SEC did better than I thought they would. UGA and A&M winning were nice wins for the conference.

Arkansas winning would have been something. Unfortunate for the sec to have three ranked teams not in there.

 

[TechRaiderRider]

Arkansas winning would have been something.

hawgs did a great job
forcing 15 TOs in the 1st,
and more agressive play in the 2nd
quickly gettin into the bonus -
unfortunately, they missed several FTs
and a shitload of 3s,
otherwise, they woulda stole one
in lubbock -

Yeah, that really made it swing in favor of the Big 12. A&M, South Carolina and Arkansas should have been replaced with those 3 teams. Would have made it more even.

Damn I need to stick to picking football! The Big 12 has really dominated this thing but glad to see its going to continue.

Damn! That old Cyclone is good. If he'd have just made one homer pick, he'd have batted 1.000!

Thank the Lawd for Wishbone!

What criteria is used in deciding which four SEC teams get left out each year?

 

[SU Nittany Tide]

I have no idea. I think it's a cycle but it'll always include the historically bigger teams.

 

[78Cyclones]

I like the challenge! Gives Iowa State a chance to see another Major Team that they would normally not play. My wife and I went to the game @ Vanderbilt a few years ago, which was a ton of fun (except for the loss). Looking forward to next year!

I think it's 15-15 over the last 3 years so been pretty even recently

I think the Big 12 has won it every year except last where they tied? Could be wrong but I know the Big 12 has won way more over the years.
