be fighting for the last spot in the play off with a 2nd SEC team. I mean, I think it was around October, there was talk of a 3rd SEC team being added to the playoffs.

Unless you are Texas and OU, your chances, without a conference championship game, to make the playoffs are slim to none. Florida freaking State barely made it into the playoffs... the ONLY reason they did was because FSU was undefeated and the defending national championship.

You need a conference championship game to make 1 last statement. It was exactly what got Ohio State in, and nudged FSU past the BIGXII.

The BIGXII directors and AD's, I don't think, have made 1 good decision since wanting to stay together. That conference is taking the role of the Big East and running with it. Stupid is what Stupid does and Stupid is the BIGXII.
