SEC facts

[lookyzark]

SEC bowl record of 12-16 over the last 2 years. This year alone, the SEC is 2-7 against non SEC schools. 4-9 overall this year. Is the SEC being exposed? I know bowl games dont mean what they used to. Not one SEC head coach under contract is left in the tournament.

When ESPN creates an echo chamber for the SEC to live in, the rhetoric will continue.

 

[lookyzark]

Very well said. Those pre-season rankings really do matter. When a team is ranked higher than they should be and lose to an in conference team also ranked higher than they should be, the narrative of the "best" conference's teams beating up on each other thrives in that ESPN echo chamber. This narrative ultimately starts on inflated recruiting rankings.

Glad we were not playing an SEC school in Vegas...not that they are feared, just don't want to contribute a W to that record

This was posted elsewhere but yeah, just a wee bit of bias.

I think that guy went back and added TN. Makes it even worse for the bias.

Appreciate you finding/posting it. But no SEC bias....And props to Minnie as well over that span.

Assuming all of us have a pro-Big10 bias, how many of us think college football should have been talking about Minnesota more often in the last five years?

Listen, I am pro B1G when talking about how much the SEC sucks. Take the SEC out of the conversation and I don't care about the goofs at all, so not much.

Does anyone think Nebraska would have a better record in the SEC than the Big 10?

Big 12?

 

[lookyzark]

I think the wall we hit in the Big 10 is a lot more set than it would be in the SEC. In the Big 12 or ACC, we would have a better chance at a title. I only say this because of the mainstay programs at the top of the Big 10 that arent going away anytime soon.

Big 12?

That's a good question. I know folks speak to "losing Texas recruits", so I guess in the SEC we'd still have that footprint and even in the Big 12. We just seem to be stuck in no mans land and have been for years. I look at how quickly Oregon assimilated to the culture and physicality of the B1G. Also thought it's take OU years to adjust to the SEC, but they seem to have barely missed a beat. Meanwhile over a decade in the B1G and we are still floundering....

Maybe it's coaching. Maybe it's scheme/identity. Maybe lack of talent. I have no idea other than we just seem to be stuck in neutral..Getting wins or losses like the moon pulling the tide...Sometimes highs and sometimes lows..

we have an identity. we fire coaches. that is why we can't get any greats to come here and we have to try to hit with unproven coaches.
