I just realized I was in a discussion with an sc fan. What has sc ever done? Honest question.

Btw ou is going to a bowl so get your facts straight. And those other teams you listed are too.

Also I responded to a discussion with facts and opinions, but if you want to take that as whining so be it.

We also didn’t run the big 12 we had a shite decade, ou ran the big 12. You must be listening to alters, trolls, etc because no alum or fan I know thinks we will run the sec or change things without a majority agreeing

Wow. That's impressive. Last I heard, all you need is (checking rule book)...
6 wins to get to a bowl.

And I respoonded with facts, not opinions. In fact, it is a FACT that you're a whiner.

Yes, you got me. It's an opinion. But I'll bet it's not far off the mark.

I like watching SEC games, but many of you a middle school delusional. People say that the SEC eats each other up. That's what conferences do and the Big 10 is probably the biggest example. They play 9 conference games, so half the conference gets an extra loss. If they only played 8, how many teams would be 9-2 or 8-3. They all play another power 4 team and you hardly see FCS teams (like Mercer). I would certainly take Nebraska over Oklahoma any day. Many of these problems would go away if the SEC scheduled 9 conference games and 1 extra power 4 team. the main reason for this easier scheduling is to get more teams bowl eligible and better chance at more playoff spots. I suggest you really take a look at how some of the ranked SEC teams really challenged themselves this year. GA, SC seem to have the hardest. Bama played a tougher conference schedule, but non-conf was easy + Mercer. Texas played nobody, Missouri played a weak schedule and got destroyed twice. Ole Miss had an easy schedule and look who they lost to and they're whining. GA and Bama have been the toast of the town for several years and Ohio St. with recently MI have been in the top tier. Now Oregon is here. If I were the Big 10, I would reschedule down to 8 conference games and add FCS teams to the schedule and watch how many teams get ranked higher than they should. This playing away in the SEC is no harder than the road environments in the Big 10. Make the Std. to play 9 conference games and 1 other Power 4 and watch how the rankings shake out more realistic. Also, if ND wants to stay independent, they should play 10 Power 4 teams and no FCS games. They can't get 1 of the top 4 seeds, so they will always be at a disadvantage in the playoffs.
You're right. Michigan is nobody

This year, you're right. It happens, but Texas' best win is Vandy. I still think Texas should be ranked where their at, but Indiana should be where they're at. They have dominated their until Ohio State. Their blowout of Nebraska was a good win, compared to anything on Texas' schedule. I think both are ranked where they should be.

SEC brothers stay in the truck, Texas will get the gate on this one. Hey ACCFAN, you ignorant nit of a poster. When it comes to pushing your way into a desirable situation deservedly or not, Texas is master. If we desire 4 SEC teams in the CFB playoffs, we'll mastermind it behind the curtain to make it so. Hell, we would even work in the aggy if it would bring them more woe and despair. So go back to your little conference before you fool around and draw to much attention, you're dismissed.



Ahahahahaha, good one…..texas ain’t done shite. Our conference speaks for itself with, or hopefully in the future, without you. Go get beat in the 1st round and get out as usual.

You got me internet tough guy lol. You now know everything about me based on my post on the rant.

Seems I hit a nerve realizing it was an sc fan who has 1 conference title all time and 1 top 6 finish all time.

Sadly for you and your sec Texas hating brethren the humans and computers all favor Texas as a top 5 team so again, you can whine all you want nothing will change that as long as we keep winning.

If the goal was to put the most teams in your conference in the CFP, then with two weeks left in the season, it appears the B1G commissioner was playing chess while Greg Sanke was playing checkers.

B1G did a masterful job of protecting their “heavyweights” through scheduling via the division-less conference model in an 18 team conference. Hell, they even looked the other way for three seasons while Michigan blatantly cheated to regain national prominence after being a doormat since Tom Brady graduated.

They are purchasing players and recruits from SEC schools at will. B1G is definitely leading the way right now.

Let’s see how things shake out in the tournament.

Well, let's do it your way. Your not getting much oxygen with a big SEC dong in your throat blocking your airways. First, you try to slam Oregon and look like an idiot. They have wins against the #2, 12 and 25 teams in the CFP rankings and the Ohio State win right now is the best win in the country. We can go don the SEC list. Texas" best win is Vandy, that's impressive. Tenn. had a good win against a good Bama team and got manhandled by GA and lost to Ark. Besides Bama, their best win is 6-5 and they played UT Chattanooga, Kent St., NC ST and UTEP. Typical SEC schedule and only 8 conf. games against other teams that haven't had a challenging schedule. Mizzou schedule is crappy. UMASS, Murray St. Buffalo- and a few wins against 6-5 teams. Lost 3 ranked games and blown out in 2. 7-3 record a mirage. TA&M lost to ND, SC and a week Auburn team. A few 6-5 wins and LSU. What a gauntlet. Mcneese St and New Mexico, Bowling Green, Ark. How about the cupcake schedule of Ole Miss. Furman, MTSU Wake Forest and GA South. Penn St. schedule has a win and loss against ranked teams. A few teams on their schedule are having down years (USC, Washington, Wisconsin, but 7 of the SEC teams have scheduled ranked weaker and 4 of them are ranked in the CFP poll. Ill. schedule is a little weaker this year, but did play Kansas Penn St and Oregon. 10 pawer 4 teams and no FCS. They are ranked where they should be. Jiz is not brain food. But with your mascot being a cock, what do you expect.

Now, back on track of an honest discussion, if you can have one. I didn't say the SEC isn't one of the strong conferences. The Big 10 and SEC are the 2 best by far. The SEC- has had 2 of the top teams consistently for the last 10 years, but the rest of the league is no stronger than the Big 10, especially with the additions both leagues have now. The last several years, the top of the Big 10 and SEC have been comparable, with Mich and Ohio St and this year with Ohio St and Oregon, plus Penn St. sitting on the cusp. My point is still valid. The SEC leadership is keeping 8 game schedules and most have weak non-conference schedules because it sets them up for more Bowl eligibility (=$). This also improve odds of playoff participation. These are just facts. If all played 9 conference games, 1 extra power 4 and no FCS games, there wouldn't be so many teams jockeying for the last 2 spots in the playoffs with 2-3 losses. With 8 conference games, the SEC is sitting with 8 teams with 8-3 or better. They will have at least 13 and possibly 14 of the 16 teams bowl eligible = more money

I (and a lot of alums) simply find it funny that team sec pumped its chest for years about how great TOP TO BOTTOM the conference is when in reality all the sec whiners are proving that's not the case.



It’s also possible that Texas is better than it’s been in oh say 20 years or so.

The SEC won an ungodly amount of NCs over those same 20 years by multiple programs. Far more than any other conference. We’re in a new era with NIL/portal and it stands to reason that college football as a whole is in transition. Texas teams, Big-10, Oregon and programs with rich alumni will see the benefit.

Looks like Texas is the beneficiary of these changes so far. But one thing about this conference, there are programs that have been at the pinnacle and have proven it multiple times. It’s a matter of time before humbling happens for anybody that doesn’t have Saban.

You don’t respect this conference right now but you will eventually when the Big-10 is arguing to put 1-loss PSU or SMU in over a 2 loss Texas team.

I respect the conference and I have always thought it was the best conference, not by the margin the media or people here might think it is.

Also agree with you iu and psu haven’t played anyone and iu especially has no one to blame but themselves. At least Texas tried to schedule a good non con game in Michigan. We play osu and notre dame coming up so we are not scheduling all cupcakes. An unnecessary risk it seems but one we hope will mitigate any schedule issues in the future.

I get the Texas schedule frustration and logic for sure but anger at Texas is unfounded as we tried to schedule a good non con which does show up in our sos which I believe is around 30-40s where as psu I think is in the 50s and iu in the 100s

Fair enough. Texas deserves credit for handling the teams on their schedule.

Y’all have as good a shot of winning it all as anyone IMO. BUT

I have always like the college football news rankings. Even though I may disagree with their subjective opinion from time to time, I like the fact they rank all 134 teams, and that they don’t simply rank teams based on the number of losses or based primarily on last weeks order


LINK

With that said, CFN has 10 SEC teams in their top 25. Now, lest you accuse them of bias against the Big 10, they have four teams from that league in their top 8.

Vanderbilt, their number 39 team in the country, is their #13 ranked SEC team. There are at least 9 Big 10 teams ranked below 40.

In other words - HALF OF THE BIG TEN IS WORSE THAN VANDERBILT, which is at the 25th percentile of the SEC.

Mississippi State is the only true “automatic W” on SEC schedules this year. Even Kentucky and Auburn have pulled upsets over top 25 teams.
