That Yahoo author wrote 16 articles this week regarding hypothetical BCS playoffs in which the top 4 ranked teams faced off 1 vs 4 and 2 vs 3.

Those articles have inspired my idea. Each week, we could pretend to be the selection committee and seed the teams for a playoff following each year an SEC team made it to the BCS title game (1998, 2003, 2006-2013). Members that are actually contributing substantial posts to the topic would make an argument for a seeding and assess other people's arguments.

For organizational purposes, would it be better to just have one thread whose topic changes weekly?

The purpose of the thread(s) would be to reflect upon the greatest teams of the BCS era, particularly the SEC's.

Is your handle a play on jury selection?

Good idea.

I have a few ideas of my own, too, on some topics that haven't gotten nearly enough conversation:

1. Saban to Texas
2. Alabama's easy SEC schedule
3. Mark Richt losing control of his program.
4. Johnny Manziel's personal life.

My best idea is one that has not been covered and we really should talk it out: The 2011 BCS Championship and the fact that LSU and Alabama played a rematch.

Let me know what ya'll think - I'm ready to start threads as soon as you give me the word.

Hey I would like to see some of my favorite topics get some board time.

1. Mizzou yankess should go home.
2. Mizzou will get their arse kicked by fill in the blank and find out what the SEC is all about
3. The east is down.
4. The west is down.
5. The west would destroy the east.
6. The SEC is down.

That's a year old topic bud.

3. The east is down.
It was.

4. The west is down.
Probably not.
quote:

5. The west would destroy the east.
They did hold the h2h record but there was no "destroying".
quote:

6. The SEC is down.
Compared to the last 7 years? Yep. No national champ and 0-2 in BCS.

I know the 2011 season has been beaten to death, so we could just skip it. What about the other 8? If all these topics have been discussed extensively before, then that's one thing, but I doubt you could link me to those discussions since they don't exist.

Read CockRocket's response to your post. There you go. I don't know why people are acting like this an old topic. Yeah, we've probably talked about most of the teams that would be discussed here and there, but could you link topics dedicated to a hypothetical playoff each year the SEC won the national championship? I'd be surprised if you could.

Yes but it never get's old. I'm sure it will go on and on. And that's kinda the sarcastic point.

2017 is the earliest. I know you're scared of him but it's okay, only 5 more years at least.

Undefeated against Mizzou.

The East is down. There's only a couple folks that disagree.

I bet you might be able to find some people from Columbia that disagree. You can even take your pick of Columbia's. The one that finished #4 and won their bowl game, or the one that finished #5 and won their bowl game.

1. Auburn
2. Florida State

4. Ohio State

1 beats 4, 2 beats 3. 1 beats 2. Auburn national champs.

My argument: I'm right. Everybody else is wrong.
