College football is no place for humility. Other conferences constantly accuse the SEC of being arrogant, but they're all that way. Hell, the B1G is as arrogant as it gets.
I tend to think of our conference as having a chip on its shoulder that comes from decades of marginalization at the hands of the USCs, Notre Dames, and media who paid very little attention to what went on in the Southeast. Sometimes it comes off as arrogance, and plenty of SEC folks are arrogant even having little notion of that history. But I don't think we're special in being arrogant; we're just currently on top.

Every year ND, Big 10 and Big 12 fans put on a charade about how the SEC isn't that great, their conferences are just as good and their teams would clobber SEC teams.
Every year the Notre Dames, Oklahomas and Michigans and the other banner wavers of their respected confereces play an SEC member and get absolutely crushed.
Honestly the only conference that aren't jackasses about football is the ACC, who has a surprisingly successful track record against the SEC considering how much better we are and NCs won compared to them
