Peppermint Patty Posted May 27, 2015 Report Posted May 27, 2015 Horns fan take on the SEC ?Is the SEC overrated - if only the 2014 Season is the indicator than perhaps it is.But if you look at the 2010 - 2014 Seasons then no it is not. The only other conferences that could possibly boast of the claim as the best football conference would be the Pac 12 and perhaps from a Texas fans perspective the Big 12.But lets look at W-L in bowl games - My opinion the best indicator of the depth of a conference since you remove most patty cakes and generally only the best survive to play.SEC 63% Winning percentage (31-18)Pac 12 54% Winning percentage (20-17)Big 12 47% Winning percentage (18-20)All things have a time limit and the SEC's may well be here but I think that after 1 sub-par year it may be too early to predict the death of the SEC as a power. It's about quality, not quantity. There is only 1 National Champion. That's all that matters. Never been a "conference" homer. UTfanatic and Mr. Buddy Garrity 2 Quote
UTfanatic Posted May 27, 2015 Report Posted May 27, 2015 The thread topic says it all. I can only take solace in understanding that Texas A&M is better by being a part of something bigger. Championships may come again someday. Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote
OldTimer Posted May 27, 2015 Report Posted May 27, 2015 It's about quality, not quantity. There is only 1 National Champion. That's all that matters. Never been a "conference" homer. If that is the case then the SEC is SECond to none with 7 of the last 9 NC's.I also think that teams should look at their own record and defend or take joy in that instead of their conference's record - But this was a thread started by an anti-SEC fan to bash the SEC. Only logical that some might defend the conference. Believe it or not you can defend a conference from unfair attacks and not be a "conference homer". Quote
