My ranking them is based on now not end of the season. Give them a chance, they could upset a few teams.
Ok.
My original point was and is the West always has a "bunch" of teams ranked high in the early going and the chest thumping gets loud lording over the East and the end result usually comes down to a close to .500 split in the W/L column between the East and West with West teams falling out and East teams rising into their positions in the rankings.
The West gets a lot of hype and the feeds on itself but the results often tell a slightly different tale one the games were all played.

I'd like to know the last time east and west split at .500 in inter-divisional games.
ETA: Including SECCGs, since 2009...
2014: West 2, East 0
2013: West 9, East 6
2012: West 8, East 7
2011: West 13, East 6
2010: West 16, East 3
2009: West 12, East 7
So, once in the last five years, the two divisions finished at .500 in the regular season. Hardly what I would call "usually".
