If it is all about “head to head” match ups and strength of schedule by the Playoff committee.

Kentucky beat Florida
Kentucky and Florida have similar SOS.

I can only assume their victory at LSU was more impressive than our Home victory over Miss State?

But lets be honest its name recognition just like when we have a subpar basketball year and and still make the NCAA

It isn't, and the committee has never said that it is. You lost to the god awful Tennessee Vols by 3 TDs, and it wasn't some early season fluke.

What did the Kentucky name have to do with getting your fudge packed by one of the shittiest teams in the conference?

Eh, we've been too inconsistent to draw many conclusions from that. Nothing about our team this season was predictable beyond the fact that our OL sucked and would have false starts at crucial moments.

We also had a freak game against UF -- 6 turnovers.

Head to Head the advantage is to UK. Clearly UK was the better team when they played UF.

However, UF beat LSU, a top 10 team. UF does not have a bad loss. All the teams that beat UF are now ranked. UF has been rated very high for compared to our record since the LSU victory.

If UK does not lose to UTk and y'all are ranked in the top 10 ahead of UF.

All of Florida's losses at in the top 25. Mizzou is the worst loss and they are 8-4.

Kentucky got destroyed by Tennessee.
