So the PAC 12 has the number 1 and 2 ranked teams but then their 3rd best is 27 and they only have 5 in the Top 55. Meanwhile nobody is even close to the SEC in the Top 30 with 8 teams, but none in the Top 10. And Auburn is number 31. So the SEC has 9 of theTop 31 teams. The next best is 4 from the ACC.

So because the SEC is already beating each other up and Oregon State is 12-0 against a weak PAC 11, they make the PAC 11 a higher rated conference. Balderdash!

If you'd play with that website a bit more, you'd see that it actually has the Pac12 rated 3rd in conference RPI, and the Big12 first, which is pretty hard to argue at this point in this season IMO. This is as weak as we are likely to see the SEC for awhile IMO...

I think the SEC gets 4 host sites. Maybe 5. Probably not a national seed unless UF finds an offense our South Carolina really heats up.

I'd say this is going to be the year where the SEC only gets 3, 4 max. Arkansas and South Carolina are the locks. Florida, Auburn and Kentucky will bicker over the other spot(s).

Too much of a log jam right now to say which teams host, but there likely will be 3 or 4.

Don't rule out monster finishes by LSU or Florida. Lange and Poche alone should win most series for the cajun folks. And UF is too talented to suck all year long.

Arkansas is FAR from a lock to host.
