West teams won out of conference games against decent to good teams. East teams did not.
Its not about East vs West. I know the East is not very good from top to bottom. Not the argument I made. Why is that the focus of your reply?

Not to mention ALL the computer rankings say the same thing about the SEC teams. So, maybe all of them are wrong and somehow the SEC West found a formula to rig the system. Or maybe the division is just really solid.
The computer rankings are predicated on preseason evaluations. Its always interesting when people use "but computers" and fail to acknowledge the issue of preseason evaluations and their long term effect on the rankings as the season progresses.
Its cool, people can have different opinions on this stuff. The discussion makes it all fun and worth while.

The preseason rankings are phased out week by week and are completely gone by Week 6. At this point all the computers are using are 2014 results and data.
I'm certainly not claiming the computers to be the end all be all, but I do find it interesting that all of them that are independent of eachother seem to be coming back with pretty consistent results when it comes to the SEC.
