Just like it did the Big 10 pre-2000? ESPN is going to promote, and talk about who is playing good football. Should they spend a lot of time covering UM and Ohio State over Auburn and Alabama? One rivalry is a playoff game, and the other hasn't mattered in over a decade. Don't blame ESPN, blame the shitty football in other conferences.


This is EXACTLY what people are talking about. ESPN has brainwashed the masses into believing that no other conference plays good football except the SEC. Its that type of promoting that leads to comments like "Dont blame ESPN, blame shitty football in other conferences". If you actually read the article, it points out how there is just that...shitty football being played by half the conference. That is something SEC fans just dont want to hear.

Who is playing good football? The Big 12 has KSU, and TCU. Other than that, I am not seeing any good teams. And the playoff committe seems to agree.

And im not advocating the B1G here. I realize our conference needs to play better as a whole, but there ARE good teams in the B1G. This is more so for the PAC12 and BIG 12, which to me are WAAAY undervalued in these rankings.

The SECW is 50 something - 1 playing outside the division.

7 teams, one loss.
