You are biased by the way...
For certain. As are you.

We usually rate conferences in a comparative manner.

What conference is better than the SEC?
(Hint: The answer is: none are better.)

Rating conferences in a comparable manner is not exactly an exact science. Need I pull out the facts again?
Tennesse/Cal L
SC/Clemson L
FL/FL St W
LSU/Va Tech W
Wake/ Vandy L
GA/OK St W
GA/GA Tech W
Aub/S FL L
Aub/K ST W
Miss St/WV L
Mizzou/Ol Miss L
SC/NC W
KY/Lou W
Ala/FSU L

That is the SEC vs the other major conferences
7 wins 7 losses

Hardly dominant or clearly the best

I didnt even bring up UL Monroe

Of course you may choose to ignore the results of actual games and continue to rely on your personal polls and other such ranking tools. It would probably qualify you to be on the Board of the NCAA football playoff committee.

So what conference is better?
The best football I have seen this year is in the SEC.
The best athletes I have seen all around are in the SEC.

And I am a little 12 fan.

These are the 2 dumbest statements i have seen yet. The best athletes all around? Do they have a Punt, Pass and Kick contest at halftime of the games?

How does one determine that the LSU/Tennessee game is better football than the Missouri/Oklahome game?

1. Yes indeed. I have surveyed the punters and kickers of the SEC and this of course makes them better athletes.

2. You set up your own comparison. I never said anything about this one comparison.

Just tell me what conference is better than the SEC?

I give up.
The SEC is the greatest, all the non conference games they lost were fixed, the LSU/Arky game was a set up to get the great Houston Nutt to Ol Miss to make them a top team too so that the top 25 will now become the SEC and the 13 other pretty good, not that athletic teams. I am in awe of the greatness of the athletes and coaching and fans of the SEC.


Actually I would say that Mizzou, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Texas Tech and Texas A&M match up pretty well with LSU, Tennessee,GA, FL, Ark, and Auburn

Oklahoma/LSU
Mizzou/GA
Kansas/TN
Texas/FL
Texas Tech/Ark
Texas A&M/Auburn

Pretty close

Well if the SEC is so much the superior conference it is only natural to assume that the conference championships would be wildly in favor of the SEC. Of course maybe you are arguing that the weaker SEC teams are better than the weaker other conference teams....which you would be correct in assuming and by doing so make this a more irrelevant argument than I thought possible.
