I know all 4 teams won there conference but it would've made our argument to get in pretty solid. A one lost SEC team and our only lose would've been a 25-20 lost @ Bama. It's just something to think about.
Somebody with way, way too much time on their hand could probably look at who UM beat us for that we probably would have signed on an even playing field (I'm not sure it would have been that many), who we wouldn't have signed as a result of getting one or two of UM's recruits (do we miss out on somebody like Taveze (who I'm pretty sure was a last second take? Or McKinney (not as sure)?).
And then look at which games that likely would have changed.
And to dig further, you'd want to look at how each change impacted a subsequent class. Would getting CJ Johnson and B-Mac make Richie Brown pick another place?
