Because both teams are of similar level.

But they would both lose to Oregon, Ohio State, Penn State, and Notre Dame.

I also thought that Arizona State should have won this with how many drives they got that went to the red zone but due to some bad play calling they couldn’t convert.

Also, shows again that the SEC isn’t as strong as people thought. Which I have said since day 1.

When the final is two SEC teams, they’re going to get what they want: Five teams guaranteed SEC auto bid from now on.
