Why do I get the impression from your post that you have a “them” attitude towards the SEC instead of a “we” perspective?

They did have 2 SEC matchup, so 2 were guaranteed to lose.

With that, we have the same results essentially the B1G has as a conference.

You guys seem to struggle with discrete math around here a lot

It’s strange that so many here root for college teams yet seem to have never taken any college level courses

I carry that same sentiment about them and Oklahoma. THEM can kick rocks. They ain’t SEC.

It’s why If I had to choose…I would rather you guys have success over UT. Their arrogance is insufferable.

Another way to put that: the only SEC win vs. a non-SEC opponent was Ole Miss over Tulane... who funny enough is ex-SEC

Well two SEC teams were eliminated by other SEC schools.


The only SEC loss that I would say was bad for the SEC as a whole is Alabama. That was an embarrassment.

I love SEC football and it’s a hell of a good conference. The SEC will be fine.

But, if anything, maybe these past three years are an abrupt reminder / wake-up to those who may be thoroughly immersed in the SEC-only bubble that there’s some pretty good football being played elsewhere in the country too.

And 2 were guaranteed a win. The SEC's only CFP wins v. majors were SEC v. SEC matchups.

I have a great win-win proposal: Texas can go to the B1G to feed their ego and the SEC can be rid of the Horns.

With just seconds on the clock A&M was a 5 yard line pass away from tying (and likely beating) the eventual champions. Didn’t win it all, but don’t see how that contributes to a poor performance by the conference.

They didn't do any worse than any other conference.

It’s disappointing because I thought tbrand was a decent poster.

Excellent posters don’t call themselves excellent posters.
