That's a much bigger if than anything that happened last year, in my opinion. While I like what this team has done so far, I really, really don't think we will go undefeated the rest of the way.

SEC might be in trouble if no one SEC team takes charge of the conference. On the other hand, it's hard to believe any one loss SEC team won't make it to the BCS NC.

Certainly not from the East (UGA, UF). But the SEC W is not as strong, plus Bama and LSU play weak OOC schedules. I think it would be tough now with USC if their toughest opponent (OSU) finishes strong

I don't know about that. Weak ooc schedule should easily be offset by a conference championship game, wouldn't you think?

The great PR the SEC championship game gets is second to none. Now try to imagine either a one loss Bama or LSU team winning convincingly over say a very highly ranked one loss Gator football team that could be ranked as high as say #2.

Beating a 1-loss Florida team would probably do it. Florida would likely be #1 or #2 in the BCS and avenging our only loss would propel us.

But any other case, might require a lot of luck
