Fun Facts for ESPN to consider

Either way this all blows and we need more than 4 teams in the playoff. After all, ain't nothing like seeing a 3 loss Georgia team and a 3 loss LSU team get in! Spurrier would be on the cusp too so I'm sure he'd be down for 8 teams.

The SEC is the best conference but i do not agree at all with how blind, manipulated, and biased ESPN makes things for them. How ESPN owning the SEC network isn't a conflict of interest is beyond me.

Bottom line someone is getting worked over this year i just hope it ain't us if we are able to win out. Whoever gets left out i hope takes this whole system down IMO. You watch the ones bitching the most will actually be the 2-4 SEC teams with 2 loses regardless if there's already two teams in. Their excuse? We beat each other up so the others only had to wait for us to knock each other out.

Are you seriously suggesting that anyone thinks Missouri has a prayer of making the playoff?

I don't recall calling the Tigers a "bottom feeder," but few people would mourn if they sank into the sea.

Given the remainder of their schedule, they have the easiest road to a SEC CG birth.
If you take the hype out they have as much of a chance as other 2-loss SEC schools like LSU, Miss, and Georgia
While I personally don't think such 2-loss champions should be taken over any 1-loss champions... we all know it's going to happen. Because SEC.

That said, I'll reiterate the point I made last week about SEC strength -- no team outside the 6 power schools has ever won their CCG.

If Missouri wins out, including a win in the SEC CCG over Miss St, Bama, or Auburn, they will be in. No doubt. And there will most likely be a team from the SEC west in also. Either the loser of the SEC CCG or the team that finished 2nd in the west. Don't get me wrong, I think it's absolutely terrible, but I bet that's what happens if Mizzou wins out.

Given that the likelihood of Mizzou winning out is roughly equivalent to the likelihood of my getting a BJ from my heartthrob (see below), this discussion is moot.

They have the most favorable schedule of any SEC team left in the picture: bye, TAMU, Tenn, Ark
I'm not holding my breathe, but equating their chances to absurd declarations is ridiculous.

Missouri lost to Indiana. They could just as easily lose every remaining game. The SEC East is nearly as irrelevant to the playoff as the AAC.

And we lost to VTech... again, not holding my breath. They could lose their next 3 games and nobody would be surprised.
Still... they're currently the only team in the East that controls their own destiny and they happen to have the easiest road left. From there it's a longshot to beat whoever comes out of the West, but nobody there is as dominant as the press wants us to believe either. They're all beatable teams.

Is it likely? No. Probably 10-20% range.
Still well within reality, however... unlike the "getting a blowjob from Angelina Jolie" quip.
