Nobody is a bigger Brandon Walker fan than I am.
I consider Mostly Sports and Unnecessary Roughness appointmenttelevisionstreaming.
So because of that, I’m up to my eyeballs in Brandon Walker takes.
I hear them every day of my life.
A lot of them I agree with.
Some of them I don’t.
Typically when I disagree with him, I do what any rational human being would do.
I create a new burner account and threaten his family in the DM’s.
But this time he’s gone too far.
I would like to put my name to this.
That’s what it is.
Brandon Walker’s SEC bias is out of control.
I believe they are this year as well.
Credit to me for admitting that.
In they end, they’re going to give the SECat minimum4 spots in the college football playoffs.
That’s 4x more than both the ACC and Big 12 will get in.
They’re essentially saying that the SEC is 4x the better conference.
But apparently that is not NEARLY good enough for Brandon and the rest of the SEC.
SEC fans won’t rest until the ACC and Big 12 are wiped off the face of the earth.
Luckily for us, SEC teams did in fact play out of conference games this season.
So we have some tangible evidence to point to.
Let’s see how SEC teams have faired out of conference this year.
Maybe they’re right.
Maybe the SEC has just been steamrolling everybody in their path.
Jalen Milroe ran all over LSU last weekend?
A team who lost by 7 on neutral field to USC, who is currently 16th in the B1G?
I know doing the whole transitive property thing is bullshit.
I don’t where this confidence even comes from.
It can’t be from this season.
Like Notre Dame didn’t straight up beat them in Week 1.
Yes the SEC is the best conference.
They’re going to get at least 4 teams in.
Maybe 5 if Indiana gets pounded by Ohio State.
But all these impressive wins by SEC teams have come against themselves.
Georgia’s #1 strength of schedule is almost entirely based on SEC games.
But we don’t.
So that’s what the playoffs are for.
TheNationalChampion should be forced to go through teams from outside of their own conference.
The CFB Playoff format right now gives us the perfect representation of the best teams in college football.
The best conferences (SEC & B1G) are going to get the most teams in by far.
We’ll get a 3 or 4 teams in there from elsewhere.
The automatic byes to conference winners are perfectly fine.
It’s all the same.
They had their chance and they blew it.
We’ve seen those games already.
Now a different team gets a shot.
The SEC gets SO MUCH respect from college football year in and year out.
How is that not enough for them?
That would be a tragedy for college football.
The SEC is better than everyone else this year.
But not that much better.
Thank god we have rules in place that will give us a chance to see that happen.
And despite what SEC fans seem to think, that possibility is VERY MUCH on the table.
