    I'm fine with other conferences stepping up. It's not all about the Pac 12, although that would be cool.

    I don't get how people outside of the South aren't tired of the SEC.

    I'm tired of the other conferences not stepping up and being better than the SEC. The SEC has been better than everyone else for awhile, though not as much as everyone thought. But the gap is widening. This year the SEC really is massively better than everyone else. Your SEC fatigue might be around for a few years.
    Massively better? Let's talk December 6th

    The M schools are a flash in the pan. Within two years they will be forgotten. Alabama schools might sustain something. Florida..meh, maybe. Georgia is a choking joke. LSU...seems to be a 9-3 team. M schools are like when the Cougs made a Rose Bowl, then were 4-7 in a year or two.

    Ohio State was just undefeated but ineligible for anything and ignored. FSU just won it all. (Ex) middle tier Big 12 teams have done fine in the SEC. It's a really good league, but it won't be on top forever. It's not even on top right now judging by last year's NC.

    Utah is 10 minutes away from leading the South.

    Five weeks isn't likely to make you rational about this, but sure, let's talk.

    The SEC will still be dominating the human and computer poles on December 6th. Of that I am certain.

    And lol at the idea that FSU winning the NC last year means the SEC is no longer the best conference. Unless you actually want to argue the ACC was the best conference last season, in which case I'm all ears.

    Unless one of these SERIOUS Arizona schools comes back, the Pac-12 South leader will have its only loss be to a team that is already mathematically eliminated from bowl contention.

    Former Big 12 powerhouse Missouri leads the SEC East. This powerhouse lost a game at home to a Big 10 team that has yet to win a game in its own conference. SEC SEC SEC SEC SEC...

    No one thinks the SEC East is good. Some people think the Pac-12 South is good. They're the same shit.

    Who said the ACC was better? Not me. But people keep going back to seven straight. You can't have it both ways.

    Interesting find as of Aug 13, 2012 (To lazy to bring the list current myself):

    SEC vs. PAC-12 regular season: 10-12
    SEC vs. PAC-12 bowl games: 1-0
    SEC vs. Big 12 regular season: 6-10
    SEC vs. Big 12 bowl games: 21-8
    SEC vs. ACC regular season: 42-36
    SEC vs. ACC bowl games: 16-9
    SEC vs. Big 10 regular season: 7-4
    SEC vs. Big 10 bowl games: 19-19
    SEC vs. Big East regular season: 16-15
    SEC vs. Big East bowl game: 3-8

    That doesn't look all that dominant to me.

    So this SEC is better than everyone else, especially with all the natties. Lather, rinse, repeat.

    Because why? Put any SEC west team against equal number of the best pac12 teams, on a neutral field and its 50/50. How do you p r ove otherwise? T hey just beat each other up in both conferences. Why is SEC better? Have they proved it OOC? The pac12 did (sans Sarks masterpiece at BC). Fuck your SEC.
