That's awesome, I have 3 TVs (with cable boxes) and an Xbox One usually on the ESPN app, showing on my travel Xbox monitor.

But PIP is another dimension altogether. How many cable boxes are you using? Do you have two cable boxes going to the TV for the PIP?
I don't think so. I think the television has picture in picture capability, but honestly, I have no idea. Everything is wired in the walls, and I have basically two remotes for everything. All of the hardware is buried in the basement in a room I don't think I've been in five years. LOL. I have a good AV guy.

Alabama has shot itself in the foot a whole bunch of times today. They don't deserve to win, and it's rare you say that about a Saban team.

Weird shit happens in the Iron Bowl. Weird shit...Feels like this game should be played on Halloween every year.

Sounds stunningly cool. Your AV guy does sound like he's legit.

Jesus, don't want to play running back for Auburn right now.

Mayfield is done for the day, with 3 minutes left in the third. Backup QB, Murray, comes in, fires a dart on a 20 yard slant with a tiny window, receiver makes the catch, jukes a guy, breaks a tackle, and takes it to the house. Gotta love the Big 12.

It's Johnsons right arm now? Did he try to stiff arm someone on that last run, right before he tried to bounce it out?

It’s amazing that Saban can’t recruit a QB. The three that transferred after Hurts was named starter all failed to win starting job. And Hurts is just a guy

This Bama team shouldn't be in the playoff. A really uninspiring season and they were horrendous today.
They might not be. Given they’re now out of the SEC championship who the hell knows what’s going to happen.

My money is still on them making it, but it’s not 100%

I keep saying it, Wisconsin, Clemson, Oklahoma and Auburn if they all win next week. If one, or if more than one of them lose, all hell breaks loose, but that's the only way Alabama gets in.

I think you guys are being a little hard on Hurts. He's certainly not an NFL QB, but he's a pretty fantastic college quarterback, who has been saddled with very few weapons around him, given who Alabama should be able to recruit. Besides Ridley, they didn't have a single above average (or maybe even average) receiver on the team, they have no tight end to speak of, and frankly, their running backs weren't all that impressive either. Their defense has been carrying them for two years, and he was their entire offense this year, after Henry turned pro.

Miami is going to drop from # 2 to # 7. They are going to need to beat Clemson and get some help (Oklahoma or Wisconsin losing).

1. Clemson (assuming they beat USC)
2. Oklahoma
3. Wisconsin
4. Auburn
5. Georgia
6. Alabama
7. Miami
8. Ohio State

If Georgia wins they're in

Not a given SEC gets Auburn in if they win
Oh, Auburn is in if they win next week. A win against Alabama and two against Georgia? They're in. No doubt. Again, the committee look back at early season losses. They just don't. It's all about who is playing the best when the votes get counted.

They have a TE (the one who almost made the incredible catch)
Daboll doesn't use him
