I gotta buddy who put $100 on Auburn when they were 66-1 odds to win the NC. He said he would treat at the strip club if he wins.

Because college football used to be different. It's about rivalries.

This conference uber-alles is a new bogus phenomenon.

Conferences are just business arrangements. It means nothing.

Teams win. The idea of everyone else in the conference boot-strapping pride and puffing out their chest because Bama wins is pathetic. You didn't win shite. What? You get credit because of geography and a business arrangement?

Conferences don't win anything. If Auburn wins, they are the champs...not the SEC.

And it should rankle their rivals. Not be celebrated. It's asinine and is an affront to what CFB is all about.

College football should be uniting. Not divisive. Conference uber-alles creates imaginary foes and promotes divisiveness and takes away from the school that won.

It's about schools - not geography.

Go Noles. Nothing personal against Auburn but I don't fall in with the SEC homer stuff. I guess it stems from being raised a Red Sox fan. I would never pull for the yankees in a world series because we play in the same division.

I'm cheering for FSU because it's not in UGA's best interests for AU to win the national championship. SEC Pride is worthless.

This^ and yes additional revenue would be generated for every SEC school with an AU victory, but the way our particular system works none of it is earmarked for the athletic department just the general slush fund.

So Frick AU and I hope all their recruits flip on them before February 3rd.

Actually the history of victories by the SEC helped Auburn get in this year, helped Alabama in 2011 get a mulligan, due to past history of the conference, a 1 loss SEC team got into the BCS, so we should all pull for the SEC teams...

Having said that, the BCS is over, the SEC champs will always be in, so I hope yall all get beat....

I'm pulling for FSU because the only SEC team I cheer for is Alabama.
