im rooting for Sparty all the way

Why would you even want to give the SEC a chance at another title? I want FSU & OSU to both win, keep the SEC out of it completely.

This.

Also, the batshit cray cray situtaion is FSU or tOSu (but not both) losing and Mizzou winning...

Could you imagine Bama getting the nod over Mizzou in that situation??? unlikely, but they do tend to get the beneift of the doubt, like, always...

It's much easier ACamp if you just accept it and move on. Got a couple of Bama sweatshirts I will throw in for you. May even throw you a game ticket a few times a year. The BBQ down here is to die for. You know you want to.

Sure... and if your real nice I may even let you hobnob with Finebaum and Nicky.

Get a room, you two!!!

It's kind of crazy that in Bamas' dynasty they only have one undefeated season. They got benefit-of-the-doubted into two championship games over other one loss teams. And who knows if they beat Texas if McCoy doesn't get hurt?

I saw a stat over the weekend where they are 7-5 (I think that was it, it's something like that) in Nov. against D-1 teams during this run...

just looked at it... 2 in 2010, 1 each of the last three years... all in November...

Good call; close. 8-4 in November since 2010; add in 2009, when they beat Tex, and it's 12-4.

You do know who they lost to? Correct? Just sayin'

I am. A one dimensional Auburn team that would be .500 in most conferences, a middling big 12 team with no defense what so ever, A one man team that got their coach fired just a couple years later, and a team coached by a complete cartoon… yes. I am aware. And when those are the only teams they play pretty much all year long, they have to do better than 7-5.

And yet that one man beat an Oregon team with the most prolific offense known to college football. And JFF and crew - with a dam* good defense last season beat Oklahoma like a rented mule, and an LSU team that played for a national title. This year... no excuse. Bama lost to a team they should have beat. And where would your team end up with those cartoonish opponents?

 

[ACamp1900]

With your schedule we'd be in the BCS almost every year.... not hard to win ten games when you only play a few losable games every year...

How do you know? Our so called soft schedule didn't seem to matter much last year. And still, we have played - and beat - more top 10 and top 25 teams in the last five years than the Irish. Good converstion but the merits of your argument don't hold much weight. Enjoy.

Easy to do when the teams they play tend to also play the same basic build... thus win more games... thus get the same benefit of the doubt in the polls... Enjoy.

I prefer the benefit of the doubt on the playing field... and with that, there isn't much of an argument there. Time to move on...

You can't really believe that the mighty 2011 Oklahoma State team was a better team than the 2011 Alabama team, right? Iowa State was a mediocre team. They finished at 6-7, and could just as easily have had 4 more losses (during the regular season). It's not like Oklahoma State lost to a top 25 team. That would have been like Bama losing to a .500 Vandy team. I think last year's team proved that they were very much deserving of being in the title game, especially after they won it convincingly. If anything, one could make a case that ND wasn't really one of the two best teams in the country given their performance in the game. Or even during the season with their close wins over average and sub-par teams, since a lot of people are so big on "style points."

This is always a good read - definitely applies this year, but written before 2012 season.

I don't think any person who is even the least bit objective would disagree with that. Although it's certainly not an average conference like some fans believe. I just can't stand the people who always complain after they hear Mark May or Cowturd say how the SEC is unbeatable. Obviously it isn't, and those people need to actually think for themselves. They have to realize that people like Cowturd just like to stir the pot to get ratings, and likely have no clue what they're talking about, and either take what they say with a grain of salt or stop listening to them.

 

[johnnycando]

Fuck Alabama.

How's that for meaningful conversation?

 

[johnnycando]

10. How do you make Alabama cookies? Put them in a big bowl and beat for three hours.

9. It's reported that Nick Saban will only dress 20 players for the Tennessee game. The rest will have to dress themselves.

8. What does the average Alabama student get on his SAT score? Drool.

7. What did the Alabama graduate say to the Tennessee graduate? Welcome to McDonald's, may I take your order please?

6. An Alabama fan walks into the doctor's office one day with a hat on. He takes off his hat, and the doctor sees that there is a big frog sitting right on top of his head. The doctor looks at the man and asks him why he has a frog sitting on his head. It was the frog who replied "Actually doc, I was the one who wanted to see you. Can you remove this wart off my butt?"

5. Why should the University of Alabama change it's team name to the opossums? Because they play dead at home and get killed on the road.

4. Where was O.J. really hiding at right before the famous Bronco chase? On the campus at Alabama. He figured they would never find a real football player there.

3. What do you call a good looking girl on the University of Alabama campus? a Visitor.

2. What should you do if you find three Alabama fans buried up to their necks in cement? Get more cement.

And......The number one Alabama joke of all time is:

1. What do a maggot and an Alabama fan have in common? They can both live off of a dead bear for 20 years.

I know I'm asking too much, but I do want to see a SEC team get into the NCG, and lose. If the NCG is FSU and OSU, then the SEC leg-humpers can go on all off season about how they got shut out and would've killed it in the Natty if they had the chance. I haven't seen enough of FSU/Auburn/Mizzou to know how the match-ups would work out, but seeing an SEC team lose the big game is better, IMO, then not seeing them in it all.

Agreed. Plus as long as Jameis is eligible, I'd take FSU over Auburn or Mizzou all day.
