Why Alabama REFUSED to Kill the Ohio State Series

View show details

The Alabama Crimson Tide made a statement without saying a word. While major programs across college football are backing away from risky nonconference games, Alabama chose to keep its blockbuster matchup with the Ohio State Buckeyes alive.

In this episode, we break down why Alabama’s pride — in the best possible way — may have saved one of the sport’s biggest future showdowns. Is this about confidence? Brand power? SEC mentality?

Or does Alabama simply believe elite programs should still play elite opponents? Meanwhile, Florida State Seminoles and the Georgia Bulldogs reportedly won’t face each other, marking the exact opposite approach in an era where strength of schedule suddenly feels optional.

We discuss what this means for the future of college football scheduling, playoff politics, TV value, and whether powerhouse programs are becoming too cautious.
