SEC SPEED. Where is it most apparent?

The lines, especially defensive. Every major school in the country has fast skill players. That's not the difference.

The freaks on the defensive line are going to be the hardest thing to adjust to for both teams. Your skill players are fine, but your O-line better eat their weight in Wheaties because shite is about to get real.

When a DE from Auburn chases down a RB from Bama on a 40 yard run, that's SEC speed. When Lamichael James is bottled up by freshman and Nick Fairleys fat arse, that's SEC speed. When you see LSU's defense murder you, that's SEC speed. Bama's defense isn't particularly fast but they hit a way only a few teams can match and they are strong as hell.

Oregon fans thought they had speed all over the place too.

This from Chip Kelly after the LSU-Oregon game:

"They've got a different athlete running around there right now...looking at their d-line, standing next to them walking off the field, they don't look like a lot of the guys we see."

I am lead to believe that the SEC SPEED argument is most relevant on the lines.

Contrare my friend. Speed is a contest everywhere on the field. It is the contest to get through the hole before the hole closes. It is the rush to get the corner before the curtain drops on the ends. It is QB's peeing in their pants holding the ball waiting on receivers to clear while expecting to be tomahwked from behind.

Mostly it is just the matchup of who can react faster to his opponents moves. The SEC upper half is usually eat up with speed. This combined with huge arse-whipping power in conjunction with speed yields championships.

Dline. Every BCS school has fast skill players. Come on, this is common knowledge.

vs. Mizzou & A&M

In my opinion what will create the biggest problem for Mizz and TAM is the weekly grind of the SEC. A lot of teams are good but the SEC has a lot of good teams.

I think Mizz or TAM are good teams with talent and can beat anybody in the SEC on the right weekend but can they do it again next weekend and the next and the next and the next. I think the weekly grind is the difficulty of the SEC.
