The SEC has played in six games so far this postseason and the conference is currently batting .500. The SEC has won three and lost three games. The conference came out of the gate slow as Texas A&M and Kentucky lost the first two matchups to put the SEC in an 0-2 hole.
Then the marquee games hit and the wins started rolling in. Missouri took down Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl to give them an 11-win season. Then Lane Kiffin secured Ole Miss’ first 11-win season in school history with a beatdown of Penn State. In a non-marquee game, Maryland destroyed Auburn to drop the conference to a 2-3 record, but then the Dawgs showed up.
Georgia was paired up against the Florida State Seminoles in a game of two teams that thought they were snubbed out of the playoffs. Apparently, “All games mattered” to Georgia as they showed up in the Orange Bowl with a 63-3 drubbing of the Seminoles. Maybe now the narratives can be put to rest.
