SEC, the big gorilla?

Easton Pa ND Fan · Jul 19, 2009

The SEC team's are 1 touchdown stronger per game than the
Mountain West and Conference-USA. They are 2 tds per game
better than the Western Athletic and Mid-American confer-
ences. The SEC teams overwhelm the Sun Belt by 3 tds per
team!

THe power ratings of all teams in all conferences were up-
dated and averaged (5 sets). ND would be the top gun in
the Conference-USA, Sun Belt and Mid-America conferences.

So why does the SEC duck all those Div 1A teams and Navy, and Air Force to play all those Div I AA schools?

The SEC has traditionally scheduled weak OOCs and refused to travel outside their conference confines. They don't even want to leave the South for a bowl game. SEC fans think the Cotton Bowl is overseas.

1. The SEC Elite (LSU, FL, GA) are scared to lose a game outside of the SEC Conference. They claim they play the toughest teams in thier own conference anyway.

2. SEC Fans trailer homes can only travel so far

3. Due to legal issues SEC fans are only allowed to stay in state.

4. Can you imagine what the powers that be (BCS Idiots) would say if teams like Utah, BYU, Boise, beat the shit out of SEC teams in non conference games.

Fantastic list. Might I add to #4? Utah did kick the shit out of Alabama. HukHuk.

So did Louisania-Monroe. I think Southern Mississippi was one of the straws that broke Mike Dubose's back.

Mississippi State got beaten by Div AA Maine 2 or 3 years ago.

Yup, Miss State lost to Maine 9-7 in 2004.

Which makes their spin, er point, that the SEC is tough from Top To Bottom when playing with themselves.

Maine was 5-6 that year losing to such Div AA powerhouses as James Madison, Hofstra, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire. Only two teams scored less than 24 points on Maine that season, Northern Colorado was shutout and Mississippi St, the Gatorbeaters, scored all of 7 points.

To chime in since I live in the heart of SEC land, it is very hard to get anyone to talk about other sports teams down here if it isn't in the SEC. I am an alumni of U. of Memphis, and the only reason our football team sucks as bad as it does is b/c we simply don't have the financial resources to compete with the likes of the UT's, Georgia's, Florida's, etc.... Instead we get to look forward to our great C-USA schedule. Thank God for our Basketball Team!!!

I'm sorry but if I am going to lose a game I would rather it be against a D1 team. Stranger things have happened in college ball and losing to 1AA or D2 is not out of the question.

SEC, the big gorilla?
