Where would TCU be if they hadn't blown that 21-point lead at Baylor?

$EC-gate.....No way should they have these teams this high and TCU etc as low as they are. Alabama lost to Ole Miss who was dominated by LSU, not to mention barely survived Arkansas. Ole Miss only drops to #9... so if they win out they can easily move back into the top 5. They sure didn't allow that for Baylor. The $EC bias is rampant.

I can't wait for everyone on Twitter to over-react to the first playoff poll on Tuesday.

Was just watching the replay of the Auburn-S Carolina game. What a doozie.

During the broadcast, commentator Brent Musburger says this "people want to talk about an SEC bias. Well, deal with it."

smh

He's broadcasting a game where a team that got strummed by aggy at home is giving the nation's #5 team all they can handle - at Auburn.

Most would look at that as a chink in the proverbial Auburn armor. Noooooo, Musberger looks at that as a typical SEC dogfight. lol

BTW, neither of these teams has a defense worth a flip.

The more these ESPN media hacks; Musberger, Fowler, Herbstreit, etc. deny that there's a "SEC bias" makes me think there's more to our assertions than we even know.  Why even acknowledge it unless you have a guilty conscience or you're an ESPN corporate "yes man"?  Who have any of these SEC stalwarts beaten OOC?

Auburn is the only one I can think of.  They lose easily if K-State had a kicker and Lockett doesn't drop the ball.
