I was just reading an article on MSN about Bobby Bowden saying FSU was better off in the ACC because the SEC is too tough to get through. The writer adds that this year may have been a "perfect" example of this because only one SEC team made the Playoffs and they got beat by OSU because they were worn down. He also says many people feel they (Alabama) were the best team.
