I have taken the last 12 national champions in college football that have come from the SEC and seeded them. It is now your job to vote on them in order for us to crown a SEC Rant Champion.

They are seeded as follows:

The Herp Region

#12 2007 LSU Tigers
#5 2012 Alabama Crimson Tide

BYE Team: #4 1996 Florida Gators


The Derp Region

#11 1980 Georgia Bulldogs
#6 2003 LSU Tigers

BYE Team: #3 2009 Alabama Crimson Tide


The Germans Region

#10 2006 Florida Gators
#7 2010 Auburn Tigers

BYE Team: #2 2008 Florida Gators


The Updykes Region

#9 1998 Tennessee Volunteers
#8 1992 Alabama Crimson Tide

BYE Team: #1 2011 Alabama Crimson Tide



We'll begin the voting in the Herp Region. #12 2007 LSU vs. #5 2012 Alabama. The team with the most votes advances.

'92 Bama team should be higher seeded than '10 Auburn. Cam would get shut down in all honesty, that D was that good.

I agree on 04 Auburn. That was one of the better SEC teams of the BCS era. They were undefeated, they were awesome in all 3 phases, and they had 4 first rd draft picks from that year alone. They only had one game in doubt in the 4th qtr in the regular season (10-9 LSU IIRC). It was unfortunate that they were in the same year as 04 USC. That was the best college team I have seen to date. Although 01 Miami may have been more talented, I think 04 USC was a better college team.

Good summary, especially given your perspective.

The one edge 2010 had on 2004 for Auburn was a refusal to lose, but 2004 was the epitome of a complete football team.

I'm calling the 12/5 upset...

But that 2007 LSU team was the flukiest EVER.

I would have seeded '92 Alabama higher but when you compare their strength of schedule, '10 Auburn wins out in that department. Alabama faced only one decent team in the regular season in 1992 (Tennessee). The final score in that game was 17-10.
