Week 12 SEC Bowl Projections

SEC bowl slotting continues to hinge largely on whether the conference gets 2 teams into BCS Bowls. As I've mentioned in previous posts, if Auburn wins the Iron Bowl the SEC will almost assuredly get 2 in. If Alabama wins, it most likely will not. With that in mind, I'll run 2 sets of projections. These picks are predicated on Georgia beating Georgia Tech, Mississippi failing to gain bowl eligibility and Tennessee doing so by winning out, including defeating UK.

Important: (If you are reading this later, this was posted before any results of the November 20th games)

Auburn wins:

National Championship
Auburn

Sugar
LSU

Capital One
Alabama

Cotton
Arkansas

Ouback
South Carolina

Chick-Fil-A
Mississippi State

Gator
Florida

Music City
Tennessee

Liberty

Georgia


Auburn loses to Alabama

Sugar

Capital One

Cotton

I love that one of the blogs you follow is discussing the Cats in the Motor City Bowl and another is discussing the Cats playing New Years Day in the Gator bowl.

By the way, I was joking about rooting for UT. This is the year! Do you know if the Cats are favored?

I hear that UT opened -3. Seems a little high. I'd rather do that than Birmingham. Still, I want to win. I've also decided that I cannot bring myself to root for Auburn over Alabama, so other than just rooting for UK, I'm going to play this how it lays.
Stewart Mandel says Vegas wants Notre Dame bad, so Detroit is looking more like the play now. I've talked myself into the Motor City, if that is how it shakes out. Reasonable drive, casinos, indoor game, easy win.
