Alabama got dominated by Auburn on both sides of the ball


This is rather false. We rushed for over 200 yards, and held Kerryon to 3.5 YPC. Auburn only outgained us by a total of 30 yards - even though they held the ball for 13 minutes longer. We had two running backs averaging over 7 YPC.

They beat us soundly overall, but we were not dominated on either side.

Yeah the conference champ thing is a joke. The 2 best teams in the SEC may be in the west this year just in the Big 10 both may be in the division with OSU & PSU. The point is it is the best 4 teams which could be from the same conference, division, etc.

Someone already pointed out the main issue is how we determine who is the best with the so called top teams barely going head to head or have the same common opponent. Using conference champs is just a cop out.
