Everybody started out together on a level playing field at or around the year 1900.
Some universities chose to invest in football, some chose not to, and some were just not very good at it and were choked out of the conversation by their neighboring superiors.
Regardless of all that has transpired in the century prior to now, one would have to think that dwarfing all in-state competition and truly owning your home territory is an impressive accomplishment regardless of state.
LSU and Tennessee
I would include Missouri and Arky but they are not really SEC.
Who else has a case?

LSU, UGA and Tennessee are the clear cut programs in their state.

Tha frick is this?
ETA: Tech figuratively came from UGA's balls. A UGA man co-founded the school and we own them in just about everything.
