Absolutely embarrassing performance by this “vaunted” Oklahoma defense tonight.

It was always a joke that the committee never took a serious look at their resume vs our resume during the final process…tonight only makes that more obvious.
They benefited from the stupid H2H buffer rule where we were penalized by it.

The real shame is that Bama didn't beat OU in Tuscaloosa earlier in the year. If they did, we're in.

Yep. 100%
Bill C and SP+ had it at like a 95% post game win expectancy for Bama. That game was a complete anonomly that anyone who watched it realized the Oklahoma team was not the better of the two teams.

Of course the entire idea of the committee is that it is suppose to look at data like that, and not just win / loss records…but I gave up on that hope a long time ago.

ND is better than both teams, they would’ve won by 40…am I doing it right? This is what I heard about us and IU last year after the first game of the playoffs? Do we have the right to act like this now?

Not sure why anyone thought Oklahoma was going to win this game. They should have lost the first time they played, Bama just shit themselves at the worst possible times.

Yes. When it's true. We would smack both of these crap teams. Look at their scores. They were not dominant against bad teams all year.

Reasonable to think Oklahoma was going to win. Not reasonable to be particularly confident in the outcome

Agreed. Both of these teams stink btw.

Alabama can do pretty well when Simpson is on; but their total inability to run the ball against even average defenses will in end doom them. And their D ain't all that either

I have no relation. Throw a football with pins in your throwing hand 2 weeks after your surgery against Texas in the red river rivalry. I saw him and a lot of other players all year. he's a humble guy that plays hurt. whats so horrible about a team player. If his rb caught that pass in the first half this game would be different
No one is saying he’s a bad kid or lacks character. But he was hyped as a front runner for the Heisman Trophy early in the year. He had the unfortunate injury. Kudos to him for getting it surgically repaired & coming back. He can run & is evasive…But he’s not a good QB. I’d say he’s Teemu Riley Leonard but Riley wasn’t that poor of a passer. OU flew under the radar b/c they had had a decent year. Most assumed they’d lose to Bama and not be heard from again but Bama spit the bit & somehow OU won.
