1-10 against SEC teams with winning SEC records and 13-11 against the SEC overall is good enough to get a raise to $5 mil.

I'm not bragging.
And I didn't start this thread.

I guess I just assumed you were in the perpetual A&M SEC circle jerk. My apologies if you are indeed one of the more realistic ones.

Solid post. I knew the aggies thumped their chests too much but not in my wildest dreams did I imagine it would be that lopsided. Like the OP I don't wanna take too much from Mizzou after winning the east twice. "Down year" or not that's an impressive and unexpected feat.

We had a shitty, injury ravaged year in our first year.

That's the lions share of those losses. And also remember, many of those teams would have had winning records had they not lost to us.

4-4 isn't a winning record.

2013 Vandy, A&M (Ole Miss and Florida would have been 4-4)

2014 Florida (SC, UT and A&M would have been 4-4)

This is always a goofy stat. Someone brought up Bama's wins vs winning teams during last year and the number was low as well. Newsflash: Winning teams don't lose many or they wouldn't be winning teams.

Um Mizzou has lesser talent. Shouldn't they be considered crappy. You act as if Mizzou gets LSU,Bama,Auburn,aTm, UGA,UF,UT type of talent.

But it is your fault that you have lost to all (10 out of 11=all) of the good teams you have played

Yet we still went to Atlanta twice, and won in two very solid bowl games. Sounds like we're off to a damn good start.

You should count teams that finished 4-4. If you lost to them it would have counted as a loss to a winning team and your win is what pushed them down to .500.

Whatever fits the narrative

I guess you should count a win if your team was over .500 as well because the teams below had more chances to beat .500 teams right?

Again, several teams would have been above .500 had they beaten us and several more at .500

Nobody beats a lot of teams with good records. That's why they have good records. It's a stupid narrative.

Also, we are including 2012 in this sample which was a completely injury ravaged year which is in no way indicative of our program.

Show me 1 team that has a winning conference record vs above .500 teams the last 3 years. Just 1

ETA: Just did a really quick check on this. Pretty sure Bama has the best record in such a scenario over the last 3 years. They are 4-4. Again, dumb narrative. They are the only team that does not have a losing record vs teams with a record above .500

And Arkansas is 0-4 against teams that finished the year with a losing record in conference play over the last 2 years. I suppose that makes Arkansas the shittiest of the shitty?!?!
