If I’m not mistaken it’s 30-28 ACC in the CFB era.

College football has been around for over 100 years.

Are you talking about the Playoff era....the BCS era?

I am guessing you mean the CFB Playoff era?

The last 10 years it’s like 51-42 in favor of the SEC. Hardly a dominating record.

Nobody said the ACC has always been bad. But honestly...after Clemson, who do you think would match up well against Georgia, LSU or Auburn? For that matter A&M and Florida?

The ACC has pretty much been FSU and Clemson for quite awhile now and nobody else.

Nobody in the ACC or any other conference is claiming it’s “a grind” for them week in week out.



Nor should they, but it is all relative, isn't it? Put anybody else in the SEC, and compared to what they normally play it would be a lot tougher. Why is this so hard to understand?

The conference is clearly filled with a bunch of shite teams outside of Alabama, LSU, Auburn, and Georgia.


Note that the two teams they're borrowing to boost their SOS didn't make his list.

Clemson's schedule even crappier now apparently

So you want to pump up Auburn, but not Oregon, who Auburn struggled to beat?


First, frick you for making me defend Auburn.

Secondly, AU had a true freshman QB in his first start and beat Oregon on a neutral field. They'll get better over the course of the year, but Oregon isn't top 10 caliber. AU may very well be by year's end.

3 of those SEC teams plays 2 of the other every year and Auburn plays all 3 of the other every year.

The sec grind came from the bottom being good enough to upset the top in the 90's and was magnified with the multiple NCs in a row in the 2000. Now the talent gap is wearing down the bottom teams and the top ones aren't as tested as before. It's only going to get worse.

UTk or MSU has more NFL talent than an entire division in the ACC. You have to beat the physically gifted week in and week out in the SEC.


Yall lost to UCF in a bowl game tho.

Wake Forest.


With an interim head coach and arguably A&M’s worst team since being in the sec.

How’d they do against NC State last season?
