Arksulli wants to try to claim that there is no "Big 6" in the modern era.... not sure what he believes to be the modern era.
But if you take 1992... the year Arkansas joined the SEC... the "Big 6" has only strengthened its argument.
In 1992, Florida was coming off its first SEC Championship. Meanwhile, Ole Miss had 5 SEC Titles and were 24 years closer to their most recent one than they are today. At that time, we were only 16 years removed from a "non Big 6" team winning an SEC Title, when Kentucky did it in 1976. But now, instead of being 16 years removed, we are 40 years removed... a generation.
In 1992, you could have made an argument that Ole Miss was a better program than Florida.... and the "Big 6" was not quite as well defined.
But today, the "Big 6" is better defined than ever before.
