The SEC leads the Big 12 all-time. It's not even close.

Look at the matchups. West Virginia was much higher in the Big 12 echelon than Tennessee was within the SEC. Ole Miss (1-7 in SEC play) beat Texas Tech (3-6 in Big Twelve play) by 20 points in Houston. That tells you all you need to know about which conference is deeper.

You're right. Thanks to aggy going 0-7 against the SEC while in the Big 12... some things never change.

Ah, that makes sense. You were including the bowl games.

Keep forgetting WVU is in the B12 too. Seems they should have been ACC.

I thought you guys and the Rebs had a home and home since 2012. Am I losing my marbles?

Well, to be fair you guys were both in the SIAA but Vanderbilt had your number back then, as did Sewanee. Vols were 3rd in the state behind those two in the early days.

Thanks to The University of Texas, the Big 12 has about a 130-game win boost thanks to the Longhorns' all-time record against aggy and Arkansas.

So maybe you should recalculate?

It's almost as ridiculous as the SEC's 8 conference game schedule.

It may be 20 years before I see Alabama play an away game in Gainesville or Athens. Just plain ridiculous.

Speaking of Florida, do those dudes ever play football anywhere north or Georgia or west of the Mississippi river?

When the states of Texas and Oklahoma have 2 National Championship programs (fsu and 'canes) that are rivals in your state let us know.
I rather play them than any other.
Besides, y'all should petition your AD to play a game in Gainesville.

Would love to see the Gators play in 20 degree weather with 35 mph winds, somewhere outside of the south and their comfort zone.

Nope. Only the games that involve teams in the SEC vs teams in the Big Twelve while they are members of those respective conferences. Texas beating Arkansas in 1969 does not count in the series. SEC leads 92-75 all-time. This year's Ole Miss (1-7 in SEC play) beat Texas Tech Tech (3-6 in Big Twelve play) by 20 points. That shows that the SEC is deeper....AGAIN !! Deal with it just like you had to deal with all those Cotton Bowls you lost back in the 2000's.

Norman,Oklahoma has a bunch of those kinds of days during September, don't they? Are Sooner fans still upset about losing national title chances against LSU,Florida, and Georgia?

It's hot in September, and road games in Kansas-Iowa-West Virginia during November are pretty doggone cold.

LSU hasn't beaten Alabama in who knows how long, you consistently fail to win the SEC. Alabama owns LSU, and Birmingham calls the shots. It seems you're the salty one.

Ok, fair enough.

But SEC leads 92-75 all-time? You are obviously counting days when Big 12 teams were members of the Big 8, so this is still invalid (even though I'm sure your conference's lead would persist nonetheless).

You still butthurt about getting stomped 35-20 by TEXAS in the 2003 Cotton Bowl, baw?

The Citadel was able to score a touchdown in Tuscaloosa, LSU couldn't even score 3 points in Baton Rouge. Pretty sad.

Look I am all for giving the Sooners credit for making good OOC schedules year after year. Sadly this is not true for members of your current conference and many B1G and PAC schools. ACC and SEC have about 8 games that are played annually or every other year on average to make them serious long running series.

PAC has non
B1G and B12 have only Iowa vs Iowa State

I would rather see the opposite happen. Go to 8 conference games and pick up a non conference long term rival.

Texas plays Texas A&M
Oklahoma plays Nebraska
Kansas plays Missouri


Colorado could play Minnesota (share cold weather)
Kansas State could play Northwestern (both Wildcats)
OK State and Texas Tech could play the AZ schools
