I'm guessing this is at least partly because playing in the SEC artificially deflates your win totals and you end up playing teams that are beneath you.

Actually, I agree. We end up ranked lower at the end of the season than the team's true capabilities due to tough SEC losses, then get matched against somewhat inferior teams with similar (or higher) poll rankings due to them playing a weaker schedule. Considering the range of eras, and players, and coaches, it's the only explanation I can think of.
