    People keep gushing over these DTs because they're fat. I don't get it. Has the PAC12 never had 300+ DTs before? I've never seen such a big deal made out of 3 fat defensive linemen in my life.

    The SEC very well may be overrated. But Alabama ain't the SEC any more than Washington is Wazzou.

    Okay. There was an inbred from Alabama who did a ridiculous video that was entirely about how 'Bama was just fatter than UW. And this made Alabama a better team.

    Seriously. So now you are saying FATTER ISN'T BETTER. Boy, we feel really stupid for believing your inbred brethren now.

    'Bama is not the SEC. However a 14 team SEC has A SINGLE TEAM WITH more than eight wins. A twelve team Pac 12 has five teams with at least 9 wins.

    Since you are, you know, from the south - I will do the math for you. That is 5 times as many teams with at least nine wins. This is from a pool of teams that is significantly smaller than the bloated SEC.

    So, yes, there is a chance that 'Bama (while a giant among midgets) is not totally unbeatable by a real team.

    Really? When did that happen. I had no idea. . ..

    Next thing you'll tell me is that SECfans is the one who made the stupid video about Baker being too skinny.

    Whoosh much?

    If you can't see that my reply was mocking the typical SEC response to your poast then not even Grandpa Sankey can help you.

    I've been told no one can help me. . . .

    Ah yes, the old sort by 9 win teams metric. Famously outperformed SRS against the spread last bowl season.
