What's this?

Remember the good ol' days when wins and losses mattered when evaluating

teams?

Apparently, Bama just needs to pass the "eye" test. I heard Heather Dinich saying the other day that Ohio State's loss to Oregon happened really early in the season -- as if that means the loss didn't count. I mean, if losses don't really matter in September, why even play the games. It drives me nuts when people say crap like that. The goal is to WIN. Winning is how we keep score. Winning is how we determine who is best. Acting like losses in September don't matter is such an inane and nonsensical take.
