Bammer missing playoffs

[poorhunter]

Only one ACC team and one Big 12 team get I'd think. Only way ACC gets two is if Miami doesn't play for conference championship and only has one loss still, I think SMU and Clemson have the inside track at conference championship right now.

The truth in the sec this year is out of the top 5-6 teams they are all flawed and there's not a huge difference in any of them. UGA and possibly Texas are slightly ahead but flawed. Next is Tenn,Bama and ole miss followed closely by A&M and sc. Sc may be playing better than anyone other than UGA right now. I don't think we can tell in Texas yet since they have only played one good sec team and they got beat at home by them. UGA or Texas seem to be the only ones playing possible championship level ball. Any of the others could heat up at any time. I think bama is too flawed with no ability to be accurate passing the ball. Tenn has the pieces but is way too inconsistent on throwing the ball and getting dumb penalties. Ole Miss at times can't protect their qb and don't have a really good rb and only one really good wr. Sc is just young and now gelling. A&M have a very young qb who is having growing pains as well and under their first year with their coach.

Exactly. The SEC is down this year in quality of play. They do not deserve 4 teams in the playoffs imo. Let's hope Texas, UT and Georgia all win this week so three can get in. The Big Ten should have 4 with Oregon, OSU, Penn St and IU…provided they win Saturday.

I'm less convinced the SEC is as bad as the W/L would suggest. The top teams aren't losing non conference games, they're either losing to top teams in the SEC or they're losing to other SEC teams. UT beating Bama and losing to UGA, while UGA loses to Bama but beats UT is excusable if these teams are equally capable. As far as having another conference loss on top, the SEC has always been that any given team is capable of beating any other team but not necessarily with consistency. There's always been upsets, but with NIL more evenly distributing talent, I think this type of outcome will be more common. What I disagree with is the idea that this somehow diminishes the SEC in relation to other conferences even though it would appear so on paper looking at wins and losses.
