The UGA and UF losses look bad, but the other games aren't ones that the SEC teams were supposed to win.
UT is historically a great program but they've been struggling recently, and Oregon would give any SEC team trouble.
OSU scheduled State so they could say that they beat an SEC team. The same could probably be said for Texas. I think it says a lot that other schools will hype up any game against an SEC team even if it's one that will likely have a 6-6 record.
If SC and Bama lost their opening games the bashing would be warranted. But, does anyone expect UT and UK to win this weekend?

You could say the same thing in reverse about all of the SEC's wins over other BCS AQ leagues, except maybe Auburn-Wazzu.

Soooooooo I get everyone shitting on Georgia for losing to MSU, Boise St, and UCF but you can suck a fat one if you wanna call losing @ the #8 teams house by 3 a "bad loss"
The SEC shouldn't be mad about that, Georgia fans can be by all means, but SEC fans and it's detractors can't call that a bad loss unless you wanna just say every loss is a bad loss. Then it works.

Huh? Florida's looks bad. We lost in the season opener on the road to a team currently ranked in the top 5, by 3 points. If there is such thing as a "good loss", that was one. And no I'm not claiming a moral victory, I'm just saying that that is not a bad loss in any way.
