Touche.

I should have said you can't win in a real conference like the SEC without recruiting at an elite level.

Gimmick teams can win in weak conferences like the Big 10 and Big 12.

Mizzou won in the sorry ass East twice

Word? I didn't know the SEC east was a conference?

You said "win in the SEC" you didn't say "Win the SEC"

Aight

Auburn has top 10 recruiting classes every year.

The debate was over teams who win even when they don't recruit well.

You'll never see a team outside the top 20 nationally in recruiting win the SEC.

That happens routinely in almost every other conference (props to the ACC for being the only other conference where elite recruiting actually matters).

Is Auburn a gimmick team yes or no

 

[RammerJammer]

Y'all remember this goofy mf Matt Jones?



Those forgotten 2000s College Football stars...

 

[Swagnificent]

Is Auburn a gimmick team yes or no

Yes.

Which is why they're a joke half the time.

 

[RammerJammer]

Is Auburn a gimmick team yes or no

I'll answer cause he's gonna move goalposts like he's a Tornado, but yes, Auburn is a gimmick.

 

[smitty22]

Yes.

Which is why they're a joke half the time.

So Gimmick teams can win the sec too huh?

 

[Swagnificent]

You said "win in the SEC" you didn't say "Win the SEC"

Semantics.

Then change it to win the SEC. I said repeatedly the only reason Mizzou won the east is cause it was down.

With Tennessee and Florida back, you see Missouri being reduced to a joke. Same with South Carolina that was also not a great program.

2010-2014 was a dark era for the east.

 

[Silkk]

Not to mention Petrino at Arkansas, Mullen at Miss St, James Franklin at Vandy.


But it's all about talent and not coaching

When they have Cam Newton? Hell yeah.

We could probably put Cam on a pee wee team and he'd probably win most games in the Big 10.

Oh you mean the year they had 2 of the luckiest plays in sports history happen in back to back weeks?

Come on bruh. You better than this. You know 2013 Auburn was PURE LUCK.

I don't even count them as the 2013 sec champs. That would be Alabama.

That was the classic asterisk team. One who won based on PURE LUCK.

If Bama was so much better than them that year, Luck shouldnt have played a part. Swag living in his own world. I bet in your world Tennessee win the chip every year
