    I admire what Harbaugh has done with the Michigan program, although all then goings on there make me think he's a pretty unethical guy. I just think Saban has done maybe his best job in getting his team to get better and better as the season has progressed and given almost a month to prepare, he'll be hard to beat. I'm pulling for a Washington/Michigan title game, but think it might be Bama/Texas.

    My gut tells me Saban wins another championship.
    He schools Harbaugh and can't see him losing twice in the same year to Texas.

    Although I would like to see Michigan/Washington Championship game I see Bama/Texas!

    I'd like to see Bama play Washington so those two teams are my preferences in these semifinal games.

    Whomever gets through...we are in for some enjoyable entertaining and competitive football this year!

    Milroe returning for senior season next fall and will be Heisman front runner. Perhaps pursuing another title.

    You'd think Saban would want to be there.

    I do think “Hail to the victors” is one of the best team songs.

    I just checked and the CFP Top 25 final rankings has 6 SEC teams. So far: 5-0. Scores so far:

    63-3 Georgia (against higher seed)
    14-3 Missouri (against higher seed)
    38-25 Ole Miss (against higher seed)
    35-31 LSU
    35-0 Tennessee (against higher seed)
