Of the best. So at that point, you let a team like BYU in to see if they can prove that they can beat the best of the best or not.
Sec teams shouldn't be able to have their cake and eat it too. Get to be in the sec, get all the money, the benefit of the doubt, the home games, the lack of travel, the fertial recruiting areas, etc, and then also say well our losses were against really good teams so we should get in.
You've already used your privilege of being in the conference as proof during the regular season you couldn't get it done.
Now let a team that has proven they can beat anyone else in the country that's not in the top of the P2's (and without all those privileges) get their chance to prove they can or can't get it done.
I don't want to speak too prematurely cuz we've been a little shaky and squeaking by on some games and still have some tough games left. But regardless of what happens to us, I'm making my point with a general train of thought.
... this is in response to some pundits saying even if we only lose in the conference Championship game, we shouldn't get in and we should be a one-bed league and another SEC team should get in instead.
