Yesterday, espn national college columnist says Arky, the #2 ranked SEC team, "doesn't deserve to be in the top 25."


Is that guy on the selection committee? Then who gives a shite?
Media definitely influences the selection committees. Last football season, the B1G was out of contention by midseason. We all knew the SEC would whittle itself down, but most people expected there to be a Big 12 team in the mix.

I think these guys are off-base, though. Kentucky has established itself as the class of this season, and LSU, A&M and Ole Miss all gave them a good fight (and are approaching/at 20 wins). They all, and Arkansas, could match up well with teams currently ranked.

There's a difference in media guys as a whole shitting on the conference vs. a hack writer or some B1G homers during a B1G broadcast.

For the large part I have yet to see a legitimate bracket projection that doesn't have at least 5 SEC teams in. Lunardi being one of those and he's pretty well the standard for media.
