Playoff SEC Style

I don't like a seemingly unfair resolution, but if a team had to get screwed, I'm not terribly upset that it was Auburn.

I agree. It bothers me even less when I remember that they played the Citadel.

After searching through the NCAA's frustrating websites, it appears to me as if they are ignoring the issue of the AP poll and just praying that it never disagrees with the BCS again. The best I could find suggests that 1) the AP awards a recognized title in football from 1936-present, and 2) the NCAA likes the AP poll enough to post it on its website, suggesting that there could, indeed be another "officially" split championship. They only list "BCS" after Florida in 2006, though, after listing every laundramat in Tuscaloosa for every other year.

I'll bet you that when the situation occurs again, however, that any team finishing #1 in the AP after the bowls will be considered as having won a share of the title even if they were left out of the BCS title game by most of the football world, just as it was with USC/LSU.

I also couldn't find anything to support that claim I made. That's why I used "fairly sure" instead of "certain". I do remember the ESPN guys saying something to the effect of the NCAA acknowledging just the BCS from here on out. I think that was just after the USC/LSU bowl season.

So what options does the SEC have to expand it's market share?
