I like watching SEC games, but many of you a middle school delusional. People say that the SEC eats each other up. That's what conferences do and the Big 10 is probably the biggest example. They play 9 conference games, so half the conference gets an extra loss. If they only played 8, how many teams would be 9-2 or 8-3. They all play another power 4 team and you hardly see FCS teams (like Mercer). I would certainly take Nebraska over Oklahoma any day. Many of these problems would go away if the SEC scheduled 9 conference games and 1 extra power 4 team. the main reason for this easier scheduling is to get more teams bowl eligible and better chance at more playoff spots. I suggest you really take a look at how some of the ranked SEC teams really challenged themselves this year. GA, SC seem to have the hardest. Bama played a tougher conference schedule, but non-conf was easy + Mercer. Texas played nobody, Missouri played a weak schedule and got destroyed twice. Ole Miss had an easy schedule and look who they lost to and they're whining. GA and Bama have been the toast of the town for several years and Ohio St. with recently MI have been in the top tier. Now Oregon is here. If I were the Big 10, I would reschedule down to 8 conference games and add FCS teams to the schedule and watch how many teams get ranked higher than they should. This playing away in the SEC is no harder than the road environments in the Big 10. Make the Std. to play 9 conference games and 1 other Power 4 and watch how the rankings shake out more realistic. Also, if ND wants to stay independent, they should play 10 Power 4 teams and no FCS games. They can't get 1 of the top 4 seeds, so they will always be at a disadvantage in the playoffs
