Time to get the "eye test" to the optomotrist!

**mikeiastat** · 11-10-2012, 06:42 PM

Can we now round up all the "eye test" morons and shoot them. Thank you A$M for making Alabama finally play more the 1 or 2 decent teams. Eating your fill of cupcakes finally comes back and bites them in the ***. A little harder to game plan when you don't have all season to plan for LSU. Its a while before everyone sees the SEC for the cupcake eatin punks they are. But at least we shouldn't have to see an Alabama in another NC game they don't deserve.

I agree with you but I still think Bama finds some way (gets some help) to get into the NC

**Wesley** · 11-10-2012, 06:50 PM

I think it will be an uphill climb at this point. ND, Oregon or KSU or even Georgia.

**simply1** · 11-10-2012, 06:52 PM

I can't believe hat I'm rooting for KSU and ND, but I am along with Oregon to skunk the SEC.

**nj829** · 11-10-2012, 06:53 PM

georgia and bama should meet in the SEC title game, and the strength of schedule that adds to the computer component could push the winner to #2 with ND not playing a tough schedule, and no championship game for KSU. Texas needs to be highly ranked when they meet to offset the SEC game.

I would love for Oregon to lose one this year still.

Then K-State could smoke ND in the title game and Oregon could play Bama and might very well beat the tar out of them

Going into today ND had a higher ranked SOS than KState, Oregon, and Alabama.

LOL at smack talking the SEC, they've owned just about every conference in BCS games and NC games. The Big 12 hasn't exactly done well against them in the Cotton Bowl either.

I do not get it either, who have they played besides OU? They played 3 Big 10 teams, the equivalent of MAC schools.

Remember when SEC fans where smack talking A&M and how they would get abused in the SEC? Well A&M is 2 plays from being unbeaten and is having much more success this year than they ever had in the Big 12.

But they haven't played any cupcake teams and thats the big difference. Alabama plays 4 teams worse than the worst team Notre Dame has played.

Alabama's next 2 games are against a 1-9 West Carolina team and a 2 win Auburn team. Their SOS is going to fall off a cliff before the SEC title game.

Yeah, but some of those teams were ranked early in the year before everybody knew they were jokes. That's what some of those strength of schedule ranking take into account.

Mich state, joke,
Purdue, joke
Mich, joke

And all play in a joke of a conference to get wins later.

I still can't figure out how OU let them get a win in Norman. That's a good win. Notre Dame's schedule is not difficult based on where teams will finish the year. Unfortunately, the big twelve dominated out of conference play and are adding extra losses to the schedule because they are playing a 9 game schedule and everyone in the conference.

Their lows aren't quite as low to this point as what others have had. But their SOS is helped somewhat by having 2 of their weakest games in november, so those havent hit the computers yet. 112 and 113 will be added to their SOS as of next sunday. Those will drag it down a bit, and then it will go back up when USC is added.

Yup. This is where that whole extra money from those games starts to become questionable, if you don't factor in potential losses. Especially when we have conference leaders publicly saying they don't want a title game because it could hurt chances at a title... but the 9 game schedule can do that too.

**twojman** · 11-10-2012, 11:34 PM

I really have to say SEC is weak sauce. They added two teams to get to 14 and decide an 8 game conference schedule is the way to go. They really did not beat anyone out of conference. They did get some losses from UL-M, Rutgers & Northwestern, not to mention all the close calls. Michigan and Washington could be the best out of conference wins for the SEC.
