- Clemson loses they are 1-4 in CFP NC tries. 25% success rate. Which is Buffalo Bills territory.

-Alabama loses they are 2-5 in CFP NC tries 40% success rate. Not worthy of a GOAT.

Side note: Meyer is 1-2 in CFP tries . 50% success rate.

I apologize if I brought up any bad memories for Bills fans.

Neither, IMO Gump can claim 6 natty’s in 10 years if they win....5 if they lose. Nobody else is close.

Clemson can be seen as THE giant killer if they win, only one that can go toe-to-toe with Bama if they lose. Having made the play-offs 4 of 5 years with a championship isn’t a bad 2nd place trophy if they lose.

All season, everyone has been saying Bama is the team to beat. Clemson isn't expected to win this game and bama is.

Bama would be the big loser imo.

How horrible would it be to be called the second best team in the country without a doubt? I mean that’s just soul crushing. Much better to be a team that has been excluded the last two years to keep your “winning percentage” up.

Yeah I not saying that Saban will not still be praised but there is an argument if he has failed more than he as won.

And Oklahoma has made it 3 out of 5 CFPs but I don't they are getting any praise.

Which isn't true and, even if it was, he has still done more than any other coach in CFB. It's gonna suck for whoever loses, it's the NC ffs, but it's not like it's the end of the world. Both teams are young and loaded and both will be right back in the mix all over again next season. I'd much rather get there and lose than not be good enough to be there to begin with and have to settle for some shit consolation game.

But his swan song in the playoffs was watching his soft, slow team get a historic beat down in the Fiesta Bowl semifinal.

I said CFB Nation Championships , they don't give you one for winning the first game.
Still wouldn't be true, would be 2-2 CFP CGs if he manages to lose this one.

2-5 if Saban loses.
Bama hasn't played in 5 CFP NCGs, they've played in 3 and won 2 of them. Like I said, their overall playoff record at this very minute is 6-2.

Neither. They seem to be the two best teams. Their recruiting classes are not hurting.

The key is who is your head coach.

Dabo is going to be around for quite some time, how much longer will Saban stay? If you say Saban stays for five more years, that means he will be 72. Using that math, then Dabo will be around for 23 years.

When Saban retires, then Alabama will have a problem.

lol did I trigger you?

Nah, I just get amused when fans of little brother programs like you try to talk smack about their betters. As I told you before...you don't even have to beat Clemson just try beating a program from South Carolina just once before you bring your smack Clemson's way. Even the friggin' Gamecocks got scoreboard on you, and that's just sad.

Didn't say they did.. If they lose they would have had 5 chances to win a CFP NC and would have failed 3 out of 5 times.

It feels like KKK is going with the Montana is better than Brady because Brady lost in the Super Bowl and Montana was better because he lost earlier than the Super Bowl. KKK made sure to point out Urban won one of the two playoffs he was in to show he is better or some shit.
