This conference once upon a time always supported its own, no matter the situation.

A lot of the youngsters who post here don't remember the days when SEC was supreme in football but this wasn't understood nationally. Think Auburn's undefeated non-NC season for just one example.

All they've known is supremacy in the sport that counts. This had in turn brought on an elitist mentality whereby we regard other conferences as inferior and consider games against schools from within our own conference as the only games that count.

That's the only reason I can see for this relatively new phenomenon.
