Kentucky is pretty much 6 feet under.
I was looking through the tie breaker rules for the sec championship game after lsu lost to AM this weekend. I did some deep digging and here is what I found out. Georgia loses direct tie to lsu, as does Tennessee. In a 3-way tie with current standings Georgia, Texas and Tennessee lose to lsu due to conference opponent record. The only way for lsu to tie Texas if they win out would be in a 3 way with am which lsu would win the tie breaker due to the conference opponent record tie breaker since lsu doesn’t get to play auburn, Mississippi state and Kentucky. So it seems like the only 3 teams that control their own destiny are lsu, Texas and Texas am. If lsu wins out they are in, if am wins out they are in and if Texas wins out they are in. But Georgia and Tennessee would need lsu to lose to have a chance to get in. What are yalls thoughts on the tie breaker rules and do yall think a AM lsu rematch in the championship game will happen. Would it be fun. How do yall think the season will play out?
Who do you think are the best teams in the SEC? I am not referring to records or standings; who can beat who?
1.) Georgia - they proved what they can do against an excellent Texas. A lot of folks are questioning the legitimacy of the Texas QBs. It was simple to me: the QBs must be protected. Georgia's defensive line pounded the Texas o-line.
2.) Texas A&M - This will be a controversial pick for many of you, but A&M beat my Tigers in the second half the way Georgia beat Texas. Texas barely beat a really good Vanderbilt. Texas must play the 12th man at the end of the year. There is a reason why the home team in the LSU/A&M rivalry has won 8 years in a row.
3.) Texas is still a great team—two of the best QB’s in the country.
4.) Tennessee - They have flashes of pure excellence, with wins against Bama and OU, but they lost to Arkansas. I still think they are better positioned than LSU.
Geaux Tigers!
7.) Ole Miss - Dart is an excellent QB. Kiffin is tremendous with an offense. Ole Miss is a team well-positioned to pull off an upset on the 9th.
8.) Vanderbilt - You have to love the heart of Vandi. You have to respect Pavia. They are the dark horse of the SEC. Any given Saturday!
9.) South Carolina - They play hard and very competitively.
10.) Oklahoma - They should have come into the SEC and stomped ass. That’s what all their fans said was going to happen. It’s complete silence now. They are tenth because they may be better than Mizzou and Kentucky. That’s a big maybe. They did score against Ole Miss.
What are your top ten?
Who will win?
For example, if Texas A&M goes undefeated until playing Texas, and loses to them, and you have Georgia, Texas, and Texas A&M, all at one loss… Will the conference championship game be Georgia vs. Texas, because Georgia beat Texas and Texas beat Texas A&M? Would it matter that Texas A&M and Georgia don’t play each other?
You could never have gotten me to believe this in August
As a Wildcat fan I am I also felt that loss to the gators but I also want to hear your guys thoughts on this game. Congrats to the gators but we still never back down like the true wildcats we are! Go Big Blue!
I’ve been doing a College Football show on YouTube since April. I’ve been having fun as it’s been a great outlet to talk about College Football on a deeper level than casual conversation.
For background, I wrote college football articles for various websites until I decided to start my own thing. I’m getting to the point where it would be beneficial to bring outside people on, since I enjoy hearing different perspectives and talking to people about college football regardless of your background, what team you support, or any of those kind of variables.
Although being a college football “generalist” is acceptable, there is a preference for guests who can discuss a particular SEC program in depth & I would expect that any topics we discuss would be researched significantly before recording. If this opportunity interests you, comment/Dm me and I’m happy to send you a link to the show & answer any questions you have!
“Our intent was to eat.” I love this!
I bet if Auburn played Missouri 9 more times they'd win.
Swaggerbilt continues to roll!
We’ve had a bunch of coaching changes in the last decade. With those coaching changes have come changes in coaching philosophy.
SEC past has always been tough, tough upfront, tough behind. Line em up and knock em down. Knock down drag out fights. Field position use to be a thing, and they’d play a whole damn quarter just to get it.
Seems these new coaches wanna run these air raids, top’s, hurry ups, go for it on fourth and your own ass crack.
As conferences consolidate amid the NIL era, Will the SEC remain the cherry conference? Or will they succumb to shitty coaching philosophy.
Run the damn ball. Where did the I-form go? Your thoughts? Also the dancing. Stop the damn dancing.
Oklahoma sooners disappointed for the last time. I'm done!
It has pedal-steel guitar and sounds like if The Heartbreakers recorded in Nashville.
What's your "must watch" SEC game this week...and why?
Been trying to find it anyone know?
Crazy week for the SEC.
