Quote:Miss St went from No 1 to No 4 after their loss (so did Ole Miss)....it wouldnt shock me if they kept Bama at 4.

 

Ole Miss was never #1  or #4. What are you talking about?

 

Quote:How in the world could you rank a 2 loss Bama team over a 2 loss Missouri team?  That makes no sense.  It's not happening.

 

Strength of schedule, of course - and the fact that Alabama's first loss was at Ole Miss, not home against Indiana.

 

Quote:You'd have to think anyone who is in the top 4 that loses this weekend is all but eliminated.


I guess we'll find out though.

 

Not if Ohio State loses. How can you put 2-loss Ohio State over 2-loss Oregon or Alabama?

 

Quote:If the SEC is the best in the country then how can a team wins the division two years in a row be average?  If the best of the league is average then the conference is average. This Missouri team finished in the top 10 ranking last year, beat Okla State in the Cotton Bowl, and has beaten 8 bowl eligible teams so far this year.

 

The SEC will be shut out of the playoffs if Mizzou wins.

 

By playing in a crappy division. That is like saying if the 5-7 Saints win the NFC South, they must be better than the 8-4 Lions. The SEC East is bad this year.

 

This Missouri team is not the same one that played in the Cotton Bowl. Every year it is a new team. "Bowl eligible" does not mean anything because it only requires winning half of your games.

 

If the SEC is shut out of the playoffs, a lot more people are going to wish it was eight teams instead of only four.Somebody who deserves it will not get in.
