The Big Bad SEC

Postby LA_Mustang » Sat Oct 19, 2013 6:00 pm

I'm confused how a couple of pansy, middle of the road Big XII join their league and completely dominate. These all world defenses are now giving up 30-40 points a game. I realize it is the best conference in college football but it is also overrated. Every year Georgia and SC get ranked in the top 10 then end up losing to spare teams. Eight teams in the top 25 is a joke.

The past 7 national crystal balls tell a different story. When will any of these big 12/ PAC 12 teams with all of the speed finally win? I do think Florida State has a chance this year.

Agreed but they do have the best defensive strategists. Ellis Johnson, Kirby Smary, John Chavis, those are the best defensive minds in the country. They are all in the SEC. 2 of those guys are not head coaching material. Did you see where Ellis used 9 dl's today against A&M. Did you see all the sacks that they had on Johnny in the 4th qtr? Johnny won the battle (yards) but lost the war.

Has one conference ever had four teams in the top 15 lose in the same week? #overrated

I'm aware of that. So let's rank the SEC 1 to 14 and let everyone else play for #15

I would leave Arkansas out right now but top 13 sounds about right.

You do realize you could have said SEC knocks of 4 top 15 teams tonight.

Again, mrydel, yes I get what conference the teams are from. It's semantics. I admit the SEC is the best conference but it's crazy to believe that 8 of the best 25 are from that conference. It's a slap in the face to the PAC 12, Big XII, Big 10 and ACC. It's just my opinion but it is mine.
