re: Saban thoughts on the playoffs

If you don’t win your division you shouldn’t make the playoffs. Period.

So if divisions matter so much then why is the SEC doing away with it? Why did the Big12 go so long without divisions? Division are over rated. When you look at the East, you could have a really good team that losses to UGA and best 2 teams from the west and be the 2nd best team in the SEC and by your logic only diivison winner goes. This is a flawed metric and that’s why the SEC getting away from it.
