Frankly, lets see the warm weather candy asses BAMA or Georgia have to play two other conference champs up north outside in an unfriendly stadium when is cold, rainy and/or snowing to win a national title . They won’t ever agree to do it, because they are too chicken shit to put the myth of the SEC on the line by having to play real football in real football weather against real football teams. Just admit it, the SEC is full of overrated warm weather patsies for Bama and Georgia to beat up on.

The problem with the big10 is, almost all of them recruit for the inclement weather they face toward the end of the season. The exception is Urban at tOSU. He recruits speed.

That's why a team like Appalachian State can go toe to toe with the more sluggish big10 teams to start the season. Speed kills. Ask Michigan.

Who wants to play in the frigid north at the end of the year? Even the fans don't. That's why they move South in droves.

Like I mentioned, look at the national titles won by SEC teams over the last several years.
Sounds to me like those pussies who play in below sub-freezing weather can’t handle the heat of where most bowl games are played.
One question: are you intentionally ignorant, or just plain stupid?

He keeps using the word 'shit' on this thread. That's a good indicator for me. He apparently can't hold a mannered, civil conversation.

I agree. Supposedly to get into the playoffs a team must win their conference. Washington State has a better record than Georgia but nobody would say they should be in the playoffs. They didn’t win their conference.

I’m a huge SEC fan. So much so that I became a TA&M fan when they joined the conference. But I’m sick of Alabama.

This is why conference championship games make no sense when the NCAA has a playoff for the national champion

NCAA Div II football has a 24-team playoff system... and Div III has 32 teams in their playoff. Odd how the big schools cannot figure it out.

In my opinion, there should be at least an 8-team playoff... the 5 major conference champions, the top non-big-5 champion, and THEN the top-2 remaining schools. Under that rubric, this year would likely see Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State, Oklahoma, and Washington as the 5 champions... add in UCF as the non-5 champion... Notre Dame is clearly the top non-champion.... and finally throw Georgia, Michigan or Florida as the last one in, and the only minor debate left to have (so that Alabama can lose the SEC game and still get in, of course). Or, scrap the debate, and take two non-5 champions, and get #22 Boise St in the mix.

EVERY school now has a chance at the playoff, no matter how small, or what their conference. Every game has meaning, every conference championship has meaning, and every fan base can legitimately dream... and six or seven of the top 8 teams are likely in the playoff just about every year, as they would this year.

Whenever I read your silly posts about "conference champions," I am reminded of the 2015 season when Michigan State won the Big 10 championship and then proceeded to lose to Alabama in the national semifinals by a 38-0 score. That was a playoff team? LOL.

Or how about 2012, when Wisconsin won the Big 10 championship game despite finishing the season with an 8-6 record? Seriously, dude? A team like this belongs in the playoffs for a national title just because they won a conference championship game at the end of the season?

The difference is that hardly anyone outside those schools really cares who wins the Division II or Division III championship. It would get a lot more scrutiny if those were big-time championship games played in prime TV spots.

You think OU or OSU could beat Georgia? FYI, the SEC has 4 teams in the top ten for a reason. Look at all the SEC national champions over the last 15 years or so. What team or conference do you support? When did they last win a national championship? And wtf are YOU smoking?

Gotta agree entirely. Pretty clear we're watching the two best teams in college football playing in Atlanta right now.
