Do people think we would jump a 1-loss 'Bama?

If the loss prevents Bama from winning the SEC, the argument about a team that couldn't win its conference not belonging in the NCG would favor us. But if Bama's loss is to Auburn and Auburn wins the SEC, I can easily see them being ranked ahead of us (at least in the human polls).

None of this matters unless we win our conference. And that's something we do have control over. Beat SC... and Cal... and whoever the South serves up!
