Anybody that wants to use cumlitive bowl records to determine the "best" confernce should really get a reality check. 80% of these kids dont give a rats ass about the game. They are getting their bowl gifts, visiting events and spending more money than most have ever had at one time in their life. Thats a fact. The othee thing that is funny to me is how excited people seem to be when they beat an SEC team. That alone tells you all you need to know. As an example , Ohio State was like 1-14 the last 15 times they have played and SEC team. They win a 1 possesion game last night and that makes everything even ??? They had a month to prepare last night , just like alabama did. They played a great game and won. THey were the better team last night. Today all I hear is how tough its going to be to prepared for Oregon on 12 days to get ready. That is the arguement to be made about the SEC. Its preapring for those teams back to back to back in 6 days. As an example, If ohio st. had to play at auburn next week, then get Georgia at home then travel to play a night game at death valley (LSU) and so on. Ohio State got beat by a terrible Va tech team at home. What does that say ??? When you look at the domination in the national championship games the last decade, the number of players put in NFL, and the Coaches in the conference , as weel as the HUGE home field advanyage in the SEC. There is no doubt who the best conference is. Top to Bottom. The majority of the years. You owe it to yourself to make the round robin trip to see the games of the SEC at each respected home location. Go to see a game at Texas a and M. go to Knoxville . The swamp. Death Valley. Go see Alabama and Auburn at home. Check out the Grove GO to Athens and watch Georgia. AFter that, Id be anxious to see what your opinion of SEC football is.
