Are division championships something to be proud of?

Only weigh in if your team is a member of the big 5. Obviously if you're arkansas, miss state, and missouri division championships are all you have. Every program should forever remember national championship teams, sec championship teams, and now cfp teams, but what about teams that only win the division?

Winning the division should be the bare minimum expectations for 6-7 schools in this conference.

I'm glad we have at least one 
But it's not something I go around bragging about to anyone.

Ring-worthy IMO

I mean, it's one of the reasons Ohio state got in the playoff over Bama - displacedcuckeye

I'd be quietly embarrassed to be a goofy fricking UGA fan right now. Ya'll are just so "happy to be there" it is really cringey

It means you had a good season, but came up short.
I think making the CFP is this same, if dont win it all.

In the West? Sure. In the east...

They apparently are in Athens.

If you've never won the whole thing then what else do you have to be proud of??
For the conf major programs it's just a part of the end goal. I start the season just focusing on wanting to make it to ATL.
CFP has to many outside factors to worry about it early on. Unless going undefeated were my expectations which is unrealistic.

I didn’t know division champ was even a thing. I would just say “we won the west” I would never say “we were west champs”

Back in the day (2001) UT made fun of us bc we were going to do rings regardless of if we won Sec championship

Winning the SEC West is harder than winning any other conference...then you must face the east champion

I remember what gene Stallings said one year when he was told Bama had just won the west " who cares about that?" 
I see where it might matter at ole miss but I'd be embarrassed if Bama highlighted division titles.

I believe they should do away with championship games. Winnng your division and conference really doesn't mean as much anymore.

If UGA played in the same division as Saban, you guys would be tickled fricking pink.

They are a good start.
If you aren't regularly winning the division you're in you're probably not winning anything else of more note.

It is one goal of 4.
1. Win division
2. win SECCG
3. Make playoff
4. Win NC
1 and 2 are entirely in your control.
1 and 2 give you a better shot at 3 and 4

Division lives matter

If you're in the SECw, then yes. Go ahead and make fun of my school, like always, for hanging our shitty banner. But don't act like winning the best division in college football doesn't mean anything. It means more than any other division title in CFB.
