Shouldn't an 8-4 SEC team get a little better bowl bid than Weedeater or Liberty?
Should, but bowls quit being about rewarding teams long ago.
If I had my way, here's how it would go down:
BCS Games: SEC Champion, Alabama
Capital One - SEC Championship Loser
Cotton Bowl - South Carolina
Outback Bowl - LSU
Peach Bowl - Texas A&M
Gator Bowl: Vandy (by beating UGA)
No other bowls would exist. 8-4 should be the minimum, and not a guarantee.
But if I had to go all the way:
Music City Bowl: Georgia
Liberty Bowl: Ole Miss
Compass Bowl: MSU

In 2001, UGA was 8-3 while Arkansas was 7-4, and UGA beat Arkansas head to head. Yet Arkansas went to the cotton and UGA went to music city. Bowls care about money and matchups, not who is the X-ranked team in a certain conference.
UGA fans travel so we have that going for us over vandy, plus we're a far bigger TV draw.
