Shouldn’t SEC champ have auto bid regardless of record?

I guess I don’t get why the power conferences don’t have playoff bids.

It’s the age old argument. Best teams or most deserving .

In the expanded playoffs they will. Under this current format, no not with 3 losses.

I’ve always been a proponent of conference champions of power five get automatic bid regardless of the record. However many they want to add on top of that through rankings, beauty contests, or whatever… I guess fine by me, but conf champs = in.

The exact reason they are expanding playoffs.
This would be the absolute best season for an 8-12 team playoff. It’s a damn shame we’re missing some of these matchups in one big bracket

No, take best teams. Big problem looming if they picking conference champions in place of highly ranked teams. With a 12 team playoff how would job like a top ten LSU team excluded from playoffs due to mediocre conference champions.

In the current format, automatic bids would be a bad idea in my opinion. Imagine a 3 loss LSU making it over a 1 loss Georgia or imagine a 4 loss Purdue making it in over a 1 loss Michigan. While most on this board would be fine with that, now imagine the tables turned and a 3 loss SEC East team making it over a 1 loss LSU. Yalls faces would melt and you know it.

How many losses do we have?
How many losses would UGA have?

In the new playoff they essentially do. Top 6 conf champions get auto bid. Hard to see SEC not in Top 6 conferences.
This is why you dont want to get rid of divisions. If we dont have divisions then this year then we are not in the SECCG. And if we were in the 12 team playoff we could still make it as conf champion tonight. Take divisions away that is all gone.

Green Bay won the Super Bowl with 6 losses.
