How narrow minded you all are.
So you really want to hear ESPN talk how great the PAC 12 is all year?




There's a good chance aTm finishes last in the West... No one cares what the last place team does.

Arkansas and LSU don't need to worry about being on the playoff bubble

I'm rooting for ASU. This philosophy doesn't apply to the SEC. Everyone respects is enough to just take care of your business. No need for style points.

Tis true. The reputation of the conference gives us all the benefit of the doubt when decisions like rankings, bowl games, and even playoff spots are decided. And remember, playoff spots aren't determined by a computer algorithm that rates teams in an unbiased manner but by humans who are very much effected by such things as reputation and national opinion.

"Who's in?" is very much influenced by opinion and it benefits us all to keep public opinion on our side. If we don't then it could be any one of us that winds up getting snubbed on anything from better bowl games to playoff spots and/or seeding.

I'll root for Kyle Allen and Josh Reynolds to have good numbers because they're on my fantasy team.

But rooting for the Sun Devils to win because I picked them in my pick em

Bacon and eggs actually, its my traditional gameday breakfast.

I'll be cheering for the Aggies, but not for conference pride or respect. No, I'll be cheering for the Aggies to do well until they play Arkansas for the SWC crown.

I wonder if we will sell more tickets for that game then the Gumps did for Whiskey?

Im not rooting for aTm, but I hope they win. I dont expect it, but good luck aggies.

Bama will skull frick Wisconsin. No challenge. That game will never be in doubt even though the score may not reflect it.

Go SunDevils
Go Badgers

SEC pride is overrated. I want my teams rivals to lose.
