No.
The odds against that happening has to be in the millions to one range.
Imagine the odds against simply picking a five-game parlay against the spread.
Now, figure that zero-spread pick'em parlay's can be bet for ten game cards and the odds against winning one of those is exponentially higher than the five game cards that include the spreads.
So no, I do not believe the SEC can, or will, go 11-0 in bowl games. Just too many variables thrown in to deem it a good bet.

No way, if we can get better than .500 I'll be happy. The SEC has been a dumpster fire, in general this year.

The only way UF would be sure to win is if they were playing the Vo11s. Even when Tenn was SEC champion in 1969 the Gators beat them in a bowl game, then took their coach which set the program back for 11 years.

That was not an accident, btw

Was that Dickey? I'm guessing that was Dickey? If it was, he turned-out to be a very decent AD though. Was excellent at blowing Kramer .... allowed Tennessee to run rampant through the 90s. They pretty much were allowed to write their own rules under the Dickey/Kramer love affair.

Actually ole miss has done a hell of a lot better in their bowl games than the piggies . Arkansas is something like 14 wins and 23 losses . You really have no room to talk when it comes to bowl games

Ole Miss is going to embarrass the conference again. Book it!

No, but I did get a kick out of Cowheard trying to troll SEC fans a couple of days ago by pointing out that the PAC was 4-0 in bowl games.
Gildan New Mexico Bowl
Arizona 45, New Mexico 37
Royal Purple Las Vegas Bowl
(22) Utah 35, BYU 28
Hyundai Sun Bowl
Washington State 20, Miami (FL) 14
Zaxby's Heart of Dallas Bowl
Washington 44, Southern Miss 31
Foster Farms Bowl
Nebraska 37, UCLA 29
Miami was rolling with a staff on the way out and no HC. BYU gifted 5 turnovers to Utah in the first quarter, has an outgoing HC, has a freshman at QB, and still made it a game. New Mexico was clearly outclassed in talent by Arizona and lost their starting QB during the game yet somehow had a chance for a game tying drive late. The only win out of those that is somewhat impressive is Washington running all over Southern Miss but they still gave up a bunch of points.

We won't go 11-0. I can punch my mom in the face, but I'm not going to.

Virtually no chance, but the collective butthurt from the other conferences would be staggering.
The reactions from the other conferences would be awesome =)

Bet he loved UCLA getting beat by a 5-7 team.

The odds of winning all 11 games are insane. But, the odds of winning the 2 that really count are pretty good.
