INSECURITY: SUPPORT OUR MAJOR INVESTIGATION OF ELITISM IN COLLEGE SPORTS
quote:
When LSU snapped UCF’s 25 game winning streak, something strange happened: the SEC elite acted like LSU won by a blowout, even though the Knights lost by just one touchdown — using their backup quarterback.
And when Knight News asked if LSU’s game against UCF was one of the “more physical” it played this season, LSU’s athletic director literally laughed out loud.
quote:
LSU’s players scoffed at the question, claiming the Knights could not hang in the SEC — even though UCF scored more points on LSU than any other team this season. SEC fans followed suit on social media, unleashing toxic tweets.
Knight News’s readers believe the bizarre reaction by LSU players — and SEC fans at large — ended up Exposing InSECurity of those worried that UCF may prove membership in the SEC does not automatically make a team better than teams left outside the elite club. And that’s what we’re calling our special, year-long investigation we’re launching today: Exposing InSecurity.
So, yeah. They've started a GoFundMe.

Why don't they ever mention our defense playing without 9 starters?

So, they play Bo Diddlie Tech all year and bitch about getting no respect when they lose to the only real team the face?

Because we're SEC so of course we're supposed to win the game
Don't you just feel so bad they didn't have their QB? Bless their hearts.

I love how no UCF article ever mentions we played without 9 fuggin defensive starters and had a WR at corner back mid game.

This type of investigative journalism takes time and costs money. We had to hire a lawyer to negotiate with UF to release all the emails we requested — and UF says it only released them as a courtesy, claiming it doesn’t have to.
Exposing InSECurity will pick up where our investigation of UF left off. We will start by seeking out email evidence from every single SEC school. And we will make the evidence we uncover public. We believe this will help inform the national debate and the search for solutions — and help bring a fair resolution — when the public takes action, be that inside or outside of the courtroom.
They're coming hard for Florida and the rest of the SEC is now on notice.

Did I miss the fork in the timeline where Marty McFly somehow ensured that the TAMU game never happened?

I love how they use the phrase "SEC elite". I guess they think Birmingham is the home of the Illuminati.

Nothing elite about Birmingham, I assure you.
Does anybody know if anybody else from the SEC has a member on the board this(2018-2019) year?

Bonus points for Joe if he did so to the tune of Tiger Rag.

OK, just read the first of the link he provided. Here is the skinny
quote:
Knight News uncovered “prime evidence” in a potential anti-trust case that could help end the College Football Playoff bias, according to an attorney who has successfully litigated in the Supreme Court. This evidence was found in University of Florida athletic director Scott Stricklin’s emails.
In these emails, exchanges between University of Missouri’s athletic director and UF’s athletic director, who happen to both be in the SEC, show Mizzou’s AD lobbying with UF’s AD – who sits on the playoff committee – for a better bowl game. The emails go back and forth between the two, with UF’s AD even explaining how he likes Mizzou and their football team and will do his “best” to make Mizzou’s case to the committee.

We wanted to play them, there was just not feasible reason to from our end on their terms.
UCF needs Florida more than Florida needs them.

The goal of Exposing InSECurity is to shine a spotlight on elitism that unfairly puts a program’s pedigree over performance on the field. We’ll do this by obtaining emails through freedom of information laws, and by asking tough questions of the controversial College Football Playoff corporation execs and others, along with other journalistic tactics. We will not be ignored. And we won’t back down.

Oh I agree. I just enjoy the wailing and pearl clutching.
It's like election day all over again.
