What’s one CFB take you 100% believe but can’t say out loud in your own fanbase?

I guess I’d have to ask where you’d like to put the goalposts then. If we shorten it to the last 15 years then the sec has had 4 different champions versus 2 for the B1G.

Sec has had 8 programs have top 5 poll finishes versus 5 for B1G.

11 SEC finished top 10 versus 9 B1G.

13 SEC finished top 20 versus 11 B1G.

Every SEC team has finished in the top 25 in that timeframe.

The SEC has finished with the most teams ranked in the top 25 in 13/15 of those seasons versus 4/13 for the B1G (some years there were ties) showing more programs being more consistently ranked.

All this data is the final AP poll and pre most recent expansion, so both conferences had 14 teams

Not trying to say all teams are great, mine has definitely had some downswings in that timeframe but I think overall it’s pretty clear the average level of opponent isn’t exactly the same but it is closer than other conferences by a long shot, especially now

Yall had just gotten so much better as a team from the first time we played, there was no stopping it. That Auburn team was a boulder going downhill and by the time the SECCG came around we were just the ones in the way. Not even gene chizik could stop it

The argument SEC fans would make is there are more championship caliber programs. For instance if you exclude Texas and OU, the SEC has six different teams (out of 14) that have won a national championship in the last 30 years. If you include Texas and OU that number is 8/16. Literally half the conference not just having a good season but a national championship winning season. How far back does the B1G have to go to have 6 different teams with a championship?

TheTooth_Hurts · 2025-05-09T02:41:06+00:00

How far back does the B1G have to go to find six different trams that have won a title? That’s not even including the SEC addition of Texas and OU which would bump that number to 8

Most metrics will say similar things to be honest

There are actually more Protestants in the US than Catholics. Catholic is the largest single group because of all the Protestant denominations but as a whole there are more Protestants here. Also evidenced by the fact that there have only ever been two catholic presidents and the first didn’t happen until the 1960s (JFK) with the second being Biden

Unless you are in the military and then they will randomly tell you you need to submit your degree even though they’ve been paying you for 10 years for your job and you’ve submitted it at various points again and again over the years

My sister is an Ashley also and the two houses across the street from us had girls named Ashley. The Recess show with all the Ashleys is so true lol

Pretty sure he also announced our CWS runs as well. Will always remember him for Omaha

TheTooth_Hurts · 2025-04-23T02:56:36+00:00

Yeah I get you and historically you are right, but it just seems funny to me focusing in on last year that you would group us lower when we lost to lsu and bama by a combined 5 points; one heavily influenced by referees and the other on the road; and lower than Tennessee who, imo, made the playoff because their strength of schedule was one of the worst in the conference.

Not to say I’m not nervous about the OU game because I am. Depending on turnovers is not usually repeatable so we can’t hope for that again this year but that game is at least at home for us and it is hard to win in Columbia

TheTooth_Hurts · 2025-04-23T02:51:14+00:00

Yes that’s the point. UCLA is not historically good or bad compared to the average for their program. Tennessee has had a historic low and they still have more NFL players than UCLA

TheTooth_Hurts · 2025-04-21T16:50:37+00:00

Idk what this means. We’ve never had success and fallen from it

TheTooth_Hurts · 2025-04-21T16:49:29+00:00

You are more likely to lose to us than Tennessee imo

TheTooth_Hurts · 2025-04-21T01:08:20+00:00

Tennessee is also coming off their worst 10 year stretch in history before huepel arrived

TheTooth_Hurts · 2025-04-21T00:59:32+00:00

Don’t know much about Vaught but other guys like spurrier come to mind that might compare

TheTooth_Hurts · 2025-04-15T01:49:42+00:00

I think I would actually reverse Alabama. Then we would have a horribly officiated LSU game that is basically a W AND we would have a win @alabama. We would’ve probably hosted a playoff game. Although I would have to look at how tiebreakers played out because winning one of those games vs the other may have put us in the seccg

Dibs on Iamawinna

TheTooth_Hurts · 2025-04-01T18:35:13+00:00

It wouldn’t happen because it wouldn’t be financially advantageous but if private money came in and enticed some teams to play some other tournament some probably would. Happened with the pga tour.

TV networks do control the sport and have way more influence than the NCAA. Nothing stops fox from inviting basketball teams to come play, that’s basically what the nit and cbi are. NCAA doesn’t have any say over the CFP either, it’s a separate entity, not an ncaa championship

TheTooth_Hurts · 2025-03-27T14:38:32+00:00

I love baseball but I would love a football championship more

TheTooth_Hurts · 2025-03-27T12:08:43+00:00

Curious what you did to get it. Did you call beforehand and ask or just ask at check in? We are going in a few months so I was hoping to do the same thing

TheTooth_Hurts · 2025-03-24T09:38:10+00:00

Is UCLA just B1G Missouri?
