Southeastern Conference teams are not only terrific at winning in the postseason, they're equally great against the pointspread.
The SEC has a 19-7 record the last three postseasons, by far the best record of any conference. Only two other Bowl Championship Series conferences — the Big East and Pacific 10 — have winning postseason records against the number.
The teams with the best records against the spread during the regular season were Florida and Oklahoma. Each team finished 10-2, but the Gators got the cover against the Sooners in the BCS title game, thus becoming the pointspread champion at 11-2. Each team played a I-AA opponent and there were no odds on those games.
The straight-up records of each conference for the past three postseasons are after the jump. Click a chart for an enlarged view.
