Interesting article examining SEC bias / amount of coverage on ESPN Gameday

The SEC is good. But in my opinion they are not as good as the rankings of their teams would indicated for the last several years.

Argument: But, but, but...a sting of national championships!
Rebuttal: The inflated rankings permitted SEC teams with the same record to play in those championships.

Argument: But, but, but...look how high they are ranked in the polls!
Rebuttal: My point exactly.

MY Argument: The rankings seldom hold water when tested in out-of-conference play.

A great example this year is the case of Michigan State. They lost a game and are done for all practical purposes. That loss was on the road at Oregon, halfway across the country. SEC teams don't play games like that as a general rule. Credit to Auburn for going to KSU this year.

Actually, I agree with bottoming MSU. The Big 10 sucks.
