Sorry, this makes no sense. So you are saying two POD champs will be left out of the SECCG? That means every year two PODS are worthless. Why go to PODS then?


Because it sets up the SEC to have 2 teams in the SEC Champ game and 1 or 2 teams with 1 or 2 losses to get at large bids for playoffs.

By creating a semifinal for the SEC championship game you give 2 of your top 4 an extra loss which hurts your chance of getting 3-4 teams in the playoffs

This is true

Which is why you only want to have a single championship game and not three of the four better teams ending with a loss

Is there any format that doesn't do this?
