Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
Seriously? VA Tech? Maybe it's because I live downstairs from the biggest irrational Florida/SEC homer ever who annoys the hell out of me but I just don't see why everyone automatically assumes the SEC is just so amazing. Cal killed Tennessee, South Florida beat Auburn at Auburn, South Carolina barely beats North Carolina, Bama lost to FSU, and Ole Miss lost to Missouri. It just seems like this is the same mentality that led everyone to believe Michigan and OSU were so good last year; everyone just assumes the whole conference is so good. We know LSU is good, but VA Tech really is not spectacular (still an impressive win though, don't get me wrong) and the rest of the conference has not done a whole lot in the way of non-conference wins.
The conference may turn out to be great, but every SEC fan acts like they know for sure that it's the best conference when nobody really has any idea how good anyone is right now. |

Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
The SEC is the best, but parity abounds. Sagarin's rating have the SEC as #1 so it's not like it's an absurd assumption. Plus, if you have been watching lately, it's some pretty damn good football. The other conferences are good too (except maybe the ACC [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img])

Clearly LSU is the class of the league though. [/ QUOTE ] i want to believe so bad. but after Fla, Kentucky and the 1st half of Auburn, i ain't so sure. They looked more like pretenders. Now the 2nd half of Auburn (minus the one Auburn scoring drive) they definately looked like contenders. But that was a a ridiculously sloppy final 10 seconds. |

Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
also, one will never know about the SEC because, for the most part, they insulate themselves in their own little world and avoid playing the other major conferences

Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
Just finished watching the replay of Handy Vandy over Spurrier, and wow did SC look bad. Vanderbilt is not a good team, and SC's QBs looked even worse. Vanderbilt always has a decent defense and even better LBs, but so many passes were thrown really badly by SC.
