re: Auburn lost to Bama by 18...falls 1. LSU holds Bama to 10...fell 11 spots

Had they watched the game, they certainly would have had to admit the losses weren't all that different. The main difference was Bama turnovers deep in their own territory. Without those, it's entirely likely Auburn would have been held scoreless and have given up more points. Some of the discrepancy can be attributed to so many ranked teams losing recently, but not all of it. They could also be looking at Auburn's injury situation, I guess. It's a fair (but pointless because there's nothing to be done about it now) complaint.

Also, the SEC offices are in Birmingham. That's relevant somehow.
