SOLID VERBALLIN'

The part where we're thinking out loud about what the SEC would want is probably the most interesting part, since what the hell would the SEC want out of a playoff? Besides a Regions Bank sponsorship tie-in and as many SEC teams in the tourney as possible?

SEC's pride of the feud was best described by Caesar after he crossed the Rhine

They esteem it their greatest praise as a [conference], that the lands about their territories lie unoccupied to a very great extent, inasmuch as [they think] that by this circumstance is indicated, that a great number of [conferences] can not withstand their power; and thus on one side of the [SEC] the lands are said to lie desolate for about six hundred miles.

A playoff just allows the SEC the chance to desolate more territory in a year.

But what do you expect? When you raise up a young boy's hopes and then just crush 'em. Like so many paper beer cups.

So if the SEC goes into B1G country in December and decimates them...

What next? Alternate sack races? Games in the Arctic Circle with laser guns, ice skates, and part of the Weather Dominator?

The SEC doesn't want all the land ...

… just the land next to its land. And its women.

Especially its women.

And Milton McGregor’s hair.

Let me see you "Lutzie."

Presumably

Alabama would want a double-elimination format.

this is funny

but I believe Bama has many more undefeated seasons than any of their SEC counterparts.

Is this loud enough, Alabama,

or shall I turn it up for you?

You might want to crank it up to eleven

In the name of the Woody, the Bo, and the Mustache Ride. Amen.

Auburn and Alabama each have 12.

Next is Tennessee with 7 (Texas A&M has 9 but I won’t count them until they’ve played at least one conference game).

All well behind Yale (30), Princeton (29), Michigan (25), and Notre Dame (22). USC (16), Harvard (14), Oklahoma (13), and Penn State (14) have slightly more. Washington and ND State have 12 as well.

I forgot the punchline but I think in the end, Todd Graham is a douchebag.
