Conference Championships - 11/27/22 04:48 AM

School me on this please.

How (why?) do they determine the "winner" of the eastern and western conference divisions weeks before the end of regular season?

Case in point. LSU was crowned the SEC west champion weeks ago. But as of today, LSU is 9-3 and Alabama is 10-2. How should Alabama not be the SEC's Western Division champion?

Now GA is going to slaughter LSU, while Bama is the only team in the country that stood a chance of beating Georgia.

Make it make sense.

Bama and LSU are both in the SEC West. Their conference record is 6 wins and 2 losses. LSU is the SEC West champ because the first tie breaker for identical conference records is head to head results. LSU beat Bama so they are the SEC West Champ.

Thanks. At least now I understand how that's decided.
