Baylor has lost two games this year in which they scored 50 or more points.
It wasn't the turnovers this week--it was the defense, which is somehow even worse than last year.

I hate the SEC. They are completely overrated.
I'm still guessing it will be an Alabama v. LSU rematch in title game. Somehow the BCS will make it happen--it's what we all want, right?!?!

On a related note, I keep hearing that the Big 12 doesn't want to add teams at least partially because they think a Big 12 championship game hurts their chances in the BCS. I disagree. I think SEC teams have the big advantage because they don't have to play all the other SEC teams every year, like the Big 12 does. Sure, the SEC has a championship game, but the winner of that game still didn't have to play all the difficult teams in the SEC.
Tell me how Georgia is ranked #5? They've played two teams currently in the top 25 - winning one and losing one. What a brutal SEC schedule! Even if they lose in the championship game, they still only end up with 2 loses and will have only played three good teams. Big 12 teams will have played at least 4-5 teams currently in the top 25. How does that benefit the Big 12? I think this is a big part of the reason there are six SEC teams in the top 10 (BCS) and only two Big 12 teams in the top 12. The Big 12 teams all have to play each other (and beat each other).
What do you guys think? Does this make any sense? I think the Big 12 would have a better chance at BCS bowl games if they had two divisions and a conference title game. This would actually make their schedules easier.

Well, the thinking behind the round robin is because the Big 12 Championship Game cost a team a shot at the national championship in the early 2000's. I'm too lazy to look, but I think it was K State. They don't want that to happen again.
If I start giving my thoughts on the SEC I might be here all day. The SEC is on par with the Big 10 this year. I mean, outside of Alabama and Florida and A&M, they are BAD. Don't give me LSU, they struggled to beat LMU and Towson. Go look at the non con schedule of Georgia. Embarrassing.
I can't even listen to national talk radio anymore because of the knob slobbing of the SEC.

I can't even listen to national talk radio anymore because of the knob slobbing of the SEC. I honestly believe most so-called college football experts still believe Alabama and LSU should go to the title game this year. I hate to say it, but I loved A&M beating Alabama on Saturday. I knew they couldn't handle a good offensive team. I wish Oklahoma State had gotten a shot at them last year. Of course Big 12 teams have to have some defense to go with offense (see West Virginia), but SEC offenses are just WEAK.

Just to be clear: I hate A&M.

If the context is what it appears to be, this is exactly what I'm talking about. It's mind numbing.

Maybe we can just make the SEC title game the national championship? That makes it easier, right?

Reads like an Onion article. They pick a Baylor game to focus on Americans being more interested in sports than god??? Completely crazy. I guess they picked this game because they are from Kansas and we are playing Kansas State. Apparently they are also going to be in Austin for the F1 race, so I guess we were in the area.
