Do you think a one loss SEC team can get in the title game ahead of

an undefeated FSU team given their schedule next season.
I'm debating this with a friend who's a FSU fan and he claims there's no way FSU will be left out of the title game if they go undefeated.
I say given their easy schedule a one loss SEC team would go before them.

Maybe if it's Alabama, whose one loss comes to LSU on the road.
They like giving Alabama rematches against LSU, so I wouldn't doubt it.

Also matters who else is undefeated. If no one else is, SEC one loss is going to go. Nowadays, if a major program like FSU is undefeated, they are going to go to the NC. But if there are 2 undefeated teams and neither of which are SEC teams then they get shutout. But really I see no way in which a one loss SEC team would get in over a zero loss FSU.

If Alabama gets another rematch against LSU next season, I'm going to murder everyone on this planet.

Lots of SEC hate out there. I just don't see a team with a loss jumping an unbeaten next year.

This, but most likely not.

If the other fricking conferences could just do their jobs and put out one undefeated team between the 5 of them, we wouldn't have had that god damn problem last year.
Just talking about this is getting me pissed off.

I somewhat agree, but say LSU is undefeated, preseason #1, #1 by the SEC championship game and lose in that game. Also, FSU is undefeated and ranked #2. LSU would drop behind FSU. Now if they were #3 and undefeated, that is where it gets complicated. And at this point, it would probably be a tossup.

Lot of variables here that could make it go either way. I think the SEC team would be ahead in the computer polls; so, as usual, it would come down to the voters. Which means:
when and who the SEC loss was to
which SEC team it is, face it pedigree matters
how strong the first place team is [because this scenario only makes sense if FSU is no. 2]...
So, if the no. 1 team is weak and is sharing first place votes with FSU, I don't think the third team jumps them.

FSU ain't going undefeated next year.
Posted on 2/27/12 at 3:34 pm to boXerrumble
Yeah, FSU will lose 3+ games like they always do.

I would agree with this. Weak schedule or not, the BCS likes unbeaten BCS-conference teams.

Probably not.... But they probably will beat UF again, for the third straight year.

I still can't believe ok state lost to fricking Iowa state.
LSU would have murdered ok state.

I doubt it. FSU has that name power. They'll choke a few away anyway like always so it's a moot point.

Not saying that FSU shouldn't make the BCSNC but they should definitely be punished in the ratings for playing 2 FCS teams. 
Posted on 2/27/12 at 5:38 pm to Hammond Tiger Fan
you probably have to qualify which SEC team and how the commentators go hot or cold on FSU as the year progresses
I think a name program like Bama or maybe LSU would have a shot if FSU doesn't blow people out and they win the SEC. Obviously we saw the voters choose a SEC team #2 even tho they lost at home this year - so people can do what they want with their ballots
