Axe Posted January 3, 2020 Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 How over rated the SEC is.. 7-2 vs 4-5 You know who is who.. 🤣  No other conference is even close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjp28 Posted January 3, 2020 Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 Easy, Ohio State and Wisconsin let their games get away......and Michigan just got buried. Oh Indiana lost 23-22 tonight against Tennessee, they should have won that one too. That's what flips the W/L numbers around. ........and hey my 10,000th post, how about that.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axe Posted January 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 I didn't bother to mention that the SEC also has a team in the National championship game and the Heisman landslide winner. Those are facts, not wannabe outcomes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLD Woody Posted January 3, 2020 Report Share Posted January 3, 2020 Only SEC fans care about their record in meaningless bowl games at essentially home venues. Would love to see those teams have to come north. Not to mention B1G large and wealthy fan/alumni bases driving them up bowl selection lists. Oh well.

And before that they had a guy from Dayton,  and etc. etc. They get guys from all over.  LSU got the guy they have from Ohio State, from where he transferred, because he could not beat those other guys out. He went from 3rd string at OSU.....to game manager last year.  (16 TDs).....yet this year he went through SEC defenses like they were water. Maybe it says more about SEC defenses than it does him....to have made such a huge leap in his 5th year of college eligibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who cares about borough he plays for LSU. you thought you were so clever.

Heart of SEC country..   I thought they had a chance "if" they got past Clemson -but- a couple of things intervened: 1. LSU snuck ahead of OSU in the last week of the CFB rankings giving them Clemson instead of Oklahoma. The bad start vs Wisconsin probably sealed the #1 spot for LSU. OHIO STATE actually had the better season record but it is subjective and voters can and do vote with their likes. 2. Justin Fields was injured to end the regular season and he just wasn't the same threat with the heavy knee brace allowing Clemson to concentrate more on JK Dobbins. Even his passing game wasn't as sharp. But still the game was a toss up. 3. Clemson is a good ! LSU despite being a 5.5 point favorite will have their hands full...... unless Mr Heisman has another incredible game. Right now I'd probably take Clemson PLUS the points. Still not sure.

I have asked this question:  why the fuck root for a "conference" at all.  I mean, we don't give a damn for the whole state of Michigan, we're from Ohio.  Why the fuck should I root for Michigan or Penn State against some team from some other conference.  If I were a Florida fan, I would say "Fuck Georgia...fuck Alabama, Fuck them all....let them lose to the  other teams from around the country.  They are our rivals and our opponents, and anyone that can put their heel on their necks is fine with me"  And insert Michigan/PSU etc. in this sentence. Listen, freaks.

I root for all the SEC teams in bowl games. There is a reason so many players get drafted so high every year out of the SEC over any other conference and a reason I call it NFL Lite or NFL Jr. The NCAA rankings reflect the reality of that. And football is still King in SEC country with the occasional nod to basketball teams like Ky. and Fla. and baseball teams Ms.St. and LSU.

Â Were you rooting for the SEC teams before A&M decided to jump for money to that conference? Â I mean, for most of your life A&M was in the Southwest Conference or the Big 8/12 whatever. Â If Texas joined the SEC would you be likely to rah rah rah for them? Â Like I said, Â those teams in your conference are your rivals, and you should be saying fuck them all.

TexasAg1969 Posted January 17, 2020 Report Share Posted January 17, 2020 Fortunately the SEC saw Texas as a poisoned pill and did not want them. So much so that A&M has veto power over them ever joining. The PAC-12 was willing to take them along with OU, but not OSU, so OU declined. The thing I like most about the SEC is that all Bowl game net revenues are shared equally among all SEC members. Same for the profits for the SEC Network I believe. Texas wanted their own of everything. It wasn't until they announced they were going to air HS games of recruits on Longhorn Network that A&M recontacted the SEC and asked to join in. The NCAA later ruled that to be an illegal recruiting activity so it never happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â As for Texas wanting to keep their own of everything, maybe that just makes them the only pure capitalist of the NCAA. Â And that may be a Texas thing too, since that is what Jerry Jones tried to accomplish as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
