However, even if we beat Arkansas and go to the SEC championship and win, that loss to Memphis would still keep us out of the playoff.

It was an embarrassing loss for sure, but only because of the way Memphis finished the season. Looking back on it, I'd have been okay with losing to them if they were 11-1 or 10-2, that 3rd loss really tarnished our loss to them.

With that in mind, Memphis beat us in Eli Manning's senior year too, which kind of left a stain on our last 10-win season.
