I can tell you that every ranked SEC-West team has lost its bowl game this year (so far). Ole Miss, Miss State, LSU, and now Auburn. Would be sweet for Bama to make it unanimous.

Alabama did lose as well, but the original statement is incorrect. Arkansas and Texas A&M are both in the SEC-West and both won their bowl games (over Texas and West Virginia respectively).

But it can’t be, because the SEC is the bestest conference in the world ever. At least that’s the line I’ve been fed. And we shouldn’t let a few facts get in the way of the narrative. I therefore declare the statement false.
