Regarding Joel Klatt-- he does, what he does, because of his network affiliation.  He's either been asked to be, or has chosen to be, the anti-SEC voice in a pro-SEC world.

Sure it leads him to say some dumb things in the spirit of being provocative, but overall I'm okay with it.  Lord knows we need SOMEONE calling out the SEC when the mediots' circle of stoopidity is doing nothing but slobbing SEC knob.



Klatt does it better than Danny Kanell did.

imo the thing about the SEC is it's not really miles better than the other conferences, it just usually has the best team at the top most years. 

When Meyer was at UF he built them to be a cut above every one- they were the pre-eminent program in CFB and won 2 titles in 5 years and were a c*nt hair away from winning 3 in 5 if not for......enter Nick Saban- the college coaching GOAT- who built something we may never see again at Bama. Kirby has certainly taken over the SEC and won back to back titles at UGA and has the "it" program right now- but he's still far cry from doing what Saban has done- time will tell if he can keep it up and stay at the mountain top- but Saban is still the king of CFB imo. Those 3 programs were really carrying the brand imo. Urbs insane stretch run at UF, Saban's insane and utter dominance over a long period, and Kirby's takeover really tell the tale imo. 

Yeah I know Auburn won with Cam in 2010- but to me that was an anomaly- almost a fluke- they got him only bc he got kicked out of Florida for stealing laptops and he only happened to have probably the greatest single season a college QB ever had. Until....Joe Burrow at LSU in 2019- who they also got in a transfer- had without question the greatest single season a college QB has ever had. Neither school has really done much since they were gifted from the gods a pair of the greatest single season QB'ing and #1 overall NFL draft picks at the most important position on the entire field.

the demographics just lend itself to whoever loads up on the most talent in the region will get a stranglehold on CFB. all the best players are in that region. when they are all going to UF- well they dominated. all been going to Bama...and they've well dominated. now they are all going to UGA...and well...dominating.

dude is 100% correct. hypocrisy at it's finest....whine and moan and bitch about NIL and transfer portal....when they literally out here transfer portaling conferences. Lol. B1G and B12 just destroyed the Pac and SEC ravaged the B12 for A&M + Missouri first and now Texas + OU. ACC about to get ripped to shreds with FSU and Clemson dying to leave for SEC or B1G.

don't wanna hear jackshit about the sanctity of college sports and amateurism....anyone spouting that bullshit can fk right off. but most ESPECIALLY college presidents, administrators, ADs, and coaches who all make wayyyyyy too much and have mostly bullshit jobs if we're being honest....

serious little brother complex going on right there....A&M will never escape the shadow of Texas. Ever. Just is what it is. Doesn't matter what conference they are in...
They have a lifetime win% against Texas of about 33%, but you should hear how they talk and talk about what they would have done to Texas over the past decade-- you know, if they hadn't run away from us to the SEC.

The ags have won 33% of games actually played, but 100% of games never played, between the two schools.
