Folly for a minute that Arkansas will beat LSU. If all three end up 7-1, we know there is a bcs related tie breaker that will determine who "wins" the sec west.
ECB's proposed plan would be this: use the 3 way tied teams' sec opponents conference records to determine a winner.
In other words look at who the three played in the sec east.
Bama played Tenn, vandy, and Florida.
LSU played Tenn, ky, and Florida
Ark played Tenn, vandy, and SC
Based on the above, and the fact that SC is the best team listed, ark played a tougher schedule, thus would be rewarded with the sec west "title".
By doing this, this takes out the human vote out of it.

I agree with Bama and LSU fan comments, really, but seriously do we want to put who goes to Atlanta in the hands of a bunch sports journalists in California and new York?

Why don't you look at all out of division games, including OOC?

Worst tiebreaker ever. We might as well have all three flip a quarter and the odd team out wins.

They won't match up. Bama plays a 9-1 Georgia southern tomorrow. No way you would say they are better than a 3 loss wvu team.

Arkansas beats LSU by 2 touchdowns then there should be no doubt in anyone's mind who should go to the SEC championship game.

True, but that's a pretty tall damn order.

Awful tie breaker. We don't get to decide which teams from the East we play. Its on a rotation.
