If the Buckeyes can beat the Spartans in the Big Ten Championship Game (which I think is a 50-50 proposition), then we will likely get the OSU-FSU matchup I've been hoping for.

So how much are you willing to wager?

-HooDooKoo

I think Ohio state is pretty fortunate that they are 1) playing a big ten championship game(new) and 2) that their opponent is respectable(as respectable as you can be as a big ten team) because that may just keep them ahead of a 1 loss SEC championship team(auburn because missouri has no chance to jump an undefeated) even though you know I believe that whoever the sec champ is they are better than Ohio State.

Despite Florida's unsurprising loss to FSU, Vanderbilt's win over Wake Forest, Georgia defeating Georgia Tech, and South Carolina's (Validation?) victory over Clemson the SEC has pushed its non-conference record to 49-8 in 2013.

Well done SEC!!!!



Also not one non-conference loss from my list above!!

 

[kmbpoker]

You cannot be serious!! at least 5 teams in the SEC this year would be undefeated in the Big Ten, Pac-12, Big 12, And probably the ACC for god sake at least act like you know a little bit about college football.

rofl at least 5 lmao bama was suppost to be the best of the sec and couldnt even beat auburn, lmao 5 rofl i challange you to even name 1 without blushing now. please act like you know at least a little bit about football. 5 roflmao

49 - 8 the real question is with the quality of their non conference schedule how in the world did they lose 8. the 8 losses show how weak the sec is rather than the wins against teams who would lose to good high school teams. the only well done they deserve is for making sure they schedule only the weakest of the weakest. and still lose 8 thats awful.

 

[kmbpoker]

One other thing I forgot to mention is that a 1 loss SEC team would only have to jump 1 undefeated because baylor will not end up undefeated and well lets face it Ohio State being undefeated means nothing as the Big Ten is by far the weakest conference of the ones we are discussing here.

ok clearly you know nothing of football. DUKE is going to the ACC championship game.DUKE HELLOOOOOOOOOOO the weakest in the country is clearly the acc and you act like they are 1 of the best . you really need to get a grip on reality. the acc reality is that it is soooooo bad that DUKE is going to the ACC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME . GOOOOO DUKE

my list stands for itself they only lose to each other.

The 8 losses came from Florida, Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, and Georgia the teams on the bottom of the conference. but feel free to post other conferences records as well as the strength of their non conference schedule but it won't compare.

Personally I don't think any of the other conferences are strong the only reason the ACC even gets a little credit is because FSU is the ONLY non SEC team in the country who could even be competitive and if they end up playing Ohio State they will destroy them because the Big Ten is just embarrassing.

Much easier to win it when the preseason polls dictate that you get a shot to play in it every year. All you had to do was look at the preseaon poll this year to see how the system is set up to ensure an SEC rep in the title game. 5 of the top 10 this year were from the SEC including WAY overrated Georgia and Florida with an overerated LSU at 13. So when an mediocre SEC team beats an overrated SEC team the mediocre team instantly jumps to being overrated and the cycle repeats until the SEC champ is guaranteed their title shot.

Missori has had the easiest schedule imaginable and lost the only real team they faced all season. There is zero chance they would be undefeated in those other conferences.

LSU would have multiple loses in the other conferences. SC has also lost to every team worth a damn on their schedule including UT! They'd never make it either. A&M likely loses too, at least in the PAC10 and ACC.

Honestly I think outside of Alabama the SEC is very down this season. I do think Alabama is VERY good. My great hope however is for Auburn to beat them and then we'll see just how corrupt the system is as they try to get the SEC champ in the title game with 1 loss over 3 undefeated teams. Likely won't happen though because Alabama's defense will probably crush Auburn and they'll get a deserved spot in the title game.

well said. seems like this section found at least 1 football fan and not just a regional fan. personally being a gambler i have no yearly team i root for but i do like to make early picks and put small wagers at long odds . sadly 1 cannot do that in college football anymore because the bcs is so corrupt, agreed that the tide has 1 of the best teams this year but a standout number 1 they are not. osu is on a remarkable run and deserves a shot at the title i hope the politics do not rob them of their well deserved chance at it

I love how you answer other posts but keep ignoring mine. You're clearly too scared to bet against me on the BCS Championship Game, so why don't you just say so?

If the Buckeyes do their job and beat Sparty next week (which, IMO, is a BIG "if"), they will got their shot in the BCS Championship Game --- where they will get ANNIHILATED by FSU. I'm praying for an OSU win, as there is a ton of money to be made if we get this matchup.

Have fun watching that asshole Meyer's group get embarrassed.

Call me what you will but kinda funny that those whose job it is to know college football (ie: Broadcasters, Coaches, and sportswriters) all agree that the SEC is by far the best conference.

Just wanted to come late to this thread to say Holy War Eagle that was a fantastic weekend of college football. Best of my memory! Loved Thanksgiving and the football only made it better

I do think the SEC is currently the best overall confernce in the country but you have to remember that all of those people you named (other than coaches who don't follow people they don't play) have a vested interest in pushing the SEC agenda. When ESPN pays 2.7 BILLION to show your games you can be damn sure their talking heads are going to try to promote you as the best regardless. When your fans buy the most papers, you can bet that the preseason mags are going to say lots of nice things. In other words there is a lot of dollars to be made by trying to ensure that lots of SEC teams are highly ranked preseason and that an SEC team is in the title game. I don't trust the media to promote the best teams at the expense of the teams that make them the most money.

If there were no polls before say week 6 we wouldn't have nearly the issue we do now but the polls equal $$s and so does over promoting the SEC.

ok so fsu gets to play in the championship game against a team from the sec with no defense i dont remember all the scores but their points allowed got to be close to a couple hundred in just their last four games. if fsu is actually any good at all they should win this, but since it is their 1st game of the season against a team who has beaten anybody worth mentioning they may not be ready even if they are any good. the most interesting thing to me looking at the bowl schedule is that the ALMIGHTY SEC may not win a single bowl game this year , wouldnt that be special

I am not even gonna talk about the championship game because I think it will actually be a good match up although I do think Auburn's brutal schedule will serve it well and help them to victory. However the bolded statement above will never ever happen. In fact I am so sure I will wager something that means more to me than you may realize. If the SEC loses every bowl game(out of 10 games which is wow that out of 14 teams 10 are in bowl games) I will never ever play another game of poker in my life. That means not another CC freeroll or buy-in, Not another league game, not another live tourney at the dog track, hell not even another home game. That is wagering something I find very important without even the possibility of gaining a thing that is how ridiculous I find the statement.


edit: actually I don't think I should wager something so valuable without a chance to gain something so I will take the wager only if you agree if the SEC wins more bowl games than they lose you will put in your CC Sig that the SEC is the best football conference there has ever been and keep it there for a full year.

If your intention was not to talk about the championship game, then this was an epic fail. Also, it's SHOCKING that the world's biggest SEC homer thinks that Auburn will win the championship game (that you aren't talking about). When Auburn doesn't win, I'm sure you'll have some excuse ready so you can dismiss the result.

Having said that, I hope that kmbpoker takes you up on some kind of wager. You're clueless but harmless. kmb is clueless but thinks he knows everything about everything --- even when you offer evidence that clearly contradicts his belief. Because of this, I'll support the SEC in their bowl games (except the game you aren't talking about).

Good luck.

lol thats funny right there i dont care who you are. clearly i was just mouthing off the odds of them losing all of them are obviously against that happening, and though i believe as weak as the sec was this year that they will most likely lose more bowls than they win , i could never print such horrid lie on my CC sig . so since the chance is remote that they will actually lose them all your poker life is safe because i will not make a bet i cannot pay if in the unlikely event i should lose , besides if the long odds prevailed and they did lose them all i would never forgive myself from being the cause of someone having a life long ban from poker

and just so you know i will be rooting for auburn simply because they earned the right to play in it whereas fsu played nobody oh wait a minute they did have to play duke my bad.rofl so good luck in the championship game

Why would I come up with an excuse? I have maintained the entire time that FSU was the ONE team that could end the SEC's reign so no excuse necessary just hats off the the champs. However the reason I made the statement about winning because of the tough schedule they endured was because I have seen it before. Flashback to 2007 The Ohio State Buckeyes come in undefeated, virtually untested and thought unbeatable, but a battle tested Florida team crushed them.

The moral of the story is that if you don't think playing tough teams almost every week prepares you better for a big championship game than a cupcake schedule does then you are naive but I suspect you know that and are just jerking my chain.

 

[grilldoggy]

FSU is stacked

FSU schooled the BCS in recruiting, and they are in the right conference to go undefeated.

 

[kmbpoker]

this is great the sec cant cover a spread and making a ton in reno . got 16 1/2 for the bama game and 1 1/2 with ok state for a clean sweep

Classic!! can't talk shit about a 5-1 record so far so lets make a snide remark on not winning by enough lol. and don't make comments on CAN'T cover the spread as we are still 3-3 against the spread.


Would like to add though that I am glad you are making money as I root for anyone against the house.

Looks like your gravy train hit the skids. Nice call on the SEC, as you said they might get shut out and they're having a good showing --- as usual. Your SEC theory was almost as accurate as your "online poker" is rigged" theory.

Nice call on Ohio State, too. Clemson, who was CRUSHED by FSU, just beat OSU on a neutral field. An FSU vs. OSU matchup would have been over at halftime.

I'll acknowledge it the first time you get something right here. I'm still waiting for that to happen, though ...

Good luck, and be well, rigtard.

Well he was right on Alabama.

I hope he was right on Alabama. Anyone laying 17 points on a neutral field in a BCS Bowl is squarer than square. That game was "dog or pass" incarnate.

[grilldoggy]

Most impressive BCS victory was scored by Oklahoma. The Sooners looked like NC contenders. Really impressed though with Alabama's running back, Derrick Henry. Look for the big guy to have a huge 2014 campaign.
