The SEC: A Falcon Punch of Reality, Right to the Taint

[XocolateThundarr]

Simply respond to everything they say with, "Whatever, Jethro.".

Here's a question:  ask them what Georgia's second best conference win was, and when they say "Vanderbilt," laugh incredulously, then repeat the question.

I'm hoping for Taj Boyd to stick around at Clemson, and for them and Louisville to go undefeated through their pud schedules and wind up in the BCS title game.  I'm sure it would piss a ton of people off. I don't know how likely it is, especially for L'Ville as they have zero SOS, but both Bridgewater and Boyd would be Heisman frontrunners and that would prob help rankings.

ESPN has them at 8 and 9 AKAIK in their early rankings for next year.

Both of those teams have tougher schedules than Alabama and Texas A&M next season.

Tell them football is not a valid export and they need to contribute something else to our country other than that.  You may use Nebraska as an example.

You can show them this Klein vs. Manziel comparo graphic from the Texas game:

I argued that point with countless people and they all fell back to "WELL HE BEAT BAMA AND THE SEC IS THE BEST CONFERENCE ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH SO SUCK IT" 

I should just rough ridin' argue with an ibex instead.

[Cire]

Pretty hard to argue against them when they have probably the 3 best teams in the country.

not saying the rest of the conference ISN't complete dog crap but atm bama and georgia were really really good this year.

The same georgia that nebraska was giving it all it could handle till the wheels fell off?

Or the atm that only beat 3 "decent" teams above .500?

Bama was the only really legit team out of the SEC this year, and they almost had another loss until Les Miles went full derp in the last 2 mins of that game to throw it away.

Bama in the big 12 this year would have lost 3-4 games.  They couldn't handle the pass at all and baylor/OSU/TT/(maybe even WVU) would have given them more than they could have handled.

That is quite a stretch.  Bama is really good.

Is this a serious post?  Come on man the big 12 was crappy this year.  A conference title is a conference title and I'll take it but let's not pretend we just ran the gauntlet.  OU sucked against every decent team they played all year and still finished 8-1 in the big 12.  The big 12 has two legit national football schools and both are down right now. 

What was the best non league win any big 12 team had all season?  Maybe the bowl wins against Oregon State or maybe UCLA.  The SEC had bowl wins against Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Michigan, Nebraska etc. and regular season wins against Michigan, Florida State, Clemson etc.  Even the so called crappy SEC teams like MU, Tennesee, Kenctucky etc. had some solid non con wins.  I hate to say it but the SEC is just that much better it's not close at all.

Georgia beat Florida.

Who in the hell else did they beat?

KSU went 7-1 against BCS AQ teams over .500, aTm going 2-2, and bama going 3-1(4-1 if you count the SEC ship).

And LOL @ beating those stellar big 10 schools(barely, northwestern also destroyed Miss state), and also getting prison raped by the big east juggernaut that is Louisville.

Texas RAPED ole miss who gave LSU all they could handle too.

When the SEC gets 9 conference games, and some parity, while also keeping the ridiculous amount of teams in the top 25 like it does, then it can claim it is the best conference "and it isn't even close", but until then they are just an over hyped conference that plays the system to its advantage and gets away with it.

Is this the thread where we congratulate mu fans for Alabama's National Title.

[catzacker]

Is this the thread where we congratulate mu fans for Alabama's National Title.

The SEC won the SEC and a national championship, so I would imagine mu fans are elated to get both those monkeys off their backs.

We also got the ball run up our buttholes by the only good team we faced this year (after having a month to prepare for them).  To me, that is a much better indicator of how good we are than the fact that we went 7-1 against BCS AQ.  I guess what i'm saying is, you're a dumbass.

Find a point of contention 99% of a fanbase will disagree with, add in a dash of an insult to something KStateO and voila! Its a Kim Carnes post!

Oregon was going to prison rape anyone they faced in a bowl game.  Alabama and ND should send Stanford a Thank You card.
