....and these idiots still don't realize what "conference clout" does for their school's prestige AND pocketbook.

Not to mention thta when the SEC is perceived to be strong and is winning championships we get the benefit of the doubt in the years to come when it is a close call. If a 1 loss Alabama (or Georgia) and a 1 loss Ohio State comes down to going to the playoffs who do you think the committee picks if other things are equal? The team from the tougher conference, maybe?

I also get that we (SEC teams) go for many of the same recruits, and you hate to see another team get a leg up on recruiting. It does help recruiting when a team wins a Championship.

Two ways to look at it, I guess.
