  • C-Span Caller Complains About Alabama Not Making CFB Playoff During Inauguration


    Published|Updated

    Even on historic days in American history, like on Monday when Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th President of the United States, college football is top of mind for Alabama Crimson Tide fans. 

    During C-SPAN’s coverage of the inauguration, a college football fan decided to not only call in and voice a bit of displeasure in the American people electing Trump to become President for a second term but also take aim at the College Football Playoff selection committee leaving the Tide out of the Playoff this year.

    “I’m a bit disappointed in how the election turned out,” the caller says. “While I’m disappointed in the American people and their desire to see another four years under Trump, I’m a bit more disappointed in the selection committee for not picking Alabama for the College Football Playoff Finals.”

    The caller wrapping up, or being hung up on, by saying “truly dark times in America” is perfect. We can go ahead and add this one to the inauguration day Hall of Fame.

    It’s fair to assume that the caller was trolling when he brought up Alabama and the CFB Playoff, but for the sake of the story being even funnier, let’s play along that they were completely serious.

    The 2025 College Football Playoff field was announced well over four weeks ago, yet some fans still aren’t over the fact that Alabama was left out. The caller to phone in and complain about Bama not getting in on the same day Notre Dame and Ohio State will play for the national championship is some peak, high-level content.

    In all seriousness, there are plenty of people across the state of Alabama who will turn on Monday night’s national title game, see a few plays, and legitimately think ‘no doubt in my mind that Alabama would beat both of these teams.’

    God bless America, and God bless college football.





    On a recent episode of C-Span, a caller expressed their frustration over the University of Alabama not making it to the College Football Playoff during the presidential inauguration. The caller argued that Alabama’s absence from the playoff was a major disappointment and left a void in the excitement of the event.

    Many viewers were quick to chime in on social media, with some agreeing with the caller’s sentiments and others dismissing them as trivial in the grand scheme of the inauguration. The debate over the importance of college football in relation to major national events continues to be a hot topic of discussion.

    What do you think? Should Alabama’s absence from the College Football Playoff have been a topic of concern during the presidential inauguration, or is it simply a matter of personal preference? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

  • C-SPAN caller disrupts Trump inauguration coverage, blasts CFP for leaving Alabama out


    C-SPAN’s coverage of Donald Trump’s inauguration Monday was briefly derailed by a caller who believed the College Football Playoff committee wronged the Alabama Crimson Tide.

    “I’m a bit more disappointed in the selection committee for not picking Alabama for the College Football Playoff finals,” the caller said. “Accepting inferior teams like SMU and Indiana … truly dark times in America.”

    The caller was quickly cut off.

    The CFP national championship between Notre Dame and Ohio State takes place Monday night in Atlanta.

    For those that need a refresher, the Tide was one spot outside of the College Football Playoff field, with SMU taking the final spot in the bracket ahead of Alabama.

    The decision made for quite the debate in college football circles.

    The Mustangs fell for the second time in their season when they lost in the ACC championship game. Meanwhile, Alabama had three losses and didn’t qualify for the SEC Championship Game. However, SMU lacked the marquee wins the Crimson Tide had.

    “We looked at the number of wins Alabama had against ranked opponents,” CFP selection committee chair Warde Manuel said of the decision last month. “We looked at SMU’s schedule. They were undefeated in-conference. Their losses were to ranked teams. But we also looked at Alabama’s losses to unranked teams (Vanderbilt and Oklahoma). It was quite a debate.”

    It was one of just many unusual moments of Trump’s inauguration day. Trump said he is going to rename the Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America. Meanwhile, Carrie Underwood performed, despite a technical glitch that left people even more impressed with the singer’s performance.

    On January 20th, as millions tuned in to watch President Donald Trump’s inauguration, one unexpected caller managed to steal the spotlight. A caller on C-SPAN disrupted the coverage to blast the College Football Playoff for leaving out the University of Alabama.

    In a passionate tirade, the caller expressed their frustration with the CFP selection committee’s decision to exclude Alabama from the playoff, despite their impressive record and strong performance throughout the season. The caller argued that Alabama deserved a spot in the playoff and criticized the committee for what they perceived as unfair treatment.

    The unexpected outburst caught the hosts and viewers off guard, but it also sparked a lively debate on social media. Some praised the caller for standing up for their team, while others criticized them for hijacking the coverage of a historic event.

    Regardless of where you stand on the issue, one thing is clear: sports fans are passionate and will go to great lengths to defend their team. And in this case, it was a C-SPAN caller who made sure that their voice was heard, even during a moment as significant as a presidential inauguration.
