Consider the strength of the SEC West through the first month of the 2014 season:
• SEC West teams are 22-0 against teams not in the division and are winning those games by an average margin of 34 points. SEC West teams are a combined 24-2, with the only losses coming against each other. Along with Auburn's victory over Arkansas, Mississippi State upset LSU 34-29 on the road last week.
• The SEC West has a 99.3 rating on a 0-100 scale in ESPN's division power rankings, which is 33 points higher than any other division in college football.
• Each of the SEC West teams rank in the top 20 of ESPN's Football Power Index, which is more teams than the Big 12, Big Ten and ACC have combined. The top three teams in the FPI are from the SEC West: No. 1 Alabama, No. 2 Texas A&M and No. 3 Auburn.
• Five SEC West teams (Alabama, Auburn, Ole Miss, Mississippi State and Texas A&M) rank in the Top 25 among FBS teams in both scoring offense and scoring defense. Texas A&M is No. 2 in scoring offense (55.3 points per game) and No. 8 in scoring defense (11.8 points). Arkansas is No. 3 in scoring offense (48.8 points), and the Razorbacks and Aggies are on pace to break the SEC scoring record set by Florida (46.6 points) in 1996.

I hope the SEC West team that represents the SEC don't get mud stomped by Oklahoma. Then all that bragging about the SEC West would be for nothing.

The real season is about to start. Let us know how awesome the West is in December when everyone has been eating each other alive for a few months.

You're nothing. Get off our nuts.

Actually. You are nothing. You haven't even played a west team yet. So you get off our nuts. Arkansas has proven itself better than you have.

Jealousy? Psh. I wouldn't want to be in that division. We have enough trouble with a weaker East.
I would never want all 7 teams in the East to be good at the same time. Not that I have to worry about that.
