In college football, a HC can’t really build his roster, the way they deem fit, until year 3, which is tough these days due to lack of attrition of the transfer portal.

Did they get favoritism? Possibly. Bama lost to Vandy and Oklahoma. These things happen in college football. You mentioned Nebraska, but that was the 2nd game. He did pretty well the rest of the way. Better to have that bad game early on if you ask me
