Every conference can be hypocritical. I'm laughing my ass off listening to Big 10 Commish Haney. He was one of the loudest proponents during the BCS-era closing, to make sure that a Conf Championship HAS to count....of course cause he wanted to deny more than one spot to the SEC. Now all the sudden, the mofugger is all about limiting that requirement in lieu of other teams because it's all Big 10 teams! I hate that chit.
I totally agree, and i'll go further... IMO, if Florida had beat 'Bama they should be in before the Gumps.
