It's cute that you try to clarify a difference

Winning the SEC West is harder than winning any other conference...then you must face the east champion

When did I ever say anything was wrong with it?

Of course we would do it.

I remember what gene Stallings said one year when he was told Bama had just won the west " who cares about that?"

I see where it might matter at ole miss but I'd be embarrassed if Bama highlighted division titles.

I believe they should do away with championship games. Winnng your division and conference really doesn't mean as much anymore.

But FRT, when did I ever say I had a problem with rings?

I only pointed out the Florida ones because you were making fun of Georgias.

I see no problem with players getting rings. Who cares? Banners you can make fun of us all day long and I won't argue. I hate the East one in our stadium.

Unless you are Bama or Florida it should be something you savor. Games been played 25 times. Appearances by team:
UF - 12
Bama - 11
UGA - 6
AU - 6
LSU - 5
UT - 5
Ark - 3
Mizzou - 2
MSU - 1
SC - 1

If UGA played in the same division as Saban, you guys would be tickled fricking pink.

They are a good start.

If you aren't regularly winning the division you're in you're probably not winning anything else of more note.

Then why is the score of the bowl game on the side of the ring?

It is one goal of 4.

1. Win division
2. win SECCG
3. Make playoff
4. Win NC

1 and 2 are entirely in your control.

1 and 2 give you a better shot at 3 and 4

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”

Doesn't Ole Miss have a banner at VHS proclaiming a Western Division championship?...thought I'd seen one.
