I'm an OU fan first and by virtue of having to play a killer SEC schedule for the third year in a row, I readily admit that the SEC is, from top to bottom, the toughest conference in the country.


The SEC is the toughest from top to bottom? I think you'd better check the head to head results against the Big Ten in the last two years. As Curt Cignetti said, the Big Ten is not the result of a hype machine.

Coaches have no clue how good teams that they don't play are... They never watch them play games.

Coaches Poll has always been dumb to me.

They aren't the result of tremendous schedule attrition either. In the next 5 years, Indy doesn't schedule even one Power 4 OOC team. That's not a glitch; that's hiding.

You do not have depth at all....the frick? You are very top heavy, and then it is a bunch of very crappy teams.

A&M, Tennessee, and Missouri getting way too much love. The rest looks reasonable.

The safest investment you can make is to get as liquid as possible and bet everything you can that Texas A&M will finish outside of the Top 10.


This is the 16th time in school history they will have been pre-season top 10.

Only 4 times have they also finished the season top 10 (2x Bear Bryant, 2x RC Slocum)

Well, some early losses for us should move whoever we play up in the polls.

No way we finish in the top 10.

Preseason polls are crapshoots.

They don’t make any sense… and they aren’t supposed to.

Not sure I believe your post. Cutting out SEC voters moves a team from 17th to number 1? Something there just does not jive.
