    Ya i forgot basketball, baseball, track & field take no talent. For one you probably don't have a athletic bone in your body and for two the best college athletes come from the west coast end of story.

    Dear God, what kind of stupidity is this?

    Your conference bowl record proves otherwise. Keep up the excuses though, your jelly is sweet.

    Over the last 40 years in the Major "BCS" type bowl games
    (= BCS MNCG, Rose, Fiesta, Sugar, Orange, & Cotton til '98)

    Alabama is 8-9 on the big stage.

    As an Ole miss fan - We have te highest bowl winning percentage in the nation with teams that have played in 30 or more bowl games.


    Wrong -

    Even with USC's loss in the Sun Bowl, the Trojans still have the best all-time win pct in the nation
    in bowl games. (30 bowl games or more)

    I thought you southern guys were suppose to know your football?!

    By the way, nice Florida player in your signature, i remember when he scored a TD as a freshmen in a 41-14 beat down of Ohio State.

    In case you need a reminder to pay your respects to your Gator Masters, here ya go.

    just for giggles

    Play

    Michigan Highlights from the 2008 Capital ...

    Michigan 41, Florida 35. Michigan overcame four turnovers and came from behind in the fourth quarter to win the 2008 Capital One Bowl. Mike Hart went 32-129-2 but fumbled twice after going over one thousand carries without fumbling. Chad Henne went 23-39-373-3-2, with a 21-yarder to Mario Manningham (7-53) and 18- and 1-yard passes to Adrian Arrington (9-153). After gaining the lead late in the fourth quarter, Michigan held Florida to two straight four-and-outs to seal the win.

  • There's no way that they're the most overrated conference. That distinction would go to the Pac 12 as it does year in and year out. Hey, I'm a Canes fan and I know the ACC sucks monkey balls. The SEC is HANDS DOWN the best conference year in and year out.

    Pac 12 rests their laurels on USC and Oregon every single year. USC just became the first preseason number 1 school to fall out of the top 25 since 1964. They lost 6 games. Oregon bitches for respect every year. Show up and show me and the rest of the world that you can actually stop one play off tackle and I'll give you props, let alone hold somebody to under 400 yards or 35 points.

    SEC dominates every single year. They can't win EVERY game, but they win the majority of the big ones.

    Them team we beat in that bowl game was the same team that beat OSU, NC or not we still listened to slow Michigan wouldnt stand a chance against the speed of the Gators, that didnt work
    Michigan was in line to play in that NC game, remember? Michigan #2 OSU #1, #2 lost on the road by a field goal, and its only loss of the season but some cried they didnt wanna see a rematch of 2 teams from one conference play for a NC, huh ring a bell?

    The Big Ten has no discussion in this. they're just the big 10. Nobody fears them. Nobody makes predictions for them to win the national title, etc etc etc....

    Big Ten is just the Big Ten. Nothing more and nothing less.

    What?! Same team? We lost that entire defense from the 06 MNC team. The 07 team lost 4 games. Chris Leak was the starting QB for the 06 team. Dude, you are reaching on that one...

    You should be glad OSU is ineligible. If they weren't, Bama would be playing in the Sugar Bowl.

    Remember that when you raise the crystal.

    dont get ahead of yourself spanky.

    if tOSU wasnt ineligible, liar would still be your HC & its very unlikely w/ SweaterVest at the helm that the Bucks would have squeaked out wins over
    power house programs such as Purdue and/or Indiana this past year.

    be thankful you have Urbs & enjoy the plain white Tshirts. coffee

    Dude, I'm a Canes fan and I don't think Tressel did a damn thing wrong. They tried to tear them down over tattoos??? Please. Guy was just protecting his kids. Nothing more and nothing less. In fact, as a parent I would WANT my kid to play for a guy like Tressel.

    A lot more shadier shit is going on in the NCAA than this. Not sure why they had targeted them, but the people running the NCAA are loco

    Doesn't matter what we think. The point is he knew about it, knew it was an ncaa violation, and knew the only chance he had at having a good season and beating Arky in the sugar bowl was to lie. All I'm saying. Not sure why you would want your kids playing for someone like that, but ok.

    You sure say a lot with out saying anything there macdaddy. I know SEC is god in your part of the country but out here we laugh at how stupid your fans sound acting like you rule college sports. Fact is bro PAC12 is the most dominant Sports Conference period 106 UCLA 100 Stanford 92 USC 50 Oklahoma St. 42 LSU 41 Arkansas 40 Penn St. 40 Texas 37 North Carolina 33 Michigan Not even close

    Sports conference? Football is all that matters, so congrats on the underwater tree hugging championship. In football, SEC is king and well the PAC 12 just doesn't measure up. Enjoy curling season or whatever sport it is you're bragging about.

    Well I've listened to these sec fans bash the ACC all year, calling them the worst conference in america etc.. etc... So when one of the tops teams form the SEC loses to them it does show a somewhat overrated conference. I guess i could of worded a little different.

    Your conference does suck. You dont know d!ck about college football either. Your agrument holds no water cause the ACC doesnt have a team playing for it all. The SEC is playing for it and winning it. So stfu and stop trying to act like that conference is worth a sh!t. Bama, UGA, Texas a&m, south carolina are better teams than any team in the ACC. LSU is better than Clemson. LSU had national title aspirations and Clemson and Dabo thought they won the NC after beating LSU. LSU didnt give a sh!t about that game. they should have but they didnt. So yeah you dont know d!ck about college football.

    Roll over? Hmm weird, could've sworn my "roll over Tide" has won two crystal footballs the last three years with the opportunity to play for a third. A feat your all mighty Pete Carroll couldn't accomplish.

    Oh and when USC isn't playing in the Rose Bowl, their bowl record is 8-8. Guess they aren't that great once they are outside of their own city. I can cherry pick stats too.

    Edit: Bama is 4-1-1 in Rose Bowls, so must not be that hard to dominate.

    Given that the media rates the Big 12 above the SEC, I think they get it just fine.
