NCAA Football 2014 season

[Derwin0]

Even in a down year though, it appears that they almost have enough to hang with the cream of the ACC.

0 for 4 is hanging?

That is simply the only one i copied on that post. I copied others later. it is all in the link

Doesn't stop the picture you posted from being skewed very badly though.

The USC game aside are you saying that these games were handily won and not in question until late? Did they win any of them? No.

Could they have just as easily have won 3 of them? Yes.

 

[vurbano]

Easy ....

I just don't care for those that play games like you do ....
Maybe you should grow up and be an adult .... or are you really 12 ?

If you are 12, your well informed.

OMG! I always thought you were a staff member for some reason? That means I can simply click you off.
Good luck with your little season but I dont need the personal attacks.

Well, I assumed one would read the rest. lol My apologies.
But just look down two or three posts and I added a more rounded picture with the overall OOC p5 records of all the power 5. It shows the SEC in the lead by a large margin.

True, they all had a much better chnace than Alabama did in it's last couple Sugar Bowls

all kidding aside. Is the SEC the strongest? Yes, they have more stronger teams, and tend to have a stronger middle, with a slighly smaller share of bottom feeders. But they're actually down this year it seems.

The East is abissymal, period.

The Miss schools started strong and got lucky, but were exposed later in the season.
Alabama hasn't really dominated as they have in the past. Both Auburn & LSU have been scitofrenic this season.

While still strong, the SEC is not the power house it was 2-3 years ago.

I honestly think its that way across all of college football this season. There are several teams that have dominated games but there haven't been any dominant teams.

I hate it, the west coast mentality of score a bunch and hope the other team does'nt has infected everyone else, especially the SEC and BIG Ten where defense has been historically their strong suits.

Bamas run defense is still as strong as it usually is, but our pass defense is non existent. I'm not a fan either.

While a ton of points with both sides scoring is exciting. I prefer a defensive struggle. I know, many don't.

 

[Derwin0]

because then it would be boring

So bama, Oregon, TCU, and FSU falls to 4 in the latest ranking. I love that matchup.

Nor do I.
Personal or otherwise...
I take so much abuse from you, I may as well not be here, but some of the other guys are very educational and understand much better.
I don't get abused by everyone, just you a a few others.

Most here can have a civil conversation.

I do as well.

I find 60-57 games boring .... no one can play any defense.

They have changed the rules so bad that the Offense has all the pluses while the D is not even allowed to breath on a guy without a penalty.

 

[vurbano]

I think the committee has seen the light too late. FSU should have dropped a spot every week.

I think Bama will score defensive TDs on Winstons interceptions or grind them into TDs on offense.

so rankings are stupid? The arguement wasnt "this conference is better". The arguement was about all of the ranked ACC teams beating unranked SEC bottom feeders. Please Come back when GT beats Bama or LSU

You SEC fan boys have ALWAYS tooted the ole "SEC is better" horn since day one. That has ALWAYS been th

Georgia should have won IMO, so yes, they failed in their game. I agree.

The others however, should have not been close (one wasnt). They were on paper serious mismatches that should have been won handily be the best of the ACC (and one in the nation) against the lower 3rd of the SEC.

As it is, I dont think you would find any SEC fan here or otherwise that expected this past weekend to be better than 1-3, with the one expected but not a given.

Come on...you guys have been not only ranting about how great the conference was...at any given chance, no less...but also how the ACC's teams would even beat the lower tier and/or how the ACC teams would barely be lower tier teams.

This is what I mean.... the argument has been the same since day one.

Feel free to look. You will find plenty of times I've said that the sec is the strongest power 5 conference. Because they are. Look at the link i posted earlier.

You will find plenty of times that I've said that it is generally better top to bottom. Because they are. Past polls and head to head results back that up.

You will even find a time I've said the acc is weaker top to bottom than the other power 5. Again, reference the link I posted showing the head to head results.

But I've never made the argument you are saying has been made from day one.

So, like I said, I doubt you will find any SEC fan here or otherwise that expected this past weekend to be better than 1-3.
