You basically critize your own conference by saying your out of conference schedule is stronger than any SEC school, because Florida plays FSU, Auburn and South Carolina play Clemson, Georgia plays Georgia Tech, and Tennessee plays North Carolina State, who is the team FSU lost to

I was looking at your schedule and am still looking for an out of state non ACC game.
Maybe you normally do, but this year, you didn't.
So, with Florida and Clemson, you have 2 ranked opponents this year.....brutal. also, an 0-7 SEC team that just fired their coach took care of NC St.

So using that logic about the NC State and Tennessee game that would make FSU>Texas A&M>LSU>South Carolina if FSU beats Florida

If I were the fan of an ACC school I believe I'd just stfu and move to the next thread. There are about 6-8 teams in the SEC that would have 1 loss or less playing FSU or CU's schedule.

I never said Tennessee was better than FSU. I stated that they handled NC St.
I do agree with Jefe that there are several teams in not just the SEC, but also other conferences that would probably be able to get through FSU and Clemson's schedules with one loss.
Just looking at the BCS standings + Ohio St, probably at least half the teams could have one loss with either team's schedule at this point. Clemson and FSU are solid teams and I don't doubt that, but after that, there is nothing. There's not even a homer writer or coach throwing anyone a courtesy vote not named FSU or Clemson.

FSU is such a joke. To be relevant, you have to play top talent at non conference schools in addition to a tough conference schedule. Win or loose, you garner respect that way. Georgia has faced the number the two team in the nation at the time Florida, the number 6 team in the nation at that time South Carolina, and will face most likely face the number 2 team in the nation in Alabama. We sec fans may hate our rivals with a passion but there is one thing we can all agree on... We are all heads and shoulders above fsu. Ole miss, Vanderbilt and Mississippi State would give FSU a run for their money and at least have a chance against y'all. You want to be the best, you have to play the best. Plain and simple.

Gotcha. UA, LSU, UF, UGA, SC, and ATM is a good start. Which 2 on Clemson's schedule to date beats them? Add Vandy, MSU, UM and UT. I just don't see any way at least 6 of those aren't 10 - 1 with several being 11-0.

They've set up this self-fulfilling prophecy, where the excuse for the pathetic OOC is that they don't want to get too banged up for the SEC. Then SEC play comes around and they lose a game or three, and their argument is "we'll it's because the SEC is so much harder than every other conference." Nobody can prove otherwise because nobody has played an SEC team OOC.
Saban and Les are the only guys with enough cojones to schedule a tough OOC opponent, but the other schools ride the coat tails and wave the banner of the SEC.
Gets annoying after a while.

You sure about that? Or are you just talking out of your ass like you do in every post I have ever seen you write? Because I can prove you wrong very easy

Yeah sure... Not like Georgia came off a losing season and scheduled Boise State or anything..... Sure sounds like riding coat tails.
