y'all mighty worried about the SEC it appears... the SEC will work it's way out, but it WILL deliver a prospect to the tourney... so- hope they lose?
y'all can say what you will, and much of it is solid argument, but the SEC enjoys a lot of credit in development and advancement in this game- and if you want to split hairs it's Tom Osborne's fault damn near exclusively in my opinion. because of SEC dominance, early in the century, the rest of the CFB world had to alter their way of doing business- and from it you get ridiculous speed in spreads from Ohio State, high pressure D's in PSU, lean-on-you-for-four-quarters-threatening-TD-play-every-down from the likes of Wiscy, ect... There was a brief moment the SEC had the greatest collection of top tier coaches ever assembled in one conference, and it showed... those coaches and the minions of those coaches are spreading, and along with it threats of encroachment if not out right challenging the throne... Remove Bama, or make them a middle of the pack team, and the SEC isn't hardly anything more than a BigXII or PAC....
^but ALL of that is leaning on tradition, and a tradition which is written by the victor- and has little to do with the current landscape other than folks can't let it go. again I say, the SEC will work itself out and possibly out of the national picture......... consider the possibility Bama loses to Auburn after beating LSU, and UGA beats UK but loses to GT before beating Bama- poof- the SEC ain't got a grain of sand to stand on that won't roll out from underneath them, and tOSU, PSU, WVU, Okey, or even UCF are in.
