re: How many seasons until aTm & Mizzou's OOC losses count against the SEC's rep?

Um....yeah. Obvious troll is obvious.

The reason the SEC has its reputation is not because of the losses racked up by Vandy, Ole Miss, or Arkie in OOC. The SEC has WON the BCS NC 6 years in a row. A&M and Mizzou could both come in and be door mats, and as long as LSU, Bama, Georgia, Florida, or Tennessee continue to have NFL rosters top to bottom, the SEC will keep its prestige.

Now, with regard to the Pigs at Kyle, I think we have as good a chance to win as last year (should have won...by a lot). The game was in question until the last few minutes, at a neutral venue. Yeah, new staff, new QB, etc., but the core of the team is still here.

I give A&M an advantage because of the venue, but Arkie an equalizing advantage with Tyler Wilson (who is a badass and a future starting NFL QB). It will probably play out just like last year's game. Lots of points, down to the last possession.
