Yes. We already know the SEC is Bama and the 13 dwarves. Before bowl season, Georgia was just the tallest dwarf. Then they ran into mean old Texas.


How many SEC teams have won national championships since Texas or Oklahoma?

Why is it still called the Big 12?

Oklahoma state may have been unpredictable, but they also just beat one of the SEC’s premier teams this year


Premier team? When did Missouri become a premier team? They were 8-5

When we played them dude. It’s not our faults certain teams don’t live up to expectations. But the facts are we beat #22USC, #17TCU, #7OU, #16ISU and #5UGA. Those things all happened.

Also I misspoke, WVU was 13 when we played them, were 6 the week before but they went and shite the bed against Iowa state (who we stomped)

There's no way either UT (Tennessee) or t.u. make the playoff next year.

Well actually, mizzou has the best quarterbacking prospect the league has to offer and a pretty raunchy D, and was an 8 win team. I would say probably the 3rd best SEC east team which puts them in the upper eschelon. And they’ll probably win 8-9 regular season games next year too with Kelly B

There is this thing called conference standings that is easily referenced.

Ok where they're ranked during the season doesn't mean shite. USC finished with a losing record. TCU finished 7-6 and unranked. Iowa state is ranked 25.

That's as stupid as LSU fans claiming they beat a top 10 Miami and auburn. Or us claiming we beat #3 florida state last year when they finished unranked.

I only see 4 rank teams that you have beaten. WV and Iowa State who will likely drop out of the final rankings, Oklahoma and Georgia. Where is the 5th win?

Additionally, A loss is a loss regardless of when it occurred and Herman had all summer to prepare for that horrible Maryland team.

You make exceptions for Texas' schedule and disregard the same argument that could be applied to the SEC teams. Again, you have a dizzying intellect

Don't forget that Maryland didn't have a coach or their starting QB when they won.

Lsu must be a beast considering they beat 4 or 5 top ten teams. It's not our fault the teams didnt live up to their expectations right? Using your logic, LSU has the most impressive resume in the country.

Let’s recap the OP.

The Big 12 is better at the top because one team of the top 4 won their bowl game. Oklahoma, Iowa State and West Virginia all lost.

The SEC is weaker at the top, because one team of the top 6 lost their bowl game. Bama, Florida, LSU, A&M, and Kentucky all won.

It would be hard to post something dumber than that if he was actually trying to post something dumb.

- Kentucky definitely better than Missouri - watch some football
- Mizzou lost to SC and numerous other teams.
- At the very least you could argue that Mizzou MIGHT be the fourth best in the East this year. But that is only the East.
- Mizzou would at best be the middle of the road for the SEC this year, so OkSU's win is embarrassing, but not that big of a deal

- Texas gets credit for beating a UGA team that didn't want to be there
- OU was never in the Bama game, no matter what you choose to believe. After going up 28 pts, they just went into cruise control

So, the BDF isn't all that great honestly

There's a good chance 4 SEC teams will finish in the top 10. So...nope.

If y’all want to continuously say that bama ran train through Oklahoma when they won by only 11 points, then at least concede that Texas didn’t just beat Georgia— we whooped their asses up and down the field and we’re up 3 touchdowns going into the fourth. Yet I’ve seen multiple people use arguments of “yea and Georgia outscored Texas after the first quarter” and “well LSU beat Georgia way worse than Texas did” when in reality it was 2 garbage time TDs that Georgia was given in a game that read way more like that LSU game than the final scores indicate
