LSU's insecurity complex is baffling.

i mean it sounds bias but you have to make an argument for LSU
3 titles is better than 2 titles
the rest are close enough that you can make an argument that a national championship trumps as couple of SEC titles and less wins.

I had no idea that the only member of the Big Six that Tennessee has a winning record against is LSU.

In that case,
Tennessee has more wins, SEC Championships, Bowls, Bowl Wins, and a better winning percentage than LSU, as well as a lead in the All-Time series

Since 2000, LSU has been way better than Tennessee. I know UT fans seem to think they are coming back but I just don't see it myself. UT has passed its prime and will eventually get passed by several teams
Ok. The same could be said for LSU when they were having 2/3 win seasons. Something Tennessee has ever done.

That's you being unreasonable.

Let me make something clear, you didn't provide any data I haven't already seen. The problem is that in the past when I've promoted use of that list, it is ALWAYS shot down as being, you guessed it, unreasonable.
Face it, there is no one list that all schools use, and what really kills your list for practical use is that EVEN ALABAMA DOESN'T USE THAT LIST because it's unreasonable.

yet you insist that the one you prefer must be the one that everybody believes.
Good lord, are you EVER reasonable?
I said no such thing. I present that list as a reasonable authoritative list that most reasonaable people could agree to it's acceptability for common use. I made no mention to any 'belief systems'. lulz

That sounds bad but UGA's only winning record v B6 is UF.
UF only has UT and LSU.
LSU only has AU and UGA
AU only has UF and UGA
Its a really competitive league.

No. They 5 sec titles since 1970.
And 7 since 1968, the same as LSU.
In that time span UT has more bowl appearances and more total wins.

Well, except for the school that is 5-0 vs other Power 6's, yes

Bama is clear number 1, no argument from me. I'm not an idiot. It still pains me to admit It tho.
So frick you.

I really didn't start the thread as a TN troll thing. I'd still put TN #2. They are 2nd in basically every category. They are in a similar spot Bama was in 2006, which was another 10 years like the previous 10 and you fall down the pecking order. A good next 10 and things stay the same.

Its all a big cycle. Hopefully UT can start trending back up. Although I'm sure the feeling isn't mutual

Eh, I don't like Tennessee and I love to see them suffer........but I can admit it's more fun when that game is a big deal. And, quite frankly, I'm tired of hearing people question why we still play the game. So, while I don't WANT Tennessee to be good, I do think it would be fun if you were. If that makes sense.
Still hate you, obviously.

We can definitely agree on that.

Who defines "reasonable"? The average person you get on these boards gets their information from google or some other canned website which doesn't hold much historical perspective. People lacking historical perspective don't have good opinions. Therefore, the average opinion you get is not good.
I don't care if it's "reasonable" or not. I don't presume to define what's reasonable. I worry about others who do, or at least presume to put their definition of "reasonable" over what's factual. All I stated was teams get their title information from the NCAA record book. Nobody gets it from the link you gave. Feel free to give an example of teams that use the list you gave.

When a debate makes Alabama people bring up losing for almost a decade straight to a program they hate as a reason to continue playing said program.........I mean I don't know what else you need to know about it.

You're right.
AU has UT and UF
Honest mistake
The point still stands. If you're not Bama, it's really hard to consistently win v B6 teams.
