Should Alabama Be Disqualified from the CFP .......

[frankbmd]

.....for scheduling a game with Mercer (???) in week 12? C’mon man.

Will an 83-0 win by the Tide impress anyone?

Years ago when schedules were lengthened to include more out of conference games, one could make a case perhaps for starting the season with a couple of cream puffs to fine tune the offense or defense and look at some of the younger players in live game situations, but scheduling Mercer in week 12 is indefensible.

I realize that schedules are completed years in advance, but I’m not aware of any predictions in the last decade suggesting that Mercer would be a ranked team in 2017.

I also do not understand why anyone in their right mind would want to attend such a game. Even the frat boys who celebrate each touchdown with a round of beer will either be gone or unconscious by halftime.

I would like to congratulate all the Alabama fans on their victory today before the opening kickoff. Roll Tide.

I also realize that Appalachian State beat Michigan in one of these mismatch games a few years ago, but then again it was only Michigan. Right Peter.
