Road to the SEC Championship


Texas Jeff

Recommended Posts

Alright, after a few weeks in our new league, I know that:

"In the SEC, teams just lose more"

It's way too early to talk about this, but here's where things stand in the SEC after a chaos weekend:

Texas, Texas A&M, and LSU are all still undefeated in conference.  They each control their destiny.  Win and you're in.

Texas A&M has probably the easiest path.  They play Texas and LSU at home.  They have no remaining games agains the 1-loss bunch.   They have games against Miss St, S Carolina and Auburn who are collectively 1-7 in the SEC.  Should the Aggies beat LSU, there is a real chance that Texas and Texas A&M would play twice back to back.

LSU has to travel to Texas A&M and all of the rest of their games are agains the 1-loss bunch.  They have to face Alabama, Arkansas, and the Vanderbilt juggernaut.

If you don't know the Texas schedule then something is wrong with you.  Georgia is the featured attraction, but old foes loom large in OU, Arkansas, and the Aggies.  And of course, they must face the Vanderbilt juggernaut on the road.  Other than the Kentucky and Aggie games, Texas only faces teams in the current 1-loss bunch.

The road ahead features twists and turns and maybe some potholes, but we are all out of creampuffs.

Embarrassing aggy twice in a row would be kinda fun.  I think they lose before our game though.  

Exactly.

The prospect of playing agricultural at a neutral site in any championship/playoff scenario should make any Longhorn giggle.

Any of the other one loss teams will be higher ranked. Do not see a rematch w Aggie in the cards, unless they manage to beat us, and still think we get dropped to UGA TN and Bama’s benefit.

One representative will have 0 or 1 loss (us)

the other will have 2.

(Bama, Tenn, UGA, A&M)

I think that’s your contenders.

LSU will manage to lose 3 of ole miss, arky, bama, vandy, ou (while beating A&M).

Ole Miss will lose 2 of LSU, ou, arky, georgia

Mizzou will lose 2 of bama, ou, arky

Still way too early, but Texas, LSU and Texas A&M still control their own destiny.  Everyone else needs help.

Oklahoma, Florida and Ole Miss each picked up a 2nd SEC loss and are probably out of contention, without a lot of losses and some fortunate tiebreakers.

This week, LSU (at Arkansas) and Texas (vs Georgia) play 1-loss teams and try to remain perfect in league play.  Surely A&M can take down Miss St on the road?

How much do you like K-Ford's "most deserving" CFB Playoff Bracket?
