This has been a tough thread for the SEC fluffers.
One of the worst games I last year was miss st vs auburn. My god, what a dreckfest.
Did you get a chance to see Colorado/Cal last year?
I did. Equal amount of dreck. But, last I checked, cal didn't beat Alabama & play for a national championship. They got rolled by every legit team they faced.
Auburn wasn't very good early in the year. They got better as the season went on and managed to beat some very good teams. They also gave FSU quite a game if I recall.
Fuck your tide, they have 12 returning starters, a 6-5 statue in Cocker who hasn't tickled a centers balls and everyone (ESPN, the owner of the college football ripoff) is projecting them #1. Don't let Georgia, SC or Auburn get in the way.
Nobody is getting out of the pac12 alive (Unless your Oregon with a Nike schedule). Someone will get out of the SEC undefeated because it's only 6-deep. Then a second SEC team will get in over a 1 - loss pac12 team because of the ESPN lobby. Just watch. Again, fuck your tide!
My Crimson Tide have 3 of the last 5 national championships. Doog.
How can you not win 3 titles when you play 2 difficult games a year and a free pass to every title game? Then play one team, in your own conference, who you already beat comfortably during the regular season? Then play a ND team that squeaked by Pitt in 3 overtimes another year? Those national titles were flukes and given to Saban on a silver platter
Let's look at the OOC schedules of teams that played the SEC in the title game. Shall we?
2013 FSU: @Pitt, Nevada, Bethune-Cookman, Florida (SEC teams don't play anyone, though) 2012 Notre Dame: Independent school. Argument isn't valid here. Definitely earned their spot, but got raped by Bama. 2011: The infamous all-SEC title game... Bama played at Penn St. and LSU beat Oregon OOC 2010 Oregon: New Mexico, @Tennessee (SEC teams don't play anyone, though), Portland St. 2009 Texas: Louisiana-Monroe, @Wyoming, UTEP, Central Florida 2008: Chattanooga, Cincinnati, UW (0-12 baby!!!), TCU 2007 Ohio St: Youngstown St. Akron, @Washington , Kent St. 2006 Ohio St: Northern Illinois, @Texas, Cincinnati, Bowling Green 2003 Oklahoma: North Texas, @Alabama (SEC teams don't play anyone, though), UCLA 1998 FSU: Texas A/M, USC, @Miami, Florida (one loss team, but also played the toughest schedule on this list)
As you can see, most of the teams that "earned" their trip to the title game versus SEC opponents played cupcake schedules OOC, save for 1998 FSU, 2003 Oklahoma, and Notre Dame in 2012.
You're wasting your time with PLSS and Bill. I laid out last years OOC schedules and showed that the SEC played as tough or tougher of a schedule as anyone. They'll just ignore facts.
PLSS I understand. I don't know why Bill is such a retard about it though.
That's one fucking year. You're completely missing the long term trend. This didn't start in 2012. Do I need to dredge out the OOC schedules from 2006, 2007, 2008 etc.? Like Puppy said, if every conference was treated equally every year, I wouldn't be bitching about it. That hasn't been the case though.
Hey dumbfuck... Are you gonna give the ACC shit? Oh wait, they aren't winning championships. So you can't really be jealous of them like the SEC.
All of the conferences have been doing it for a while, save for the Pac. We came on late.
I also find it interesting how the SEC played more power conference OOC opponents than the Big 12, Big 10 and Pac 12 over the period between 2007-2012.
FCS opponents ACC: 13 in 2012, 13 in 2011, 13 in 2010, 14 in 2009, 14 in 2008 and 7 in 2007, for a total of 74. SEC: 15 in 2012, 12 in 2011, 11 in 2010, 11 in 2009, 9 in 2008 and 9 in 2007, for a total of 67. Big Ten: 8 in 2012, 10 in 2011, 10 in 2010, 9 in 2009, 9 in 2008 and 8 in 2007, for a total of 54. Big 12: 9 in 2012, 6 in 2011, 8 in 2010, 9 in 2009, 10 in 2008 and 8 in 2007, for a total of 50. Big East: 9 in 2012, 8 in 2011, 8 in 2010, 9 in 2009, 7 in 2008 and 7 in 2007, for a total of 48. Pac-12: 9 in 2012, 8 in 2011, 7 in 2010, 4 in 2009, 2 in 2008 and 2 in 2007, for a total of 32. National totals: 63 in 2012, 57 in 2011, 57 in 2010, 56 in 2009, 51 in 2008 and 41 in 2007.
Big Six nonconference opponents ACC: 23 in 2012, 20 in 2011, 19 in 2010, 20 in 2009, 23 in 2008 and 22 in 2007, for a total of 127. Big East: 16 in 2012, 16 in 2011, 15 in 2010, 16 in 2009, 16 in 2008 and 15 in 2007, for a total of 94. SEC: 14 in 2012, 12 in 2011, 16 in 2010, 14 in 2009, 15 in 2008 and 14 in 2007, for a total of 85. Big Ten: 15 in 2012, 14 in 2011, 12 in 2010, 14 in 2009, 13 in 2008 and 13 in 2007, for a total of 81. Pac-12: 11 in 2012, 16 in 2011, 14 in 2010, 15 in 2009, 14 in 2008 and 11 in 2007, for a total of 81. Big 12: 9 in 2012, 9 in 2011, 12 in 2010, 11 in 2009, 15 in 2008 and 11 in 2007, for a total of 67. National totals: 88 in 2012, 87 in 2011, 88 in 2010, 90 in 2009, 96 in 2008 and 86 in 2007.
Yeah, they don't play anyone.
LOL, you're ignoring the fact they have more teams and play more out of conference games. Try again.
You could make the same argument for the amount of FCS games they play. More OOC games means they play less FCS teams per school.
They're still playing a lot per school. 1.07 per school in 2012. DNC said that... I think...
Just kneel down and kiss the rings bitch. You can't argue with their record in big games.
I'll make sure to bump this thread after the SEC tears it up again this year. Roll Tide!!!!
