I liked their chances a lot better before I watched the Arky vs. Bama game this weekend.
Florida has a lot of speed on the offensive side of the ball and it is in The Swamp. I can see Florida beating Bama 28-24. I prefer Florida to win this one...give Bama a loss just in case we fall to them. With that said, I'll give them a 35% chance of knocking Bama off the undefeated list.

Let's say the end of they year the top 3 teams are Bama, LSU and Oregon with LSU 13-0 and Bama 11-1 and oregon 12-1 and Pac 12 champs. Who makes it to the title game? Both would be rematches but Oregon would be their conference winner but Bama is from SEC...

Assuming you saying that just those three are in consideration…it would be LSU and Oregon because of the championship game giving you one more win. That and you will never have two teams from the same conference playing for the NC game with our current system.
I don’t see LSU making it through undefeated to be honest with you. We still have two more big away games and a tough schedule to get through, and Alabama, Florida, Arky and Tenn could all beat us.

Winner of this game would likely be our Rose Bowl opponent.

They are in opposite divisions so they are likely to meet again in the Big Ten title game.

I just realize that Florida really has not faced a opponent with a decent defense yet, should be a REAL test for them this weekend. I’m thinking the tide is going to roll right through Florida.

Exactly! The point spread was Bama+4

! Bama has the best defense I have ever seen

and their offense is a stereotypical SEC pound the ball down your throat type of offense. They aren't amazing, but complimented with that defense I believe they are the best team in the nation.
