re: Big 12 Courting Notre Dame - Does the SEC Offer?

I wouldn't argue the cultural aspect - the Big 12 is definitely a "me first screw everyone else" entity, but in terms of academics the SEC is a significantly superior to the Big 12.

I guess. I mean. At the top three we are clearly better.

Vandy > tu.

A&M/Florida> ISU/Baylor


At the bottom they are probably about equal

State/LSU/Arky/Ole Miss ˜ Tech/OSU/KSU/WVU


The real difference is the middle. The other Big 12 schools are TCU/OU/KU. Which Georgia, Bama, Auburn, and Mizzou are all clearly better than.



I assume UT/Kentucky/South Carolina are all shitty, but I'm not completely sure.



Either way it make no difference. We won't play Georgia/Vandy/Florida except every once in a blue moon, and we will play Ole Miss/State/LSU/Arky(which are academic jokes) every single year. Does this affect anything? No. Playing Tech/OSU/OU every year never made my school any less academically superior, in fact it probably helped it stand out to other schools among the other Big 12 schools when my football team wasn't performing well.
