I would be ecstatic if the SEC could have 3 #1 seeds some day like the ACC has this year. It just gives us more respect as a conference


"respect" is just like upvotes or reddit karma, it's fun to talk about but what does it mean for real life?

In your scenario you would like the SEC to have 3 or 4 #1 seeds (obviously your team being one of them). Which looks great for "The SEC" but how good is that for your team? I mean hell, in 1995 landers had probably the best team he ever had at UGA, beat UT twice during the season (I believe, may be wrong there) then lost to them in the national title game. Sure we can chant "all SEC finals baybee!" but in reality it would have been much better having UT suck and us play someone else, probably leading ot a national title.

Here’s the deal - whenever two teams play we will usually want one of those two teams to win, especially if we are familiar with one of the teams we are watching. I mean- if two smaller schools from California that I have never heard of play each other I won’t care but if say Stanford plays USC, I will probably lean towards one of those schools winning.
