I didn't even know who won that game until Monday

I hate Bama and UGA, so why watch a game in which I'm guaranteed to be unhappy with the outcome? These exclusionary tactics of the SEC, B1G, and TV networks are repulsive and unethical. A pox on their house for what they've done to college athletics. I'd be ok with the ACC and B12 separating and playing with STUDENT athletes and having meaningful regional rivalries without the orgy of greed.
