🏈 Before the title game, there was an article published about where Saban had ranked OSU (while all the attention was on Dabo and his #11 ranking)

I've had this bookmarked and have been meaning to post this for a minute.

ElevenWarriors puts out Ohio State content and a good bit of it is good stuff. This? It's good, from our perspective.


Don't let Dabo Swinney's antics distract you from Nick Saban's disrespect.

Swinney got all the headlines this month for ranking Ohio State appallingly low in his final coaches poll, but let's not forget that Saban's poll trolled the hell out of the Buckeyes, too.

In his final coaches poll, Saban not only ranked Ohio State outside of the top four, which seems to indicate he didn't see the Buckeyes as worthy of a playoff spot, but he ranked them below Texas A&M – a team his Crimson Tide team beat [BGCOLOR=rgb(255, 255, 255)]52-24[/BGCOLOR] earlier in the season.

It may not be quite as egregious as ranking Ohio State outside of the top-10 like Swinney did, but ranking your College Football Playoff title game opponent below a team you waxed by four touchdowns two months before certainly isn't nothing.

LOL...the irony here.

Great find TP.

What I think he trying to say here is this! I beat Texas A&M 52-24, So why not beat this Bozo the same score! So I think the real question we as Bama fans want to know is this? Which one gave Bama the hardest game?

I’ll bet a&m would have been a better game. But really enjoyed watching Bama beat notre dame and the buckeye’s
