    Is SEC the Best of the Best?

    I can't wait till next year. We ought to have at least 3 teams in the BCS. It's us against them. Bring it on!

    It can't happen, because only two teams from the same conference can go to a BCS game (although the SEC will certainly have at least four of the top eight talent-wise I'll admit)...

    Ohio State wasn't necessarily outclassed last night in terms of talent. They were out-coached, and were dominated in the 2nd quarter. That's where they lost the game.

    They should have altered protection assignments on the edges, done something in order to combat the pressure the QB was feeling, because he clearly didn't have a quick enough release to negate that pressure himself. He held the ball far too long on many different occasions and it cost them.

    Even when his line held up enough for him to scan down the field, when nothing was there or he didn't see anything he liked, he still held onto the ball way too long just waiting in limbo.

    The SEC put 9 teams in bowl games and ended up with a record of 7-2 and a national championship.

    The maybes of so and so teams being better aren't gonna hold any water until a play-off system is in place. We in the SEC have wanted one for a long time. This is the only sport that doesn't have one. All other levels of college football have a play-off system.

    This is why PAC10 and Big Ten do not want a playoff system. The BCS was created to assure that each year a team from the PAC10 or a team from the Big Ten will make it to the championship game.

    Can someone name a year where both the PAC10 and the Big Ten were left out of the BCS championship game?

    well the first championship game was tn/fsu. so thats one.


    moving on, next year lsu, tn, fla, and uga will have 4 of the top 6 or 7 most talented rosters in the nation. south car will be much better, bama will be loaded in the near future, and auburn will be sending as many players to the NFL as anyone outside the SEC but USC and maybe Texas.

    there is def something to the love affair from the media with the big-10. hell, osu had more heisman winners than the SEC coming into this season.

    Of course , anyone who thinks the SEC is not the best conference in the country should never bet again. . . Every game is a battle. . .

    I heard a lot of Buckeye fans today who really didn't care if they have a higher graduation rate either.
