The SEC bitching is cute.

The SEC has more influence on the playoff format than anyone. 
The SEC gets the benefit of perceived most strength of any conference.  (Especially Bama)

Yeah I don’t want to hear it.

Alabama defense gave up 40 to fucking Vanderbilt and lost and they got blown the fuck out and only scored 3 points and lost by 21 points to a 6-6 Oklahoma team that had one of the worst offenses in the country.

they just win one of those games they are in. Tennessee is a really good team and it was a 7 point game, ok that’s not a bad loss. Those other 2 losses? Pathetic.

At some point the regular season has to you know, matter.
Just a fun lil meme I whipped up.

I do wish the Big Ten could have experienced the absurd, legendary peak of the SEC from 2006-2022 and see how silly these articulations like "perceived" are. 

Imagine the Big Ten led the nation in recruiting EVERY YEAR and led the nation in draft picks and high draft picks EVERY YEAR and won the national championship almost EVERY YEAR, with 5 different schools having won it in that 16 year span.  Then imagine being anything but total in your confidence in the Big Ten's dominance.

You guys are utterly incapable of putting yourselves in the shoes of a fan of an SEC team, probably because what the SEC has done is basically impossible.  Yet it's happened. 

I loved the point made during one of the CCGs.....something like the 10th-best team in the Big Ten or anyone besides the SEC has like 5 elite recruits on the entire squad (5*+4*), while the 10th-best team in the SEC has 40. 
The talent isn't equal.  it's not a perceived strength, it's real.

Perceived or real 

Whining and bitching by the big bad SEC is silly 

Perhaps the SEC AD should throw his weight around better.   Quit slacking

Well I flipped over because it got close only to see Texas score a long touchdown. So flipping back I go.

Pretend this:
National Champions
2006 - Iowa
2007 - Michigan
2008 - Iowa
2009 - Ohio St
2010 - Wisconsin
2011 - Ohio St
2012 - Ohio St
2013 - FSU
2014 - Alabama
2015 - Ohio St
2016 - Clemson
2017 - Ohio St
2018 - Clemson
2019 - Michigan
2020 - Ohio St
2021 - Penn St
2022 - Penn St
.
And then tell me ALL OF YOU wouldn't be laughing at any quibbling about the Big Ten getting the benefit of the doubt on anything and everything.  Tell me.  Lie to me. 

Is it that hard to trade places for a moment?  You're adults, right?  I mean shit.

And most of the championships were one by two guys….Nick Saban and Urban Meyer. Nick is the greatest college coach ever. Urban is not far behind, you can’t tell me he’s not top 3-5. 

It’s not like entire SEC was winning titles. Kirby has built a monster these past 4-5 years but before that Jawjaw wasn’t doing shit. 

Auburn and LSU both won their latest titles with oh the greatest seasons ever by QB’s in college.

Well, they can't all win the NC the same years, can they?  Florida multiple, LSU multiple, Bama a ton, LSU multiple......what more do you want?!?! 


And from Big Ten fans of all people.....Ohio State and the 10, 13, 17? dwarfs

don't forget UGA multiple. Kirby has built a monster now. 

Florida multiple, one guy. Bama multiple, one guy. LSU with Les Miles was a little bit of an anomaly- 2007 was a weird year-meanwhile 2010 Auburn & 2019 LSU had maybe the #1 and #2 greatest seasons ever by a QB and both those QB's were #1 overall NFL draft picks. Not exactly like Auburn and LSU have been consistent programs. Both have struck a bit of lighting, and in LSU's case twice.

Okay, I guess you're right.  Take away all-time great HCs, and what have you done?!?!  Great point.
