The SWC in 1992 & 1993 was one of the worst football conferences in the nation.
Texas, Texas A&M, Houston, Rice, SMU, Texas Tech, Baylor and TCU
Texas went 11-10-1 in 92 & 93
TCU was 6-15-1
Texas Tech was 11-12
Rice was 12-10
SMU was 7-13-2
Houston was 5-16-1
Baylor was 12-11
Superb Accomplishments

I sure won't consider the SWC was a "much stronger conference" during that time period considering the conference was under intense scrutiny by the NCAA, and was on it's downward spiral into oblivion. Hell, I remember in 1992 aTm was heading into the bowl season undefeated and still behind a 1 loss FSU team. They then got curb stomped by ND.
Now the Big 12 was pretty strong in the mid-90s, but not the SWC.

If the Big XII was strong the SWC wasn't around.

The premise was the Ole Miss fan talking about their 6 conference championships and that period
One was a 7 win team, 2 had 2 losses
It wasn't a comparison of SWC vs sec overall or during any particular period

The SWC from 1990-demise was one of the worst conferences in America.
You bragged about winning the league in those years and stated it was a much tougher conference.
For that, everyone is laughing at you, and deservedly so.

LSU used to get Sugar Bowl bids for the hell of it. Most of LSU's appearances in the Sugar Bowl they were 4th, 5th or even 6th in the SEC, but they still would get bids. I don't think it's a prestigious bowl at all.

Of the 7 conference championship stretch A&M had that you mentioned:
4 teams had 2 losses
2 teams had 3 losses
1 team had 1 loss
What exactly are you trying to prove?

You are completely failing to grasp the context

No I'm not
You were spewing crap and got called on it.
Claiming the SWC was tougher than any conference from 1990 till it's demise is pure garbage.
The only thing the SWC had going for it from 1990-1991 was Arkansas basketball and Arkansas track.
Then Arkansas bolted for the SEC and the SWC as a whole, was weaker across the board. No nationally relevant programs in any form of athletics.

You claims that ole miss's 6 conference titles in 15 years was much more significant than any stretch in A&M's history
it's fair to argue that 7 in 13 years by A&M is comparable if not better.
Both are good stretches for both programs
Too many are trying to create an argument where there is none

Here's the average final ranking of each program during the championship seasons of each stretch:
A&M 10th
Ole Miss 7th

40-50 years ago the pecking order in prestige was Rose, Orange, Cotton and Sugar.
Rose, then Sugar and Orange, then Cotton.
Fiesta wasn't anything until the BCS era. The Gator, Sun, and Citrus were a better bowl

LSU fans point out that Ole Miss has always been historically a bad team.
Wrong.

So it got me wondering if maybe the Sugar Bowl was a much less significant bowl game pre mid 60's?
When there are only 4 major bowls, how much less significant could it have possibly been?
Some years the Sugar Bowl had the matchup with the highest ranked 2 teams, sometimes it didn't.
Generally the Rose has been the biggest, then in any given year, Sugar, Orange, Cotton, in no particular order. If you don't know this, you're a complete moron.
You're trolling is wearisome - and that's giving you the benefit of the doubt.

The OP was answered; it was a more regional bowl and less significant.
Thanks to all the more knowledgable SEC fans for the answer

Uses Southwest Conference Championships over National Championships. Aggy logic.
