re: Big 12 better than the SEC, at least at the top

Don't put a lot of stock in that Texas win over Georgia. The Sugar Bowl should withhold Georgia's cut of the payoff for being a no-show.

Something that is happening in post-season play now is how irrelevant the bowl games are becoming. If they go to an 8 team playoff the large bowls are history, imo. To keep the bowls relevant, for the time being, bowls should match-up teams without regard for bowl tie-ins. Have the other New Years bowls have some kind of rotating pecking order. This might keep some interest in the non-playoff bowls.
