Agreed. The reason for taking MO & A&M was to give the SEC Network access to HO, DFW & the Midwest (MO). What do Tx & OK bring?

Making a SuperConference just makes it even harder for us to get to the NCG.
Maybe 2 x SEC Conf Champs (like Semi-Champs) with those GUARANTEED to be in the Final 6,8,12, whatever, while still leaving other strong teams a chance to qualify?

Nonsense, in a 12 team playoff, the SEC is getting 3 teams in. Stop and think about it, the SEC Champ is in and a top 4 Seed with a Bye (probably 1). The SEC runner up in Atlanta is a likely 5 seed.

The Big 12 is done that leaves the SEC, Big10, ACC and Pac 12 and Bruce Marshall from the Gold sheet was on ESPN 104.5 LSU's Baton rouge flagship station and he said USC and UCLA are not happy in the PAC12 and have hinted at joining the Big10 or even ACC, geography for Super Conferences is no longer an issue.

But current format, the 4 Conference champs get in, lets say CINN gets in as a 12th seed. That leaves 7 Wild-cards. You think the PAC12 is easily going to get 2 in, they have had trouble getting 1 in. The ACC, 2? doubt it, maybe if Notre Dame was in full time.

SO who gets those other 7 bids, lets say Notre Dame got 1, that is still 6, I can see again 3 SEC teams, the Runner up and 2 other wild cards and 3 Big10 teams getting in or maybe 2 other BIG10 and 1 PAC or ACC.
