re: Here are the facts about the SEC's bowl tie-ins & LSU's bowl chances

I'm not reading the whole thread but from what I've seen, the fact being overlooked is this: there's now an sec east team (mizzou) that's located in the west. This is the first time an sec east team could be more attractive to the cotton than an sec west team. Likewise the eastern bowl games would probably prefer an auburn over mizzou just based on lacation. So the trend of outback taking a top eastern and cotton taking the top west team is shot to pieces. Things could get crazy this year and no doubt will end up with LSU getting hosed again.
