Who Gave G5's A Bigger CFP Lifeline Last Night?

[Red_Alert]

Bama's defense played well, but only led 17-6 at the end of the 3rd Q enroute to the 27-6 win.

Michigan trailed Georgia 27-3 at the end of the 3rd Q enroute to a 34-11 loss.

Bill O’Brien constantly throwing the ball instead of running the ball. Bama was gashing Cincinnati defense with the run but killed a lot of drives getting pass happy

I think if we learned anything from last night, it's that Big Ten teams no longer deserve playoff spots

Yeah but Michigan blew their wad when beat tOSU & apparently ran out of little blue bullet shaped pills.

Sounds oddly familiar!

Geez, if Nick had opened the floodgates and beat the crap out of them by 50 points, you'd all be in here screaming we beat up a Cinderella team.

We won without humiliating anyone. Isn't that enough?

I had Bama rushing for at least 250 yds and a clock burning game simply because they could with the line differences.
Bama rushed for 301.

My point is more that G5 Cincy played no worse than P5 Michigan did if you consider Bama/Georgia being somewhat equal.

It's not all that glaring the G5 didn't belong.

Bama basically has 2 RBs now thanks to injuries so I get them not running it every play. And play to your strengths and passing has been Bama's strength all year.

That being said, Bama ran a very vanilla offense last night. They probably could've scored a lot more if Saban wanted to

Cincy runs a 3-3-5 with an elite Secondary. Without Metchie I knew we weren’t gonna throw on them. Saban did the smart thing and ran at the 6 man box repeatedly(even tho BOB tried to fuck it up a few times)

I would agree. I'd add several other P5s from previous years to the list along with Michigan.
