College football is a business.

The non-playoff bowls are gonna call the CFP committee and Conference Commissioners and tell them who they want.

The CFP members have zero skin in the game in terms of money.

CFP committee will call the shots on the top 4 but after that get ready to be surprised. Ticket sales will be a prime consideration.

You can run your traps about UF all day but one fact remains:
Mullen came from UF to give you a small taste of our success. When he leaves soon for greener pastures, same old Mississippi State

UF has the biggest name, biggest fanbase, most money, travels best, and is most deserving. Nobody cares about miss st. or any of the other little irrelevant west teams. UF to Sugar due to superiority.

The fact remains State had an SEC Championship more than 50 years before Florida.

If the SEC is serious about putting Baylor or Oklahoma in their place they will send somebody that can do the job.

Aggies beat both of them by 4 TD's last time we played.
Did you get a crystal ball, though? Because we got one the last time we played Oklahoma.

I can live with MSU, that'd be cool but Ole Miss making it with the same record despite being blown out by Florida in a game far , far less competitive than the 4 TD margin indicated would be some bullshite.

Florida is garbage just face it. You play in a garbage division inside. Ole Miss is your best win and they would blow you out of the water now.

UF struggled badly to send people to the Louisville sugar bowl a few years.

Every trailer park in Mississippi would empty into the Superdome if either of them made it into the Sugar Bowl.

Not a chance. Hell they may not get it even if they beat FSUand lose to Bama


I can't see Ole Miss being ranked higher then a team killed them and had two less losses in regular season. But maybe we will get to find out. Maybe UF will help you guys and beat BAMA. If you would make it to the sugar bowl over a team that killed you then you should make it over a team you beat .

After Florida loses to FSU and Bama. Who does the sugar bowl invite? Winner of egg bowl or winner of A&M/LSU? Or do they stick to Florida?
UF controls their own bowl destiny over the next 2 weeks.......

Go 0-2 UF to Citrus bowl

Go 1-1 UF to Sugar bowl

Go 2-0 UF to Playoffs

I don't know why people can't understand this system. The rankings come out Tuesday. I'm looking at UF around 9-10, OM around 15-18, and MSU around 20-23. No LSU or A&M. If UF loses both, especially in bad fashion, they'll drop below the Egg winner. Also, there is no way that the LSU-A&M winner will be able to jump the Egg winner. So, there it is. State or OM would sell it out in a day. For State you also have it being Dak's last game, just like Tebow's in 09, and for OM the old traditional team making an appearance for the first time in 46 years since Archie played.

Some of the more rational Florida fans understand they just aren't as good without Grier and wouldn't be in the position they are in without him. How is it a surprise to some that losing your best player makes you less of a team? If UF beats FSU then they absolutely deserve to be in the Sugar Bowl. Lose the next 2 however, and why would UF even want to be invited to the Sugar Bowl? They won't be but I don't even understand why they would want to. They wouldn't sell half those tickets and probably completely burn that bridge. It's still pretty scorched from the last time they played there.

Yall really packed the house and represented the SEC so well last time. The last 2 times actually.

The secondary market remains flooded with plenty of seats and Louisville and Florida haven’t sold out of their allotment of 17,500 tickets. In fact, Florida isn’t even close.

Florida, which came up 5,000 tickets short of selling its allotment for the 2010 Sugar Bowl, Tim Tebow’s final game, appears it could be stuck with as many as 10,000 seats. The Gators’ University Athletic Association, charged with selling the allotment, could face having to eat $1.5 million or more from the shortfall.
