Agreed, on the what if's. My point was if Johnston, would have survived and completed a decisive Victory at Shiloh, things would have been much different.

This is a long post but I am very familiar with the Texas A&M Foundation and PUF Endowment.

re: Is Clemson the most SEC-like team outside the conference?

If Clemson was in North Carolina instead of South Carolina, I would bet the SEC would be ready to soon vote them into the SEC as number 14. They would be perfect, but are located in the wrong state.
