Not really. I know this thought is perpetuated here but it's simply not accurate. Usually said by fans to make themselves feel better about finishing poorly because the division is so "strong".

Spoken like a Missouri fan.

Everyone says that because a) there is no obviously outstanding team this year and b) there are a lot of very good teams. The SEC-W has been a toss-up between several teams, many times since 2010, but this may be the first where every team seems to have a legit shot.

In 2010, Alabama was the defending national champs and preseason favorite to repeat, but they finished 3rd and 4 SEC-W teams finished with 10+ wins. You just haven't been around long enough to know better.
