Seems anecdotal. SEC is 10-5 against non-conference this year. No other conference has a non-conference record even close. Four ACC v SEC games coming up in a week. SEC probably goes 3-1, making them 13-6 for the year against non-conference. I think that's convincing enough to underweight their conference losses when picking playoff teams.

That is the hand-waving they will use to get a three loss Alabama team in.  When you throw the non-conference argument on the table you overlook the fact that Alabama lost to Vanderbilt.  When you peel the onion back you find out the conference losses should be pulling them down as a whole.  Georgia lost to a now three loss Alabama and Ole Miss who got punked by at the time what was a very mediocre Gator team.  The rankings of the SEC teams has been artificially high because well...$.

Or is that just how college football is going to look going forward?  Maybe with the transfer portal we are getting much better parity and this year’s national champ isn’t a forgone conclusion like in years past. I still got money on Ohio State to win it all, but they should’ve lost to Nebraska and did lose to Oregon who nearly got beat by Wisconsin and Boise. Point being, the playing field appears to be more level this season for sure and perhaps SEC teams beating up on each other will be the new normal. I’m not advocating for Alabama, like Finebaum or something, but I’m glad we’ll get to watch it play out in real time in the playoffs. The only thing I’m pissed about is Notre Dame’s schedule full of garbage and never having to be accountable…Unless NIU shows up in South Bend.

As a non-member of the SEC faith, I think there are SEC teams (Georgia and Tennessee) that have a far better argument than a team like Miami. 

Miami, who squeaked out a 4 pt win over VT, a 1 PT win over Cal, and who lost to GT. I'd say Miami is equivalent to 8-3 SC. SC's 3 loses were to Bama, LSU, and Miss. Two of those loses were by 3 pts or less.

Come on dude....just be honest, you hate Miami almost as much as you hate me. 

Georgia has two LOSSES...not "squeaked out wins"...outright losses. 

They struggled with a Miss State team that is 2-10 overall and 0-8 on conference play.

They squeaked past Kentucky by ONE point, a team that is 4-7 overall and 1-7 in conference play.

Then comes the game against GT, the only team to BEAT MIAMI.  GT took the Bulldogs to EIGHT overtimes.  That was an epic game to watch, both teams had multiple chances to win.

On the line today…. Bragging rights, and Ryan Day’s mortgage.

True story. How great to have UT and TX A&M back at it again too?!

It’s been all over the local news how expensive those tickets were going for.

People paying Super Bowl money for a rivalry game (because if their is anything Aggies have it more money than sense).

I’m on the way to Disney world right now and the tickets were cheaper.

I see you waited an entire week to respond. After Georgia played GT.. Interesting you didn't mention anything about Tennessee. The rankings after last week have Miami-6, then Georgia, then Tennessee, so I'm not the only one unimpressed by a one loss Miami.

Somebody let Ryan Day know we hooked him up…

Holy shit!!  It’s official, I know nothing about college football

Just make the playoffs a round 16 teams, that way you can figure out who is really the best while still getting most of the SEC in regardless of record/ranking to make the money people happy because we all know that's what the sport is really about anyway.

Didn't know I was on a timeline to respond to you, living rent free in your head I guess.  Do you even have a team or just come here to throw $hit at the fan?

Kicking the field goal was an epic mistake.  Clemson gets beat today and still goes the ACC Championship game.  With the loss to Syracuse Miami likely won't make the cut (I think they are saying 40% chance), our defense wouldn't holdup anyway.

 

[Boomer6]

I rest my case on Miami being overrated.

 

Respond whenever you want, but bringing up a terrible Georgia performance against GT to prove your point is disingenuous. The discussion was concerning those 3 teams as of the end of week 13.

Sawyer should have been getting a game ball at the end for that interception, except the couching and play calls for the offense was so stupid as to piss away downs trying to run up the middle and “dominate the run.”

The one and only offensive drive that the team owned the field was a no huddle tempo offense and it was almost all in the air…. That tells me leaving these guys to think to long as couches is the problem, not the players getting 2 yards on a rush instead of 3-4.

Your boy Norvell got so mad after the game he refused to shake Napier's hand.

The Gators were not exactly being stellar members of the community.  And for the record, I abhor when Miami acts like this.  My rule as a player and a coach was act like you've been there before, celebrate but don't embarrass yourself, your team and your family.

Worst season in our programs history. We’re all mad.

What weekend of CFB.
