they had Michigan, Utah State, and Weber state to round out their non conf. opp. trade Weber and shitigan for a decent 20ish ranked team and they'd have been in the top 5 I think. I just think it's weird... how everyone claims the SEC and Big 12 are so much better than any other conferences... lets see... USC stomped tOSU Texas barely beat tOSU Texas Stomped Oklahoma Texas Tech barely beat Texas Mississippi barely beat Florida Mississippi stomped Texas Tech. Florida beat shitville Utah stomped shitville Utah barely beat Oregon State Oregon State barely beat USC USC stomped Oregon Oregon stomped Oklahoma State I'd say at least the pac10, SEC, and Big 12 are on equal ground. the SEC getting the nod in my book for a bit more depth. I'd like to see (and I hear rumors one is in the works for USC) the Pac10 and the SEC to do a home and home. |

The SEC is far superior to just about every conference, IMO.

Pac 10, lol you are dreaming. Big 12 is closer than the Pac 10 to the SEC and that's not close.

FAR superior? no... I'm sorry.
they don't play big out of conference games but maybe one or two a year... they are the best conference imo by pure depth... but not far superior... top team in each conference order would be imo USC Florida Texas Penn St. 2nd Oklahoma Oregon shitville Ohio St. 3rd Texas Tech Georgia Oregon St. Michigan St. 4th Mississippi California Iowa Missouri |

The Pac-10 went 5-0 in their bowl games. No other conference could do that.

The thing is the 2nd team in the SEC if they showed up could play with and beat the first team in every other conference. The 3rd team could hang and possibly win against the first team. The top 10 SEC teams could beat anyone listed in the 3rd-4th position. We don't need high caliber out of conference games because we beat the fuck out of each other all year as a high caliber conference. The pac 10 either has to play shitty or good ooc because they are middle caliber and only have up or down to go. Big 12 and Big 10 can't say shit about SEC's ooc games. Depth is superiority, we are a good conference all around and that's the entire point.

We did go 5-0 if we throw out 3 teams, but we had 8 freakin bowl eligible teams most playing quality opponents and not mid majors.

you could say the same thing about the pac 10. had the same team that beat USC played Penn State... or Oregon... or Utah... or stanford Oregon State would have gone undefeated and could have given the best in the SEC a good game...
I conceeded the point that the SEC is deep... but they're not FAR superior. sorry... if they'd play a tough out of confrence schedule... you'd see that. who played NO ONE out of conference to build up that record |
