"Washingron State (dreck of the P12) is losing to MWC teams, the B1G, and barely beating D2."
Fixed that for you. See also Vandy. Or good ole Mizzou.
The P12 isn't horrible - just virtually indistinguishable (even) from top to bottom. The SEC is the best conference until their current sweet gig (schedule, etc) doesn't work any more.
Let just hope that the P12 doesn't get left out of the playoffs while the SEC gets two teams in.
We need a clear leader to emerge from the P12 and so far we got nothing. Zip. Nadda. The exact opposite of abundance.

that took about 30 seconds of googling, im sure there are better examples.
it's pretty common knowledge that travelling across the country is much more difficult than travelling one state over.

Here's the thing about SEC SEC SEC.
Winners win. Losers lose. For the most part, the losing teams in the SEC don't make excuses or try to rationalize it. They do what they feel needs to be done to make themselves into a winning program. A lot of times that starts with firing the coach. The winners in the SEC are winners because they have figured out what needs to be done in every facet of the overall program to beat all the others. Competition breeds success, and that all stems from the fans, the boosters, the community, the coaches, and the media. When someone loses a game down there you don't here the bullshit rationalizing, and if you do you don't hear it tolerated by many, because excuses never lead to greatness. Part of that is cultural, and part of that is making winning college football games a priority.
They all hate each other's teams and there are differences in the fan bases, but there is an understanding that they all have the same goal as individuals, which is winning national championships and popping off. And as always, there is something to be learned from that that can be applied on so many levels. Some of you just need to dig deeper.

"West coast teams traveling east" you fucking dumbshit. Think. It's not a travel issue, it's a time zone issue. So you fucking tell me who you want the SEC to play that's 3 hours ahead of them?

That was ONE article dumb fuck. Jesus you and Race are the queens of cherry picking.
The same concept applies for East Coast teams travelling west. Look at that winning percentage dick breath. It's tuff to play earlier too.
Circadian rhythm you bitch ass wigga.
Cherry picking = destroying lame arguments

No, because because you're a prideful little shit who lacks the common sense as to consider the arguments (based off factual evidence) that have been laid out before you by others who "get it" far more than you do. And if you can't think critically and see some of the reasoning that others are making, at least have the common sense to stop making fucktarded arguments and just say LIPO and shut the fuck up. Embarrassing.

SEC OOC road games this season:
Oklahoma, Toledo, Clemson, Louisville, West Virginia, Texas Tech, Kansas State, Wisconsin, Boise State
P12 OOC road games this season:
Virginia, Texas, Hawaii, Hawaii, Northwester, UMass, New Mexico, Nevada, Boston College, Michigan, Notre Dame
Yea, what a huge disparity. Not to mention that Texas and Michigan are burning in their dumpsters.

So I guess by PostGameFIreMarshall's logic the Pac gains a huge advantage everytime BC or Virginia travel cross country to visit a Pac12 school, whereas the SEC doesn't get nearly the same home field advantage when it's just Oklahoma or Florida State traveling a much shorter distance to visit them.
Maybe the SEC is even better than we realized.

The difference between the SEC and the Pac-12 in titles over the past decade is a lot like the Oregon v Washington "rivalry" during the past decade.
