thats the bad part of it for any1 in the pac 12 it is so competitive that a couple of red zone turnovers and you will probably lose. for the ducks part though i think they really proved what a great team they are to fight back so hard against all odds and nearly had a chance to win it even after all the bad mistakes. i still believe osu is the 2nd best team in the country but things will have to shake up a bit now for either of the 2 best teams to get a shot. fsu still continues to have the easiest schedule in the country and their arent really any good teams in the sec this year though auburn is showing signs of life, we will just have to wait and see

I don't know how anyone could watch the Buckeyes' performance today and think they are the #2 team in the country. IMO, in a decent conference, the Buckeyes are a multi-loss team.

Alabama/Auburn is a huge game now. I sure hope a Bama loss in this game or the SEC championship game would keep them out of the NC game, but we all know how crooked SEC bias can throw a wrench into things. Voters need to apply a bias in the opposite direction to counteract this fraud.

Bias! Bias! Bias!
outsiders hate because well people always hate on the best there is a reason the SEC gets into the Championship game even with a loss. It is because the conference is by far the best in the country and if you get through with no or even one loss in that conference you are most likely the best team in the country.
The proof?
we win the damn game EVERY year so if they didn't deserve to be there you would think they would lose occasionally right?
7 in a row and counting!
So the point being post as much as you want and the SEC will do its talking on the field with Championships.

I completely agree that the SEC is the best conference in the country --- and it isn't close. Having said that, I think that FSU is the best team in the country. And please don't give me any lip about their schedule. I know that it's weak, but their average margin of victory is 41 and they've called off the dogs at halftime in about half of their games. Their defense is very fast and well disciplined, and their offense is ridiculous.

like i said before there are never more than 2 decent teams a year in the sec and when they have to start playing playoff games against the big ten and pac 12 the fraud will come to an end

You cannot be serious!! at least 5 teams in the SEC this year would be undefeated in the Big Ten, Pac-12, Big 12, And probably the ACC for god sake at least act like you know a little bit about college football.

The majority of these teams loses come against each other with a few minor misteps by the last 2 teams but those misteps are far less likely to happen in a lesser conference where there are only a couple of challenging games a year.
Plus this list doesn't even include Florida or Georgia which are perennially among the national elite but having down years.
while I am here we might as well throw out some numbers
since the the BCS championship game began being playing after the 1998 season one conference has a winning record in the game and that is the SEC.
However lets look further at that not only does the SEC have a winning record but the only game they loss was the 2012 game in which LSU and Alabama both played so a loss in that game was inevitable. The SEC's record in the Championship game? 9-1 with 5 different teams winning titles.
The records for the other conferences
ACC: 2-4
Big 12: 2-5
Big 10:1-2
Pac 12:1-2
This not a coincidence the SEC is simply far superior to any other conference.
I would go further and say that schools such as FSU, Clemson, and Miami can actually be competitive simply because they get their players from the same basic player pool that the SEC does. High School football in the southeast is like religion and it flows over to the college game.

Much easier to win it when the preseason polls dictate that you get a shot to play in it every year. All you had to do was look at the preseaon poll this year to see how the system is set up to ensure an SEC rep in the title game. 5 of the top 10 this year were from the SEC including WAY overrated Georgia and Florida with an overerated LSU at 13. So when an mediocre SEC team beats an overrated SEC team the mediocre team instantly jumps to being overrated and the cycle repeats until the SEC champ is guaranteed their title shot.
Missori has had the easiest schedule imaginable and lost the only real team they faced all season. There is zero chance they would be undefeated in those other conferences.
LSU would have multiple loses in the other conferences. SC has also lost to every team worth a damn on their schedule including UT! They'd never make it either. A&M likely loses too, at least in the PAC10 and ACC.
Honestly I think outside of Alabama the SEC is very down this season. I do think Alabama is VERY good. My great hope however is for Auburn to beat them and then we'll see just how corrupt the system is as they try to get the SEC champ in the title game with 1 loss over 3 undefeated teams. Likely won't happen though because Alabama's defense will probably crush Auburn and they'll get a deserved spot in the title game.

Well its all conjecture as there is no way to prove anything that is discussed in this thread so we will have to agree to disagree. However, one thing that isn't opinion is the fact that no matter the reason, the SEC team that goes to the championship game wins EVERY time and the games are rarely even competitive. So as the youngsters today like to say:
SCOREBOARD!!

One other thing I forgot to mention is that a 1 loss SEC team would only have to jump 1 undefeated because baylor will not end up undefeated and well lets face it Ohio State being undefeated means nothing as the Big Ten is by far the weakest conference of the ones we are discussing here.

f this year im a clemson fan and we had everything locked if it wasnt for FSU and the rapist for a QB. Unbelievable. I thought this was gonna be like 1981 relived ( i was born in 1987 lol)
that being said, theres still a long shot because of the other big teams been losing.. if either alabama or fsu can lose a game then clemson can beat south carolina and win the ACC title game they should have a good shot

Such irresponsible vitriol from the sore loser. Considering the degree to which Clemson was manhandled in this game, FSU would still have won that game with me at QB --- so please don't attribute the loss to Winston. Furthermore, how about being a responsible adult and letting the courts decide whether Winston did anything wrong or not? If he sexually assaulted that girl then he deserves whatever punishment that he might get. Until that has been proven, though, he's innocent. That's the way the justice system works in this country. So please take off your bias cap and behave like an adult.
Thanks.

??? already said it was a down year for florida, next year when Muschamp is gone things will turn around.
So a team on my list is losing when the game involves 2 teams on my list? Not sure what you are saying.
The losses to each other only proves depth.

Guess Oregon losing to Arizona proves the depth of the PAC-10 too right? Nah, I'm sure you'll say that it just shows how overrated Oregon was to begin with. Always that way with the SEC apologists. SEC loser beats SEC winner and it shows depth. Happens anywhere else it's because a team is overrated.

SEC loser? LSU would crush both Oregon and Arizona so again not sure your point. A&M would probably beat them both as well.
but let me clarify a little something I didn't actually mean that my entire list would go undefeated in all of those conferences even though that is the way I portrayed it. What I meant was that some of those teams go undefeated in all other conferences and all of those teams go undefeated in some of the conferences but point remains that the SEC is far superior to all other conferences and no amount of denial or bias crying is going to change the fact they are in the middle of a run that will never be matched 7 IN A ROW!!

If the Buckeyes can beat the Spartans in the Big Ten Championship Game (which I think is a 50-50 proposition), then we will likely get the OSU-FSU matchup I've been hoping for.
So how much are you willing to wager?
