It was. I was not expecting that at all.

To be honest neither was I.Nebraska laid an egg last night.

16 team playoff problem solved!

I would go with top 8 over 16 imo

 

[osu1991]

I think it will eventually morph into an 8 team playoff

Hard to see how they dropped Georgia below Florida, when UGA won the Cocktail Party.

god i hope not. I dont want to be stuck playing one of them. Bring Oregon or Oklahoma!!!

 

[osu1991]

All the predictions are now NIU playing FSU in the Orange Bowl and Louisville and Florida in the Sugar. OU gets left out

Yep, but it's going to be close. Have to wait till tonight to know for sure.

 

[The Insider]

That really sucks. I mean good for NIU and all but man it sucks. I wanted Oregon or Oklahoma. Shut them up

I mean Nebraska showed the world it still plays Big12 defense last night

 

[Derwin0]

Hopefully Florida does better against Louisville than Alabama did against Utah

 

[Derwin0]

With the Fiesta Bowl having first pick (and already 1 Big XII team/Kansas St.), there's no way they'll pass on Oregon. So if NIU gets left out, then the Sugar would likely grab Oklahoma, but not Oregon.

I sure didn't see any defense in Atlanta last night. I mean geez 900 yards of offense, you could almost compete in the Big 12

Oh itll be fun playing against Charlie Strong

Is this the strongest the SEC has ever been? 6 top ten teams in the final polls..

#2 Alabama,
#4 Florida
#5 Georgia
#7 LSU
#9 Texas A&M
#10 South Carolina


3 from the SEC East and 3 from the SEC West. Vegas would put these teams up against any team in the country and they would be either favored or a coin flip.

While most other conferences have 1-2 teams that would be in a similar boat.

Big12 has Oklahoma and KState
Pac12 has Oregon and Stanford.
Big10 has Ohio St
ACC 0
Big East 0

 

[Ronnie-]

And don't discount the 8 win teams.


I think this is a pretty strong year for the sec even If I think our bcs champion rep isn't as strong as it has been in the past. Hard to top last year in that instance, from either team.
