    Default Bowl Matchups by Ranking

    Everybody loves to hate on the SEC, which finished 5-4 in the bowl games.

    What most fail to see is in order to get competitive games these bowl committees always put a higher ranked team against the SEC team. I guess they do this to keep the games competitive and prevent blow outs. We see this year after year.....
    ....and this year is no different.

    #21 Tenn vs #17 Iowa
    #22 Clemson vs unranked KY
    #9 Missouri vs #7 OSU
    #11 Ole Miss vs #10 Penn State
    #5 FSU vs #6 Georgia
    #22 Texas A&M vs #20 Ok State
    Md vs Auburn....both unranked
    * #13 LSU vs Wisconsin

    * Only game where the SEC team was raked higher.

    Where’s Sakkerliner’s game? Have they played yet or is it after the NC so everyone will watch?
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    Dave Portnoy, owner of Barstool Sports, bet 1 million dollars on Michigan to beat Alabama.

    I’m just glad they put those 1 loss teams in the playoff. Everyone knew they would be the eventual NCG contenders.

    Hopefully the CW picks up the national championship game. I’m sure espn will find something else to air next Monday.

    How does a ranking in November apply to teams with up to 50% different roster in December/ January?

    Amen, Bowl games should be Labor day weekend.

    Then lets get to the season. Playoffs after the season.
