The consensus is that BAMA makes the playoff.
OK.

But if you'll allow a hypithetocal:

Let's say BAMA beats OU
Ole Miss Beats UK
Carolina beats LSU
Mizzou beats Aggie

That would've made 4 more SEC teams with 10 wins.

BAMA would've played in the champ game and uga wouldn't have.

So let's say the same thing happened in the SECCG and tejas lost to BAMA. BAMA and Tejas would be in.

So that would mean

Ole Miss
Carolina
Mizzou
Uga
Tenner
Would be sitting with 10 wins.

Who makes the playoff?

This system is meant to frick the SEC. All of the other people saying otherwise and laughing at BAMA are idiots.

Not sure what would happen.

But I can tell you what does happen when 6/6 OU beats Bama.

I get it. I do. My point is that had there been another 10 win team in the SEC, they still get fricked.

That's the point.

The SEC's strength used to be that it was the toughest conference. The new system has made that a liability.

Say BAMA still loses to OU, but the rest of that scenario played out.

Uga and Tejas are still in. But ole miss, tenner, Carolina, mizzou, all have 10 wins and three are still on the outside looking in.

The idea of 3 10-2 SEC teams getting left out of the playoff is fricking awful.

If we’d beat Oklahoma we’d be 5th seed like Texas or in the top four with a win in the SEC championship game. Sucks really, we stunk it up and played like shite in the one game that really mattered.

I loved beating LSU and Auburn though and was proud of the team then.

Yeah. I agree.

But if everyone is OK with 3 10-2 SEC teams getting left out then Idk. That sucks though. It's hard AF to win 10 in the regular season in the SEC.

A mid-major just won 11 in the ACC.
A Pac12 team just won 13 in the Big10.
A Pac12 team that never won the Pac12 just won the BigXII.

Couldn't agree more.
