Don't lose three games, especially one of those being to Vandy.

Kiffin lost to 4-8 Kentucky at home and just took a transfer commit from Sage Ryan.

He should sit this out

Honestly the only thing I'd change so far is the Top 4 seeds also get home games in the second round.

I like the certainty. Past years people would be saying SMU/Illinois could play with anyone given the chance.

Now we know.

13 through 16 seeds routinely get destroyed in the NCAA basketball tournament. I haven't seen one person in forty years scream that they should go back to being a 48 team tournament.

Ole Miss and Bama have no room to talk. Both of them had 2 of their 3 losses to teams that finished in the bottom half of the SEC. Don’t lose to bad teams late in the season and you’d make the playoffs.

You have the Sankey and B1G commissioner mindset that “our conferences have the most big name brand programs, so we deserve 4 autobids every year. Then let everyone else fight for the last 4 spots, but we’ll still probably argue for a 5th SEC team to make it too.”

It's funny seeing teams get boat-raced....teams we already knew were shitty....teams that played no one all year....

What a waste of money and time to host and play and broadcast these first round games..

The BCS formula would disagree with you, except for 1 team.

the only thing shocking about how this is playing out is media and fans mocking the SEC for daring to think they are good after 20 years of dominating.

Hopefully theyll AT LEAST trim it down to 8 next year



You are retarded if you think they trim it down, if anything they’ll add more teams

What about the original BCS formula before they watered it down to put more weight back on the voters?

Another blowout.


They have got to ignore conference champions and seed the 12 best teams

It doesn’t matter what you do

There is never 12 deserving teams in college football
