He has only addressed me once. You have your posters mixed up.
I have 3 or 4 posts that have yet to be addressed so I keep reposting them for him.
Responding to someone else, or dishing out a strawman argument isn't responding to me.

Take a crack at any of them but don't respond like a woman with words I never used, comments I never made, or some strawman argument about how LSU has greener grass.
The bottom line is the SWC wasn't elite. It was average most years, great several.

You made invalid assertions, or maybe just assertions that left out credible facts pertaining to the debate, and I challenged you to back it up.
Don't take it personal.
Arkansas last 30 years in the SWC saw 5 schools with 35 TOP 10 finishes.
It wasn't elite if that is what you are waiting for. But it damn sure wasn't the Sun Belt either.
There is this
quote:
In the 60's, the SWC had a team in the top 10 in every season but 1967, with 3 different schools accounting for 14 top ten finishes in 10 years (Arkansas - 7, texass - 6, SMU - 1). Three national championships were won by the conference (Arkansas - 1964, texass - 1963, texass - 1969).
In the 70's, the SWC had a team in the top 10 every season but 1971 and 1974, with 5 different schools accounting for 14 top ten finishes in 10 years (texass - 5, Houston - 4, Arkansas - 3, texass tech - 1, texass A&M - 1).
In the first half of the 80's, before violations and investigations castrated the league, the SWC had a team in the top ten every year but 1980, with 4 different schools accounting for 7 top ten finishes in 6 years (SMU - 3, texass - 2, Arkansas - 1, texass A&M - 1).
The champion of the SWC would play in the Cotton Bowl each year. The winner of the Cotton Bowl would be named national champion by at least one organization 10 times from 1960-1979. The Cotton Bowl, the home of the SWC Champion, was unquestionably one of the premier bowl games in America during it's heydey.

I'll give you that most of the time the SEC and Big 10 were producing a better product.
But to trash the SWC the way you do is intellectually dishonest, IMO.

In other words, I don't think you are an idiot. You seem the opposite.
But I believe your opinion of the SWC of old is off.

Arkansas should have tried harder and sooner to get into the Big 8. Arkansas wasn't that great, but they were good enough to make the Big 8 better, and better than the SWC. The SWC would have sucked assballs if they were purely an 8-team Texas league.
Oh wait...it did...when Arkansas did finally leave it.
frick the SWC.

NOT ONLY THAT, but if Arkansas had joined the Big 8, making the Big 9, it would have been VERY interesting to see the college football landscape today. Surely the Big 9 would have tried to expand to 12. Texas? A&M? Utah/BYU?

LIKE I SAID:
LSU is becoming less and less competitive under Miles. Like it or not, you don't scare folks anymore. You're little more than a #15 -#20 team sitting at #7 based on garbage preseason polls.
You have all the tools to compete for a BCS bowl every year but you are slowly becoming just another tough SEC opponent, not the cream of the crop.

LSU is a 10 in my book. But they have a 7 as an HC and every year they become a less daunting opponent and less competitive for a BCSNC.
Why is this? USC is still competing. OSU is still in the mix. Texas is. Florida is.
The answer is that LSU is a Ferrari being driven by a go-kart pro.
I vote that LSU keeps him for years to come

I'm not sure how anyone could deny Arkansas has it's own football tradition.I'm also not sure how anyone can pretend that tradition is among the elite. We DID finish in the AP top 5 6 years in a row, but in that time span we only won 2 bowl games and one contested national championship, so both arguments are moot. We were a very good team in the 60's and 70's but a non factor in the other decades.

These guys think they are some kind of traditional power in college football. Bama fans may be wacko themselves, but at least their school really is one of the historical elite.
If you think that then you are are the wacko....
