Sort of puts the BCS into sham territory. Now, it seems to me, everyone and I mean everyone is putting major stock in that Arkansas is this awesome team that just happened to get blown out twice. Giving even more credibility to the so called 2 best teams in the land. Now, lets take a look at this badass Arkansas team...........whoa 2-9 1aa Missouri St.(lookout baby), mmmm 1-10 New Mexico, and the ever dominant 3-8 Troy Trojans(apparently every bit as good as the USC Trojans). I'd do Alabama's tough schedule but then i'd have to add that they beat the Big 10's 5th best team who showed they were a fraud as soon as they started playing real competition. But oh well, hopefully the BIG 10 beats ass in the bowl games and we can all laugh at ESPN and Gary Danielson and Verne Lundquist. If anyone would like to add more points to this, feel free. And just to make things clear, I do believe all 3 SEC teams to be good, I just don't think UM is that bad(16).
 
They are very pro SEC PAC BIG12(10) in the rankings. To no small extent though, the B1G has played poorly for years so it is common practice to rip on the conference. It would be awesome to see the B1G sweep their bowls to shut up critics. How many weeks did not a single B1G school crack the top 15 let alone top 10? With the SEC they just say how those schools are all very talented and therefore they beat each other up so much it is nearly impossible to go undefeated.

Hopefully the fact UM went an unexpected 10-2 vs such solid competition this year bodes well for next year.
