re: The SEC becomes All-Time Winning Percentage boss

The main reason you should count forfeited and vacated wins and shite is because that is completely subjective NCAA crap.

Every single major program would have hundreds of vacated wins if everything that ever happened was known.

NCAA probation and penalties are mostly a function of who got caught, not a function of actual rule breaking.

The penalties are also all over the place. Some teams get a slap on the wrist for something, and then another team gets hammered for it, etc.

As such, the only thing that matters is what actually happened on the field.

I see the footnote, but I'm not sure this applies to us. That said, I don't disagree. The NCAA can vacate games officially all it wants, but that doesn't change the fact that the games were played and, for the most part, never involved a team gaining a substantial on-field advantage. The NCAA is just the official tally-keeper -- it has no say in how everyone else chooses to handle the games. I say, count 'em unless a provable on-field advantage occurred in the process of whatever violation is being punished.
