Its one thing to say the SEC is the best conference...
Its another to say the SEC is on a way higher level than any conference no other team could handle an SEC schedule no other conference plays defense Alabama could beat an NFL team etc etc |

NONE. cant respect a conference that from top to bottom plays no defense What about Texas A&M? Do they play defense now all of a sudden that they are in the SEC? But last year they didnt because they were in the BIG 12? After watching Louisville slice through the vaunted Florida defense yesterday Im starting to think that its not so much the defenses that are great its the offenses that are mediocre in the SEC.

When the bowl schedule came out I actually looked at it and thought "wow look at the easy schedule the SEC teams have! Why dont we have SEC teams playing top Pac 12 or Big 12 teams?"
I thought they were gonna roll through this cupcake bowl schedule! |

Lol is this the same Texas team who's biggest beat down this year was a Mississipi team who was up by 10 on this now "elite" A&M squad?
58-10? Texas isn't Auburn sorry to say... Last year it was "A&M and their spread offense is gonna get killed coming into a real conference that actually plays defense!" Now that they are an elite team in the SEC... "They're a completely different team that would beat Texas 58-10!" Lol |

The top 6 BCS ranked teams are ALL from the SEC. If this exact A&M team were 8-2 in the big 12 they prob wouldn't be in the top 20.
And before you say they wouldn't be 8-2 in the big 12 keep in mind they barely hung on to beat LA tech on a missed 2 pt convert. |

I think we all saw why Nick Saban is so negative on spread offenses on Saturday lol

Actually Alabama should drop below Florida... yes the extrememly painful to watch, anemic offense Florida team
Florida has 1 loss to a higher ranked opponent than Alabama, plus Florida already beat the team Alabama just lost to at home, on the road. And you have to wait and see where the computers rank Alabama when the BCS ranking come out, remember they had a huge lead at #1 already and may still be right on the tail of Notre Dame possibly even still ahead of them when the rankings come out. Wouldnt surprise me. And remember the rule if it comes down to this at the end of they year, if any of the undefeateds lose... a 1 loss SEC team is ranked higher than any 1 loss non- SEC team... no questions asked!!

Yes its sarcasm... seems like they suddenly they have a great offensive line, suddenly they have a killer defense (unless the play Louisiana Tech), and the best qb in football And we always hear "this undefeated team is a joke if they played in the SEC they would get smashed", i think you have to reconsider that statement after what has happened this year

The reason they barely dropped is because they lost to an absolute SEC POWERHOUSE... its not like they lost to some mediocre Big 12 team lol
expect them to jump right back to #2 with a win over Georgia...

Ball thrown 20 yards out of the end zone... pass interference!!!
20 yard pass interference penalty on some ticky tack contact contact on a tussle that is on the other side of the field of where Brady threw the football?!?! 4 pass interference penalties on Buffalo already lol If Brady throws an incompletion it has to be pass interference!!! theres no other way to explain him not completing a pass!!! What a freaking absolute joke can they hand New England this game on a platform any more? I feel sorry for Buffalo they are playing their hearts out and getting screwed over by the refs left and right... its not like Buffalo is getting any calls their way to even things out

I think A&M is an actual benefit of SEC bias this year now that they are in the conference... and yes im sure this new A&M team would blow out any other team ouside the SEC with THIS years team, now that they are an SEC team... well other than Louisiana Tech of course... lol A&M as a big 12 team= mediocre A&M as an SEC team= GREAT Im guessing the win will put A&M in the top 10 along with Georgia, Florida, LSU, South Carolina, and Alabama... making the SEC even STRONGER lol |

So is Dwayne Wade better than Lebron since he has a ring?
Does Lebron have to win 5 rings to be better than Derek Fisher?

Rondo had 20/18/17 and barely a whisper is heard. If Lin had those #'s all hell would be breaking loose on espn

Is it just me or is Lin getting wayyy to much credit on national tv? I mean hes got 2 points and 4 turnovers at the half and he looks erratic out there.. Baron Davis plays great yet no mention because the camera is squarely on Lin on the bench with every chance they get. Lin makes one basket and they are going on and on about the great play he makes. I mean its a great story and all but is it getting overdone?

I just read this interesting quote in an article:
The Heat certainly can take credit for being “Lin Stoppers,” just as much as the Pistons once were able to slow down Michael Jordan with their “Jordan Rules.’’ So there you go even Michael Jordan was slowed by the Pistons so please give Lin a break! or else your racist! lol |
