In 2006, a lot of Big Ten folks and others wanted a rematch of Ohio State - Michigan in the title game as they had a monster of a game to end the season. However, smarter heads prevailed and Florida got the shot and destroyed the Buckeyes and USC beat Michigan. SEC fans should feel the same way about this year. You can't claim conference dominance if you don't play the best teams from other conferences. Especially this year as the SEC really wasn't that amazing.

In full agreement. I would love an 8 team playoff or even 4 but won't hold my breath. I would settle for not having two teams that have already played from the same conference playing again for the title too. I really hope OK St wins and Georgia beats LSU just to create a little more controversy.
