That's not the point and you know it.  Once you set yourself up so that you don't take any chances of losing a game against a quality opponent you have your base to go off of and there is...once again...a reason why they only play 8 SEC games.   This is why the ACC does as well because they also know the chances of losing one game are greater and if the SEC isn't doing it, why the hell shoot yourself in the foot and go to 9 like the Big 12 or PAC.

As for the results the SEC has done well...of course and it is because they have talent, no doubt.  They get how the game is played and yes...it is the NCAA's fault for letting this happen along with a crooked bowl system.   The SEC gets a mulligan every year and having ESPN sing their praise because they are their largest investment also helps their cause.

As for "some" other AQ schools playing in their conference and not competing...Missouri and A&M seem to be doing pretty well for just joining.  Just look at Missouri's history and see how well they did in the Big 12.  This asinine argument has been said for years..."If that team was in the SEC they wouldn't win 3 games"...well guess what, those schools are in it and took off right away.
