Default OT : College Football Ranking-- Just an Observation

Posted By: Rhett Yeakley

Bob, I'm not saying that Utah was better than Florida. Would Florida have won the game if they played? they probably would, but the same thing was being said about Utah not having a chance against Alabama prior to that game.

To say Utah would have been "lucky" to have gone .500 in the SEC is pure speculation, and an easy cop out -- as it is a theoretical that can't happen and is therefore not a relavent point.

The SEC is a very tough conference, however, the SEC fans out there always bring up the fact that no other conference is as tough as theirs is silly because that too is not measurable, we don't know how Florida/LSU/Alabama/etc. would do if they played in the Big 12 or the Pac 10 just like we don't know how USC/Oklahoma/Texas/Texas Tech/etc. would do in the SEC. The point is that the way to settle it all is on the field. The SEC supporters (biased ESPN included) always belittling the other Conferences the way you just did are just as blind as those that belittle the SEC as vastly overrated. Let the players on the field settle it once and for all.
