Memo to the SEC haters

[puppylove_sugarsteel]

I'm fine with other conferences stepping up. It's not all about the Pac 12, although that would be cool.

I don't get how people outside of the South aren't tired of the SEC.

I'm tired of the other conferences not stepping up and being better than the SEC. The SEC has been better than everyone else for awhile, though not as much as everyone thought. But the gap is widening. This year the SEC really is massively better than everyone else. Your SEC fatigue might be around for a few years.

Because why? Put any SEC west team against equal number of the best pac12 teams, on a neutral field and its 50/50. How do you p r ove otherwise? T hey just beat each other up in both conferences. Why is SEC better? Have they proved it OOC? The pac12 did (sans Sarks masterpiece at BC). Fuck your SEC.

Interesting find as of Aug 13, 2012 (To lazy to bring the list current myself):

SEC vs. PAC-12 regular season: 10-12
SEC vs. PAC-12 bowl games: 1-0
SEC vs. Big 12 regular season: 6-10
SEC vs. Big 12 bowl games: 21-8
SEC vs. ACC regular season: 42-36
SEC vs. ACC bowl games: 16-9
SEC vs. Big 10 regular season: 7-4
SEC vs. Big 10 bowl games: 19-19
SEC vs. Big East regular season: 16-15
SEC vs. Big East bowl game: 3-8

That doesn't look all that dominant to me.

Don't bother. I've posted that before. SEC apologists hate facts.

Why did Mississippi St leapfrog FSU again? Did MSU play ND (or anyone) OOC? Why did ND drop to 10th?

The pac-12 proved what in OOC? The SEC beat Clemson KSU WVU ECU, Wisconsin and BSU in non conference, lost to who? Indiana? That's about it. Who did the pac beat who outside of MSU?

The coaches sure seem to like the SEC right now.

The best team in the Pac-12 South lost at home by 35 to UCLA.

You might want to consult George O'Leary, but I think it has something to do with an abundance of blue gums on the field, specifically in the trenches.

Massively better? Let's talk December 6th

The M schools are a flash in the pan. Within two years they will be forgotten. Alabama schools might sustain something. Florida..meh, maybe. Georgia is a choking joke. LSU...seems to be a 9-3 team. M schools are like when the Cougs made a Rose Bowl, then were 4-7 in a year or two.

Ohio State was just undefeated but ineligible for anything and ignored. FSU just won it all. (Ex) middle tier Big 12 teams have done fine in the SEC. It's a really good league, but it won't be on top forever. It's not even on top right now judging by last year's NC.

Five weeks isn't likely to make you rational about this, but sure, let's talk.

The SEC will still be dominating the human and computer poles on December 6th. Of that I am certain.

And lol at the idea that FSU winning the NC last year means the SEC is no longer the best conference. Unless you actually want to argue the ACC was the best conference last season, in which case I'm all ears.

Who said the ACC was better? Not me. But people keep going back to seven straight. You can't have it both ways.

When one team wins a championship it doesn't necessarily mean the conference is the best. When a conference wins 7 straight through 4 different programs it's evidence that the conference is the best.

The SEC was the best conference last year, and no matter who wins the NC this year the SEC is clearly the best this year. Even with the mediocrity that is the SEC East. The SEC West is ridiculous.

Auburn's win at K State is better than any Pac12 win, and the SEC has a handful of other quality OOC wins (West Virginia, Clemson, Wisconsin, etc) whereas the Pac has what, Virginia?

The SEC was far superior to the Pac in the OOC this year and it's not even close.

K State is lame. Oregon beat the shit out of them in the Fiesta Bowl. Oregon's beat down of Michigan State is more impressive. Especially if Michigan State wins the rest of their games, which they'll probably do. K State won't.

Denver is lame. The Seahawks beat the shit out of them in the Super Bowel.
