocking assignment by Billingsly (7 points) and then the 3rd down targeting hit (3 points). Bama scored 52 and gave away 10. That score could have easily been 59 - 17 or 14. Come on now.
What's wrong with the cream coming to the top every year. Nobody complained about the Yankees who dominated for nearly a century! And this incessant talk about cream puffs. This money to the cream puffs keeps their programs going. By the way, if I was Bama, I would be happy to select my cream-puffs from the Bottom 6 teams of the Big Ten if the Big Ten took their cream puffs from the bottom 4 of the SEC. This wouldn't change much at all, except the Big Ten teams would endure more loses.

Nice of Colin to conveniently leave of the fact that Bama opens the season with Miami next year❗️❗️❗️
I just sat mystified at OSU's defense. It was what you'd run if you were utterly terrified of your opposition, and were just trying to avoid total humiliation. A 4 quarter prevent defense. Horrible.
Too many players out. With no D line we couldnt get to the QB, and lets be real, OSU doesnt have the corners we've had past years. If we couldnt get to the QB it didnt matter what scheme we ran.
Idk why people keep saying they were scared no body is scared they didn’t ask to change game dates they showed up and worked with what they had it wasn’t enough.

@@brutusb8004 OSU tried shadowing Smith w one guy, so that one guy, usually #7, was getting run all over the field even before the ball was snapped.

Timing and ball placement is easy when there's no pressure. As a Buckeye, I'm overwhelmed that Lawrence could throw for 400 yards with the OSU D-line in his face all day.
There's been lots of times during the season Jones has had to climb the pocket an throw under pressure against better defenses than Ohio states. And he still put up better numbers than Lawrence like he's been doing since high school but of course he doesn't get the same hype because he played for bama and not against bama.

So what do u want! Do we need to give the other conferences our players? This is absurd! If OSU wins last night there is no talk of this! They talk about our schedule and it was by far the toughest in the country hands down!
If you put Alabama's success at USC I guarantee Colin has a different take
Are we gon give Ohio State the Notre Dame treatment cuz they took the worst loss out of any team in the playoffs
By that logic, Clemson should get the “ND Treatment” because Clemson lost to Ohio State...
God I hope so!
From a Ohio fan. Congrats bama and sure bring the treatment on no problem.
@@rickhaavisto9023 And then Notre Dame should get the "ND treatment"
Cause they lost to the team that lost to Ohio state
Coaching wasn't OSU problem. Bama is just that good. Shut up Colin.
Clearly we’re, but still terrible gameplay and lack of aggressive offensive play calling. 4 linebackers vs that speed is not good coaching. Now if they lost by 10-14 you could make the argument that coaching wasn’t the problem, but not a 28 point loss.
Yes it was. Those OSU linebackers were useless on most plays. #32 was absolutely gassed in the 2nd qtr. I don't know how many players OSU was missing from covid, but surely a program like OSU has plenty of backups who could at least spot the starters a few plays to give 'em a breather. IMHO, 32 & 20 didn't belong on the field: it was obvious after 1 qtr.
That 4-4 Defense was a horrible decision, they had a chance early but couldn't get stops.
It was painfully obvious in the 1st qtr that OSU's linebackers were too slow. I would've gone with speed: 3-4 down linemen plus the rest defensive backs. But then stopping Najee Harris would be problematic and Smith & co. still go wild.
Bama three cupcakes!? A 100% SEC schedule people. Then destroyed ND and humiliated Ohio State. There is beyond reasonable doubt that Bama is the very best.
It will never be enough for these people man
“Something called Mercer” 🤣🤣🤣
A small school in Macon, GA.
Yea I know shoutout Sam Mitchell
@@jdhjimbo a very respectable institution of higher learning
@@reggiesolomon2205 I have been to Macon, and some of the buildings on the Mercer campus are very nice, and yes, it is good academically. However, that is not the standard to be used when scheduling football games. I don't think Alabama should be the one targeted about scheduling, since they already play in the nation's toughest division, the SEC West, and always play a better quality P5 team for one game, but many of the SEC teams just play garbage in the OOC, including FCS.
@@jdhjimbo in a game like mercer this is only way that some of the 2nd and 3rd stringers get a chance to play and it helps the budgets of the lower tier FCS schools. Bama does need a break from the constant grind of the West.
2 days in a row?!?!? It’s gonna be a great week 😎💪🏼
Coastal Carolina was good, and Liberty was also very good
I kinda think that statement should've been... Every team Alabama played this season was insufficient for Alabama's offense. This team was dominant.. It had leadership... Talent and outstanding coaching. That's a tough combination to beat.
Ladies, you can't use the Mercer excuse this year. If ND or OSU was always winning you would have no problem.
B10ers have been harping on the 8 game SEC conference schedule for several years now. The thing is, the B10 switched to the 9 game conf schedule kind of recently (2016), but carry on like it's been decades. This year ALA had 10 reg seas conf games while nine B10 teams played fewer than 8, including OSU (to the B10ers, yes I know, covid). Still the facts, though.
SEC facing more G5/FCS teams means more revenue gets shifted to those schools. The Citadel was able to get a new scoreboard & make improvements to their athletic facilities (not just football) and had some money left over for other costs. I'm sure other G5/FCS programs will have similar stories. The B10 retains more of their own revenue, so their 9 game conf schedule should be an advantage.
@@jky3889 I know about the $ helping smaller schools, and I would have no problem letting everyone schedule one of those exhibitions before the regular season started, but the wins should not count toward a playoff or bowl resume. Years ago, George Allen, the former Redskins coach, but now at Long Beach State, approached Michigan about a game, as they were in danger of having to drop football entirely. UM agreed, beat LBSU, 49-0, but the Broncos revenue share from 107,000+ was more than enough to keep them going.
