compared to any SEC team they have a soft schedule that leaves them fresh and roster mostly intact by the time playoffs roll around. Don't underestimate how much attrition will determine who is left standing at the end, not necessarily the best team.

This is pretty much what the entire "well the B1G won the last 3 natties" debate boils down to & should be reposted every time that comment comes up.

The SEC has more guys drafted (from FEWER total teams too) for a reason. We just don't have the luxury of sitting the 1st string when we play Arkansas 5x per year
