Nick Saban's Comments About Florida, BCS Bowl Berth Smack of Hypocrisy

Quote:
With Florida sitting in the No. 4 spot in the latest BCS Standings, the loser of Saturday night's SEC Championship Game between No. 2 Alabama and No. 3 Georgia will likely fall behind the one-loss Gators in the final BCS Standings.

Essentially, the loser of the SEC Championship Game would be getting punished while Florida will be rewarded, despite not winning its division.

Saban isn't too high on the prospect of the loser getting jumped by Florida, according to the Palm Beach (Fla.) Post.

It’s not really a great scenario. You play your way into the (SEC) championship game, which means you’re the best team in your division. It doesn’t seem quite right, but it is what it is. I don’t really know what me commenting about it is going to do to change it. But I don’t feel good about it.

So Saban doesn't think it's right to play in the BCS this year without winning your division?

It didn't seem to be an issue last season, when his Crimson Tide played in the BCS National Championship Game.


Stay classy, Nick!   Smiley

Just think. Had they not opted for bowl inelligibility, the Buckeyes would be playing Notre Dame. The Buckeyes are really kicking themselves for that. Oh well, there's always next season.

Ohio State didn't opt for ineligibility.  The NCAA ordered it.

Ohio State gets one-year bowl ban

Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel has won the Heisman Trophy, becoming the first freshman to win college football's most prized individual award.

The redshirt freshman beat out Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o and Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein.

A few days after turning 20, Manziel became the most inexperienced player to win the Heisman. Adrian Peterson had come closest as a freshman, finishing second to Southern California quarterback Matt Leinart in 2004.

Manziel is the second player from Texas A&M to win the Heisman, and first since John David Crow 1957.

Manziel broke 2010 Heisman winner Cam Netwon's Southeastern Conference record with 4,600 total yards this season, led the Aggies to a 10-2 in their first SEC season and orchestrated an upset at No. 1 Alabama in November that stamped him as legit.

The Gators are getting their butts handed to them.

Louisville 30, Florida 10 in the third quarter.

Good thing Florida is a 4th quarter team!

I would have posted earlier but I just got back from NYC.  Watched the game from Times Square.  What a great game for us Bama fans.  I know the rest of the country was sleeping lol.  Two blowouts in a row.  Let's go for a three-peat next year in Pasadena!!  Roll Tide!
