LSU has an advantage with that.


And I personally, accept that. Just wanted to show that:

Slive is sly. No reason to go to 9 games until the SEC is penalized on strength of schedule.


Trouble is I can see that happening this year. Say Ohio State and Oregon are undefeated, as well as... oh, I dunno... A&M. I think A&M's shitty SOS keeps them out. Bama's SOS isn't much better, but they'd still get in on reputation. (LSU fans: shut up. With your SOS and an undefeated season you'll definitely be in.)

SOS to me becomes even more important in 2014. With a 9-game SEC schedule I can easily see 2 SEC teams in the playoff and possibly 3 (though that would never be allowed).

Plus there's the whole "don't screw the season-ticket holders by playing patsies" thing. If I was a season-ticket holder I'd have a stronger opinion about this.
