No one in the world is without bias

But we must do our best to lessen bias

Hiring head officials who graduated from bama or who have daughters attending bama is the opposite of trying to prevent bias

There is a conspiracy
It is not spoken but it occurs with a wink and a pat on the back

The fact
That the head of sec replay booth is a huge bama booster is a big problem

The fact that he was allowed anywhere near replay booth in 2009 LSU bama game was criminal

And we saw how that one call gave bama the win and allowed them to get to nc game

Agreed. even the most well meaning of us are subject to that reality. Whether it's believing our child is the prettiest or the smartest or most talented, to the fact that our idea is better than everyone else's, to having it effect our judgement when it comes to things which we're passionate about.

It's conformation bias, and in most cases we try and adjust for it.

In this case, we should be doing that by trying to take any and all potential bias out of the system. Instead, we seem to be pretending that in OUR case (the SEC that is) this very real phenomenon does not come into play.
