I know @RaceBannon is being @sarktastic,[/b] or think so…or hope so. Two bottom SECW bottom dweller teams played PAC this year and we know the results. MS St lost their SEC record setting QB but beat a GOOD AZ team when they had him. First year corch, Freeze, took a new team to Cal(Cal too high) and won. But, proof is in the pudding re “SEC” in the only PAC/SEC this year…so far…perhaps still to be continued 2023-2024.
No. It's true.
That a “conference”? Thought we were talking about “conference”?
My bad, pod. Which two you want?
Pod, you're comparing an N of 12 against an N of 14. There are many statistical ways to do that. My understanding was you wanted to do theoretical head to head matchups. To do that, you can't throw away the bottom 2 SEC. They're part of the conference. Both conferences have shitty teams at the bottom. The SEC doesn't get to exclude theirs just because. Throw away equally weighted teams on both sides of the SEC median.
Georgia and Vandy both go, or whatever the #7 and #8 "ranked" SEC teams if you want to take teams out of the middle.
He's not going to understand what "N" means.
When SEC guys argue, they will always "but still" when you bring up their OOC and road game scheduling habits, and when you bring up the shit tier of their conference, which frankly is usually more than one or two teams. Here's a good example:
Forgot about FL. But anyway.
Not sure that "but anyway" put you away, but he thinks it did.
And why work that hard? It's not that insulting; it's just a very top heavy conference with usually one or two really good teams with a big drop off from there. Most SEC teams would find the Pac to be a tough go of it more often than not.
