It's just gonna be a matter of time until the media outlets figure it out.
Alabama may well be the best team in the country, but they sure as hell haven't done anything to prove it. More likely the best team in the SEC is Florida, which has played well against a schedule that could make an argument. Georgia has exactly one quality win... against Florida.
But seeing as to how Alabama was brought down by an immigrant from the Big 12, And UL-Lafayette has basically been a conference member with 6 SEC opponents (and doing pretty well against a few of them) it is clear the days of total domination have passed.
Besides, Alabama has a nice little history of crapping the bed against Auburn, and if Georgia can forget South Carolina, they certainly can overlook Georgia Tech. The SEC has been handed high ratings all year. I know what the Irish are capable of... we have no idea what the SEC can do, because it is all a southern circle jerk.

Prove it. The subjectivity of rankings makes them (and thus BCS games) irrelevant.

All those "toughest schedule" arguments are shamelessly circular.

I love how highlight the NCAAs precise flaw yet seem to think the worst offender is above it.

I like the Golden Domers (it is a requirement in my family) but ND's schedule has been weak too.
