We have to beat LSU, Bama, Florida and Georgia to win the conference. And Arky would be elite as well if Bobby didn't get on that bike, so we lucked up with that one. And we played night games on the road @ both Kentucky and Vandy. Those are easy trap games. No other conference is fukking with that.

The first game of the year was a "trap" game? You were looking ahead to East Carolina? LOL, ahhh SEC fan logic

We were nationally ranked with high expectations, first game of the year at night in front of their pumped up crowd. Umm yes nikka.

LMAO...Baylor is not a top 25 team this year...Texas Tech is NOT good and a good team doesn't lose in Lubbock this year...TCU has been and currently is way overrated and not that good...Okie State is okay at best...this isn't a dominant OU team...just good...Iowa State is not that good...just because you can pull an upset every now and then doesn't make you good...and kansas is one of the worst teams in a BCS conference

it's so early in the season....let's see where these teams are at the end of the year before we make judgements on strength of schedule...because you seem to think way more highly of the Big 12 this year than I do...I think the league is mediocre this year just like it has been the past couple years.

 

[I'm Chillin]

I read the title wrong and thought we were talking about USC.. have they played a home game yet? seems like theyre always on the road

oh plz baylor is the exact same team it was last year and they ended up being ranked top 20

tcu is not overrated, their defense is young and the amount of injuries they are dealing with (first two rbs on teh depth chart injured), (starting qb pachall gone for the year), okie state is top 5 in putting points up they lost to texas on a td that should not have been a td, and lost to a arizona team, oklahoma isnt dominant? they went tinto lubbock and slaughtered texas tech, iowa state is 4-1 and they will prob beat kansas state this weekend who is ranked 6th

I mean we can go back and forth for the next few hours if you want...I finished my work, so I'm just sitting here waiting until 10:30 when I can leave. We have completely different opinions.

Baylor has to prove to me they're the same as last year...they've played a grand total of one team with a pulse and lost

TCU looks overrated to me...but you can't have it both ways with the injury argument...you said Mizzou sucks but ignore the fact they're missing 9 starters due to injury and have been playing with a back-up quarterback half the time and a banged up starting QB the other half of the time...so which is it?...you can't give one team a pass and not the other...I say injuries happen and both teams are show a lack of depth with means neither one is good

Okie State is a .500 football team right now and the Arizona team that slaughtered them is just 3-3 this year

OU isn't near as dominant as they have been...in what world is a 3-1 team who struggled with UTEP considered dominant? I'm not saying they aren't good...I'm saying their not as dominant as they usually are

Iowa State's a well coached team that will beat you if you make mistakes...Kansas State won't...K-State will beat Iowa State by double digits...ISU is **NOT** a hard win...it's just an easy loss if you overlook them.

as I said...we vary greatly on our opinions of the Big 12...but I'm not doing anything so if you want to keep at this argument we can keep going.

Say WV blows their in the regular season, will they have to play a fukking Bama to win the conference? My point is in how damn hard it is to win the SEC even if you are a really good team because you have to face a great team to win the conference.

 

[DaPresident]

Tough schedule...but it's the SEC, some of the best football in the nation.


SC will def earn that trip to Atlanta if they make it, lots of pitfalls and hurdles in that sched. Georgia, Fla, and LSU all in consecutive weeks? very tough

People don't realize that's just to GET to the CONFERENCE championship game where you have to win that and then no biggie...go WIN a national championship
