7-0, 3-0 conference and the 3rd best team in SEC backs in instead of a team from the best conference. Shame!

I don't even really care much that the B1G didn't get in. It gave us a bunch of favorable bowl matchups, which is good for perception.

But Bama getting in still kinda irks me. The last three weeks of the season they were:

1) playing an FCS squad
2) losing to Auburn
3) sitting at home

That's not a playoff finish.

Big 10 is lucky they dodged LSU in the Capital One Bowl.

Preach.

Season used to matter.

Now it's like...aww frick the season...who cares.

It's about talent...then how did 2006-2008 USC get left out? They blew everyone out of the water talent-wise. But a loss mattered back then.

I guess Iron Bowl losses don't matter anymore - especially to a team that turned out to be not so special in Auburn.

Parameters have shifted - SEC-ESPN doing work.

The Big 10 not getting in the playoff is why they are doing so well in the bowls. How do you not see this?

well, they did go 2-2 against 3/4 of the Playoff teams.

and the loss at Clemson wasn't exactly a bad loss. 14-6 is a score that is boring to modern casual fans.

They'd rather see a 55-52 game with Wake-Texas A&M going toe-to-toe or a Central Florida-South Florida shootout.

I'm not really pumped for a Clemson/Alabama Part III. Will I watch it? yeah, sure... but if I miss a few plays here and there I'm not going to be fricked up about it.

Georgia-Oklahoma at the Rose Bowl is sort of interesting I guess. I could see either team winning big in that game where as with AL-Clemson, I have a bad feeling Alabama will win especially if Scarbrough gets going. Once he got hurt last year, Alabama fell apart and couldn't sustain drives.

Why are people using the current bowl record as if the committee (or anyone) knew the B1G would go undefeated thus far in bowl season?

At the time, Bama was the best choice.

tOSU doesn't get arse raped by Iowa, they're in
Hornibrook plays like he did tonight, against tOSU, they're in.

B1G was favored in every game but 1. They're still 7-1 ATS so still impressive

Not only do they get in, but get a short 4 hour drive to the Sugar Bowl while the other fan bases most likely have to catch a flight and will be a short drive to Atlanta for the final. They will have a home field advantage in both games (don’t think UGA wins) b/c their fans can make day trips out of both games rather than flights/hotels.

we have to make sure it’s Bama that’s not suppose to be in and Georgia or Clemson. If Bama wins it all I could see people switching up their argument saying Wisconsin should still have been in over someone.

Well Bama shouldn't be in. Shouldn't have gotten a second chance in 2011 but they did. Welcome to the real world.
