College football fans tee off on Alabama after narrow LSU win

Look. Someone has to be ranked No. 2 in the College Football Playoff rankings, right? That’s just a fact.
Georgia is No. 1. No one is disputing that fact. If they are, they’re crazy.
But, on Saturday, No. 3 Michigan State lost to Purdue. No. 4 Oregon struggled against Washington. No. 5 Ohio State struggled vs. Nebraska. And, No. 6 Cincinnati nearly lost to Tulsa.
So, when Alabama escaped with a narrow 20-14 home win over LSU, fans were quick to call out the Tide for being overrated. You can see some of those tweets below:
Alabama does NOT belong in the Top-4

It’s crazy how Alabama, Ohio State, Oregon, Oklahoma, and Cincinnati all look very vulnerable and beatable and it’s impossible to ranks them properly and don’t look like theyll even win a playoff game
But I’m a Georgia fan so I don’t have to worry about that, stay bless y’all

Once again, though, who else are you going to put at No. 2? You can’t just leave the position vacant, after all.
