Urban Meyer Declares The SEC's Reign Over College Football Is 'Over'

by Larry Leo

January 6, 202527 Comments

On his Triple Option podcast, Urban Meyer wondered if the SEC is no longer head and shoulders above the sport's competition. He felt Notre Dame and Ohio State had "much better athletes" than Georgia and Tennessee in those CFP matchups. He made this declaration...

quote:
"Is the SEC's dominance over? It is. It's over," Meyer said. "Now, next year's another year. But for two years, it's over."

Correct. The schools with the most money are now the dominant schools.

Texas A&M has more money than any Big 10 school. Both in endowment and generally. This is a fact. The Big 10 is having a good year.

No it's not, everybody outside the SEC is praying it's over

Diluting the SEC’s talent pool and reducing its
numbers in the playoff pool to achieve parity in CFB are what NIL, the portal, and playoff expansion are about.

Had Georgia it’s starting QB, ironically, it could still have been possible for two SEC teams playing in the Championship with great gnashing of teeth. Texas still has a shot. It’s all about paying players now. Like it or not.

POTUS2024•11 months

Partially right. I still think Georgia wins it last year if they get in the playoff. This year, SEC is not the best. I think NIL has produced roster dilution in the SEC and the dominance could be over.

Kinda like his career.

friendlyobservation•11 months

People keep latching on to SEC dominance but the reality is it's over because the SEC can't hoard talent anymore. It's getting plucked to other conferences now. Bama/Georgia/etc. can't hold all the talent all the love is getting spread around now. Massive parity in NCAA. This is better for the sport. More exciting because anyone can win it now.

PuertoRicanBlaze•11 months

Wrong. Now it's the rich schools hoarding all the talent while the Arkansas and Mississippi States of the world are getting the scraps.

friendlyobservation•11 months

Which rich schools do you see dominating the sport right now? I hate to break it to you but the schools with money already were dominating the sport. Did you ever see the smaller universities make it to the championship? No. The difference now is because the depth is spread around you're seeing teams like Arizona State rise up. Who do you consider a rich school right now in the playoffs outside Texas? I think you have it backwards. No conference has dominance right now because nobody can hold depth. It's that simple.

Here is a fast fact.. I don’t care if their dominance is over. All I care about is 1 team in the SEC. The rest can lose as far as I am concerned. Let’s geaux.
