Semi-interesting stat to note that all 6 non SEC P5 division winners lost their bowl games. Not sure how many times that’s happened that so many division winners lost their bowl games.

PAC-12
Utah: L Rose Bowl to PSU 35-21
So Cal: L Cotton Bowl to Tulane 46-45

ACC
UNC: L Holiday Bowl to Oregon 28-27
Clemson: L Orange Bowl to UT 31-14

Big 10
Michigan: L Fiesta Bowl to TCU 51-45
Purdue: L Citrus Bowl to LSU 63-7

SEC
LSU: W Citrus Bowl vs Purdue 63-7
UGA: W Peach Bowl vs Ohio St 42-41

Now, the Big 12 doesn’t have divisions, but if we want to include their top 2:

KSU: L Sugar Bowl to Bama 45-20
TCU: W Fiesta Bowl vs Michigan 51-45
TCU: L to UGA in National Championship 65-7

So non SEC division winners went 0-6 in bowl games, 1-8 if you want to include the Big 12’s championship participants.

Why are SEC fanbases so upset that teams from other conferences also go to bowl games

Pretty sure it's just an observation.

Always an SEC SEC circle jerk this time of year, when really it should just be Georgia laughing at everyone.

Now it’s back to pointing fingers about poor schedules, even though everyone plays in the SEC SEC…

There’s an Arkansas fan who has spent the past month arguing for Alabama at length. They’re fricking weird.

It wasn’t a month ago we had Ohio state and Michigan fans on this board lighting up the SEC because Florida lost and the SEC was going to get exposed. There’s a reason SEC fans get loud now.

Jon Ham does not represent the rest of us. And fans of team in the SEC just like pointing out it’s still the best conference by a lot.

But why?

Saints fans won’t be chanting NFC South in the playoffs.

Yay, a team my school has to recruit and compete against won the natty. What does that do for my school?

Who did that? The few troll accounts.

Everyone knew UGA was good, and UGA is who won
