After 7 in a row by the SEC, ideas on making the national championship game competitive...

1. Let the SEC Championship Game loser play instead of the winner. No, that wouldn't have worked this year, either. Georgia would have rolled Notre Dame. The Dawgs never trailed Alabama by more than 4, and Notre Dame is down by 28 at the half.

2. Automatic disqualifier for any Big Ten team, or any team that played more than 2 Big Ten teams, for weakness of schedule.

3. Let the All-Pac-12 team or the All-Big 12 team play the SEC in lieu of their individual teams. The All-Big Ten team would get rolled, and let's not even discuss the ACC or independents.

4. Allow the SEC's opponent to bring back a few alumni from the pros to play in the game.

Just some ideas. I know all you SEC haters out there are in a pit of despair.

I fucking hate Notre Dame with a passion. This kind of abuse could only happen in the Catholic church.

That works with the 4th best SEC team, Florida. It wouldn't have worked with Alabama, Georgia, or Texas A&M.
