Only weigh in if your team is a member of the big 5. Obviously if you're arkansas, miss state, and missouri division championships are all you have. Every program should forever remember national championship teams, sec championship teams, and now cfp teams, but what about teams that only win the division?

Winning the division should be the bare minimum expectations for 6-7 schools in this conference.

I'm glad we have at least one

But it's not something I go around bragging about to anyone.

Ring-worthy may be too far.

I don't believe Nick Saban shows his West Division rings to recruits as a big item.....then again maybe he does....

Is making the playoff something to be proud of or must you win it????

I mean you don't even have to win the division to win the NC, so It's really not that important.

I mean, it's one of the reasons Ohio state got in the playoff over Bama - displacedcuckeye

I'd be quietly embarrassed to be a goofy fricking UGA fan right now. Ya'll are just so "happy to be there" it is really cringey

It means you had a good season, but came up short.

I think making the CFP is this same, if dont win it all.

That's a good point too. I mean, only two SEC schools have done it so far. Pretry exclusive I guess. On the other hand, every team has in the sec has won the division except for kentucky, vandy, texas am and ole miss.

Hasn't your football program been completely irrelevant after WW2? Lol at an AM fan calling Georgia fans goofy.

If you've never won the whole thing then what else do you have to be proud of??

For the conf major programs it's just a part of the end goal. I start the season just focusing on wanting to make it to ATL.

CFP has to many outside factors to worry about it early on. Unless going undefeated were my expectations which is unrealistic.

I didn’t know division champ was even a thing. I would just say “we won the west” I would never say “we were west champs”

That was part of the bowl game gift since Outback Bowl is on the side. Decent attempt though.
