Auburn had the dumbest blind luck to wind up in that bowl that year. Emfrickinbarrassing. Good riddance to that coach.

That’s more impressive than 96% of the SEC.

My take is that OU skill positions are ready but whether you call it a reload or rebuild by Big 12 standards it’s a rebuild regardless of years in near future. Until the 2 and 3 deep lines on both sides of the ball fit the size and athleticism of the SEC lines it’s very very difficult to win enough games and the games that count to even get into the playoff conversation in a 4 team playoff format. It’s a given OUs competitive timeline is shorter than TUw for sure. Better coaching, talent, recruiting momentum, etc but will lag in the beginning building the required SEC lines. Not a conference in existence with the number of talented lineman and it’s really what separates the conference from others player wise. If the so called 8 or 12 team playoff structure gets in place at same time OU enters the league, then contender is possible sooner but as it stands not likely. Teams need to dismiss how well they competed historically against top SEC teams in meaningless bowl games. Not the same team when if playing for something that really matters. Welcome to the conference though.

so saying all that, why is it a foregone conclusion that Texas is going to do poorly in the sec when A&M and Missouri were far more mediocre in the big 12 than Texas has been? Do you not see the logical fallacy here?
Those teams improved as they came to the SEC(although Mizzou mostly benefited from down SEC East teams).
So if OU and Texas improve, sure they could do better. But the topic is what your past schedules indicate in terms of SEC success, and Texas is like 2-7 against TCU, and Oklahoma keeps losing to SEC teams in the playoffs.

They butt-fricked bama in the Sugar Bowl too. With your starting QB playing.

Why is BAMA slated #1
Because they consistently win and win in a majority of big games. Makes me sick, but it's a fact.

Over the last 15-20 years we've seen the SEC rise above the rest of the college football world. And it's no surprise given the SEC sits in the hotbed of college football recruiting.
You mean the last 30 years not 15-20. And the hotbed of recruiting is not owned by the majority of the SEC.
But, the majority of the Big 12 is in Texas, a hot bed of recruiting. The majority of the Pac is in California, a hotbed of recruiting. The majority of the ACC is in Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina, the hotbed of recruiting. And, everyone recruits the hotbeds of recruiting.
