I love how all the pundits presume that the three unbeatens ahead of the SEC crowd will all remain unbeaten. Have none of these people ever learned from history? Who thought before Saturday that A&M would beat unbeaten Bama? Not even A&M fans thought it possible.
Notre Dame has to play at USC. K-State has a road game at Baylor and finishes with a much improved Texas team. Oregon still has three tough games left (Stanford, at Corvallis and probably USC again). And you know how much tighter teams play the closer they get to finishing unbeaten. If any two of those three fall, then a one-loss SEC team will jump them.

Quite obviously. But looking at the schedule, it would have to be a huge upset of two of those top 3 unbeatens for this to happen--and most don't see that happening. What is so hard to understand about that?
The media was riding bama's pecker until Texas A&M beat em in T-town. What are they supposed to do now? Make excuses for an SEC team to be able to jump into the game? (FWIW some of them have done this)

Oregona will not lose. No chance.

Did you say that last week about Bama? I will say, of the three, Oregon is the one I think has the lowest chance of losing. I also think Oregon is the one team of the three that COULD beat any of the SEC possibilities. Not WOULD beat, COULD beat.

Lane Kiff is going to take care of O and ND...
then UGA wins a close one and we go kill Kstate
the SEC streak does not end

Texas won't beat K-State..they have two weeks to prepare for the game that will likely launch them to the NCG..What does Tejas have to play for? Mack Brown's irritable rash from uncontrollable bowel movements?
And Oregon will curbstomp USC..what makes you think their D could slow down Oregon?
Notre Dame could lose..but that's the most likely of the three and still ND will be favored

that's nice and all but not all conferences are the SEC
we all know anyone in the SEC can generally beat you almost any week
I watch all the games I can, and I feel very comfortable saying that KSU or Oregon will not lose in the regular season.
