AU64 10,122 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Perhaps we should re-define the word garbage. Glad we could contribute to the league bowl dominance this year. Sure feels better ending on a winning note. Good point....the BSPN anti-SEC talking heads are going to have a hard week ahead now that SEC has not only won most of their games but made some opponents look pretty bad. Nice work by Tenn, Miss State and a few others....including AU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice work by Tenn, Miss State and a few others....including AU. How about Colin Cowherd, maybe the QB play isn't bad maybe Defense is that good. I think the SEC even with the loses outscored their opponents something like 359 to 200. An kept most of the teams they played around 250 total yards it was ugly this year. I would say there was a chip on the shoulder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hutchids 227 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Talk about turning it around. If TCU can pull this out, the SEC will get that capital one cup too from the college game day. Kind of a pointless award since teams that play many bowl games are at a disadvantage to win it, but still, talk about the sec showing it's dominance second half of the year. The cup would be icing on the cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keesler 5,932 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Sad part is that the SEC Champs will still be one of the best teams in the country, if not the best. All of college football is down this year, a lot of rebuilding. You see all the coaches being fired? Big Sparty is going to trample the "tahd" Ha I doubt it, but anything can happen. Who's in the final four? If Oklahoma made it they could have a shot Clemson Oklahoma MSU bammer Really silly to "doubt" that MSU could beat the Turds. The B1G was a better conference than the SEC this year, few doubt that. MSU has wins this season over ALL the top teams in the B1G except Wiscy - a team they didn't play. So not only did they beat a very good Oregon team, they beat an undefeated and stout Iowa team, a solid Michigan team, and Ohio State - esentially the same OSU that pounded Bama in the playoffs last year. In fact, they held that star-studded OSU team to a platry 137 yards of total offense; a THIRD of what OSU ran up on the Turd defense. Bama has not had a test like MSU since they played OSU last year - the last real test they had and failed miserably at. Great for MSU & Dantonio!Hopefully MSU plans to install a completely different offense in the next 3 weeks if they want a chance of beating UAT. The savages will feast on that MSU team if they plan to run the same scheme they've used all year. Well, looks like Dantonio didn't change a dang thing in his offense, and just as I anticipated...those savages had quite a feast. MSU tried to test that bama offense and Coker/Ridley/Stewart/Mulhaney lit the Spartys up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bowl wins look good but to ignore the entire year ( this thread) is well...ignorance. I don't think we were the worst conference. I think last year we were better but didn't show up in the bowl games. The East=not good. West=down but still better than everyone. The big ten=garbage minus OSU/Michigan. Happy? We agree. But to go out and say we are Awesome! Woo party. Yay! We are Awesome this year! It's a gross overstatement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgr4lfe 220 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Nobody was saying the SEC was awesome, BUT bowl games THIS YEAR (don't give a flip about last year) the SEC is sitting at 8-2, which is pretty darn good, you are still looking back over the entire year. That is ok, but given some of the performances during the year and the OP of this thread (and others that concurred) the consensus would have been that the SEC would get dominated in the bowls this year, but they didn't and actually have dominated more in bowls. Probably dominated more than anyone expected. I didn't expect wins like that. Like one sports guy said maybe the SEC Ds were better than what everyone thought? Granted, no stand out QBs (except for B. Allen at Arky), but most of them had a pretty good supporting cast around them. I don't know, but maybe the offenses were better than we thought just couldn't really see it b/c of the performance of the D's this year. I would have been fine with the SEC being 1-9 in those bowls with AU the lone win, but most them owned their bowl game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lionheartkc 6,150 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 If you use the bowls as a measuring stick, what they show is that the SEC is still dominant, but they are becoming more even, internally, so they are doing what many of us have expected for years... beating themselves up to the detriment of national rankings.

I agree with the statement that there isn't as much disparity in the SEC anymore, no one team just dominating and destroying others, much more even across the board. This 2016 season could be as cut throat as ever with so many younger teams. Several teams will be breaking in a new QB (MSU, bama, Arky), but that doesn't mean a lot anymore unless they are a freshman, or play at AU.
