re: SEC is unique in that we pull for each other...

I do pull for LSU first and SEC second. Anyone who wants other SEC teams to lose OOC games is an idiot. The PAC12 conference just received a huge TV contract based on the entire conference. This means more $$ for every conference team. More $$ is better for every SEC team. Right now...Vandy, Kentucky, and even UGA are benefiting from the huge BCS payouts coming from LSU/BAMA. Who doesn't think that BAMA being in the SEC had something to do with why they are in the BCSCG?

UT & OU thought that they could build a conference around 2 powerhouse schools and provide the opportunity for one to make the BCSCG on a regular basis. That didn't work too well for them. The remaining schools (Neb/aTm) didn't like being relegated to 2nd class status so they bolted. That conference is a very good example of why we should stick together in the SEC. The Gump (fans) bother me most because they would probably sacrifice the SEC if it meant that they could be the single dominant force in the SEC. This is a UT (Texas) mentality that has every school in that conference hating UT. The number Gump flame threads (daily) on this board is a good example of which SEC school they hate the most. They fear us because we have won 2 in a row and they know that it is very possible that it will be 4 in a row. The Gump hatred is a compliment!
