But they also beat two teams that we lost to, finished higher in the conference than we did, and had a more difficult OOC schedule than we did.

It doesn't have to be a convincing argument for the Outback. They just need a valid reason. They have several. Getting upset about it is not going to change it.
- they lost to us and Auburn. So your "they beat two teams we lost to" doesn't fly.

- They played South Carolina and we played Florida. There is your conference record difference.

There isn't a penny's worth of difference between the resumes other than we beat them and we are ranked higher by the most important poll.

Right on par with our shitty fan base to vouch for other schools over your own. It's a Mississippi tradition that's held this state back for 150 years.
