two other SEC games as they did last year. Now they're no longer "elite" next year (essentially because they lost to ND).
Couple that with say other SEC teams rising (LSU, Florida or TAMU for example). Talk will be that ND beat the 3 loss SEC team. but not one of the "Elite" SEC teams of 2019. "If only ND had played one-loss Florida or TAMU, then we'd have a valuable data point, but 3 loss Georgia just doesn't quite qualify."
Just sayin'...
