As a Michigan fan you are right about it not being specific to SEC fans but I'm not sure what you expect.I'm mostly just a viewer when I get time and don't post often but after reading this thread I thought I would chime in.
You seem like an ok guy but you have some serious misunderstandings about this place. I wouldn't go on to any ACC board and expect to not see some black lash if I labeled people as "ACC homers" as soon as I didn't agree with them on a topic. The SEC is very proud of their "dominance" in recent history and while it can be over the top a lot of the time, it is warranted to a certain extent. We are definitely finding a better balance in CFB now though. You also come across as extremely passive-aggressive a lot of the times, even if that is not what you are trying to do. I guess I'm just saying you should be more open and not so closed minded. Hope this helps
We need more posters from outside the SEC on this board
He's always been like this...

i would say you are passive aggressive. you are talking down to me, and I didn't ask for your advice on anything.
i don't agree the SEC has dominated football. again, conferences don't win titles, TEAMS do. best team in country doesn't mean they played in best conference. why is this so hard to grasp?
football isn't some kind of tag team conference competition. lol
most of SEC's recent tiles were Meyer and Saban teams.

ur 1981 season is tainted as frick. Deal with it. Might as well consider it as legitimate as Barry Bonds's HR record.
i agree, it was a poll decided season. i like the playoff format.
nobody on that 81 team was illegally recruited. the probation dealt with a Clemson booster, and two guys in TN who never played at CLemson or anywhere as far as i know.

I apologize if it came off that way, that wasn't my intent. Of course you didn't ask for it, you probably didn't know who I was before I posted that.
Sometimes the best advice is the one you didn't ask for

I'm not sure how you can say that the SEC didn't dominate from 2007-2012. It is very ignorant to say otherwise. 7 straight championships speak for themselves. Now having said that I can agree that they can be over the top at times and we have much more parity now which is great.

I'm not sure what you are trying to say. I'm not claiming it is, we all do play in conferences though and can be grouped that way.

Maybe but I have only really seen his posts in this thread. Just thought I would over some advice from an outsider because if he expects this to be some type of "safe space" then he would be mistaken.

a SEC team winning the national title isn't proof that the SEC was overall the best conference. you can parrot that line all day but it isn't evidence.
if SEC team wins the bball tournament this year, are you really going to argue SEC was best conference this year? lol they only got 5 teams in.

never said anytig about wanting safe space but i don't just start talking up Clemson out of the blue as you and other hacks like to depict it.
i'm cool with people talking trash but they get mad at me for defending my college.

It wasn't just titles that defined it as the best in that stretch run...look at the records verses the other conferences in head to head games. The Pac-12 was the only conference with a respectable record and they lost any game that mattered. It really started in 2006, but people didn't realize they were wrong about which conference had the strongest test that season until Florida blitzkrieg OSU.

If you were talking about one/two or just three years I might agree but seven in a row speaks for itself.

No but comparing the NCAA tournament to the way CFB postseason is handled is very foolish. We can draw from their being 3 teams in the elite 8 that the SEC was probably better than what some thought but they certainly weren't the best or top 3 imo.

i dn't think SEC was playing that many P5 teams OOC.

Fair enough, I just think the titles is the easiest/first thing to look at I guess

Thinking it verses looking at the actual evidence and the NCAA probe and the letter of clearance which was unprecedented in NCAA history are two different things.

ok, i disagree. and again, most of the recent SEC titles were Bama and Florida. you can't say it is the best conference based on 2 programs.

Most bowl seasons the SEC plays 10 games and all of those generally are against P5 teams. The upper 2/3 of the SEC has always played 1 P5 team each season. A SEC rule now requires MSU and Ole Miss to step it up.

Ok, you are certainly welcome to your opinion. I guess the next thing to ask would be who had the best conference in that stretch? And why do you think that?
Posted on 3/25/17 at 9:28 pm to Tigerman97
how often do you see P5 teams play the lower half of the SEC?
for example, when CLemson plays SEC teams in regular season, it is one of the better programs like uga and auburn.
