SEC 6/6 1 to go for National Championship
ACC 8/3 " " "
B12 4/2 Nothing Special here!
PAC 3/3 Ditto
B10 3/7 What a Freaking Joke!!! Yet both OSU & Mich will be ranked in the Top 10 to start 2017
The Little 10 is WAY OVER-RATED!


At first glance looks like ACC is #1 but I'll let the Nat. Champ. Game decide that. Anyway it falls I love the
SEC, SEC, SEC!!!!!

Big 10 = Big Joke. pOSU way over rated as well. I actually feel better now about Meatchicken at the beginning of next season with them losing 20 out of 22 starters. UF has work to do to be ready for them.

What will that say about Mac if we still lose that game and their replacing 20/22 starters if you are correct? They should fire him on before we leave TX

Bowl records are crap, most of these teams mail it in and try things they normally wouldn't do during the season. Go take a look at Vegas and all the dogs taking the money this season.

ACC's only impressive bowl wins were by FSU, Miami, and Clemson. FSU shouldn't have even won, I blame Michigan for choking on the kickoff coverage and having their best two players hurt. Miami and Clemson were very impressive, though. I guess VT coming back on Arkansas was impressive, but not as much when you consider Missouri did the exact same thing to them in the last week of the season.

I think it will say what alot of us are thinking. But he will not be canned in TX.

Just stating from a standpoint the crew that gave the beatdown to Mac last year will be gone. And I was very impressed with some of our youth yesterday.

As many have said, bowl records don't mean much. It would be more meaningful if we looked at the matchups.....like the #2 ACC vs the #4 whomever.

Gators won -- Mushcramp lost. Those two results alone will make this off-season a little better for me.

As been said a few times, Bowl Games don't matter. Funny how that's said over and over and then turned around when used to point out a narrative to showing poor performance by a team or conference.

We all know the B1G is way overrated and has been. The darling of ESPN, where the big money actually is, loves them and continues to try and prop them up. They will continue in an effort to make their big money earn profits with relevance.

What I find interesting is that the ACC is actually growing and improving. As much as others want to poo-poo on their conference, they are pulling in SEC talent because players are tired of going up against Bama.

6-6 is pretty bad for the SEC. I know it is a down year and the record reflects that.

When I looked at the games and the teams records, of the 12 games the SEC played in. 2 had the SEC with a better record than their opponent (Alabama & Georgia). 1 Game where the records were even (Florida) the other 9 games, had the SEC team with a worse record than their opponent.

So 3-0 in games where the SEC was even or had a better record.
3-6 where the SEC had a worse record.

Just sayin.

I find it interesting that some of the posters with the biggest "in your face" comments after yesterdays win, are the same ones that claimed this time last year that bowl games are meaningless. Some only see what they want to see, and only discuss facts when they support a predetermined position.

I kinda get what you are trying to do but that's not how it works. We are usually going against a higher seed from another conference. Why? Because the SEC is the very best of the best. Gotta deal with it. No excuses.

Just out of morbid curiosity...who said that bowl games are now meaningless that had said they were important last year? Please cite these specific posters.
