No. The sec championship was. As it has been many times before but sadly no longer will be worth playing in.

Washington is by no means the best team but their passing attack might make them the worst matchup for Texas due to your secondary.

Michigan is the best matchup for Texas because your front 7 is impossible to run on and that’s their entire offense.


Yeah I agree I think we have a more talented team but they are a tough matchup for us

Not always. Clemson had some great teams, as does Texas this year, but Bama vs Texas in 2024 is really just a de facto SEC CG preview

No.

That was UGA-Bama.

Texas has a shot though.

No. Texas will win it all. They will beat Alabama.
Hook 'em, I guess...

People are pumping up Bama way too much, to be honest for once the Gumps are the more reasonable ones, most of them know their chances suck. Let’s keep in mind, the things standing in the way between Bama in the playoffs or staying home are 2 miracles against juggernaut Auburn and a season ending injury to Travis.

Not this year. I don’t think the SEC is as strong as it has been in years past. We are about like we were when tOSU won it.

Also, it’s actually just Alabama that’s down. Georgia is not as good as they were last year. Most of the other SEC teams are about like they always are.

I think Michigan, Washington and Texas all have football teams this year that are about like Alabama and Georgia. When Alabama is at full strength under Saban none of those teams can stay with us. Our biggest concern is coaching turnover.

That’s not how it works in big boy sports. Get your participation trophy elsewhere.

I viewed Albama vs Georgia as the defacto National Championship game

Michigan has cheaters, booger pickers, and lame arse schedulers.

I'm quite looking forward to your backhanded compliments/excuses when Texas wins.

No you’re just missing his point the whole time if you think that’s a flip flop

No.

Michigan's a soft team.

Alabama 28-17.

You call that a major
Accomplishment? Everyone knows that conference is weak.
Especially on Defense.

Most people I know viewed the SEC championship as the national title. This is just consolation prizes
