Message: [QUOTE="SmilinBob, post: 375500, member: 857"] Bama played Michigan ... will play Va Tech next year in the Georgia Dome ... has played PSU twice and spanked them twice in the last few seasons ... what more do they have to prove? LSU beat Oregon in the regular season ... Florida plays a top 10 FSU annually ... the only team we should be bragging about playing would be USC ... NW isn't a bad team but is not as good as FSU, Mich, Clemson, Oregon, Boise St or some of the other teams that SEC has played in the regular season over the last few years ... and now you cite bowl success against other AQs because the games are in the south? Really? Its also easy for them to recruit because the top flight high school talent is in their backyards ... they eat sleep and breathe football down here ... that is why they recruit ... period. I think you are really reaching ... with a helluva gauntlet for an in conference schedule why make your OOC tough. SU plays in quite possibly the worst BCS conference and lets face it ... their in conference schedule is a joke compared to what you would see in the PAC-12, Big-12 or SEC.[/quote] Exactly, one game OOC vs AQ and 8 home games...amazing that people disregard h/a games in college football. I'm well aware of the passion down there, Jesus you have bought the act hook line and sinker. I am not saying and please read what I am saying again...not saying the big east is better because I have no clue where you whipped out this strawman...I'm saying that the SEC schedules for success. You mentioned Florida's brutal schedule. Bowling Green, Jacksonville or Louisiana Lafayette keep you up all night? 7 home games and a neutral vs Georgia. They play 4 ranked teams SU plays 5, well now 4 since NW lost. [/QUOTE]
