Won't be as easy to minimize tough games for the top tier teams or for the bottom tier of the conference to pad the wins with gimmes from South Eastern Nowhere State.

I just want all of the major conferences to be consistent with their conference scheduling. I'm not holding my breath on the SEC though.

That's a positive if it happens, but it doesn't make them more willing to play quality teams outside the SEC, or outside their own state even. The teams at the top, the 1 or 2 loss SEC teams will still be hammering the committee about how they they have to play NINE games in the hardest conference ever created. Hell, even their 3 loss teams will be bitching about how they're not in the top 4 over some other conference's team that doesn't play real football.....Paaaawwwl.

Yeah, what competition? Only 63 players drafted, and 9 each from LSU and Bama.

I didn't mean it as a slight against the SEC. Jesus knows they're the best conference. Literally, Jesus recruited half of them. It'd just be nice if they played other BCS conference teams during the season more often, instead of only in the Bowls.

The SEC should just always play itself. Whoever wins gets the NC.

The rest of the conferences can fight over whatever 2nd and 3rd tier bowls the 3rd-7th place SEC teams aren't in.

The Buffs don't have to worry about playing other BCS teams in bowl games.

SEC is legit except for an overrated LSU program.
