Saban was lobbying hard to make this CFP. He was given air time to do it.

Dabo was asked to make his case for Clemson being in the CFP. His response: “we had our opportunities to handle what we control and we didn’t do it.”

Pretty admirable response.

Saban was also the next team out and lost 2 games by a combined 2 points, both on the last play of the game.

Clemson has no case. Saban’s, while not great, almost got in. Not to mention, if Alabama got in, they’d probably have the 2nd best odds to win it.

Perhaps. But neither team deserved to be in the playoff. Doesn't matter if you were #5 or #10. Undeserving is undeserving. At least Dabo was man enough to admit they had their chances to secure it and didn't do it. And, I like Saban. I was a little shocked at how shameless he was yesterday when Bama clearly had not earned a spot.

At least he did. our ad would be watching women's basketball.
What do ADs have to do with this? Dabo and Saban are coaches....not ADs. Didn't hear a peep out of Clemson's or Alabama's AD.

Promote the program. Bamas did a lot the other night. I bet a few more AD's will be promoting Heisman candidates here soon. Did you forget the CJ Spiller Heisman campaign. We tried to do it with clowney but came up really short.

Spiller's also came up short. He does quite a bit to promote the athletic programs....we supposedly got exactly the matchup and bowl we wanted after TAMU ruined our Citrus possibility. Bama's also failed.....maybe it's more effective to work the system behind the scenes instead of whining and begging in public.

Both help. Public you can get more ridicule but who's not going to listen to Saban. He has pull.
