1-4 in the “marquee” match ups. Georgia prevents the goose egg.
Primarily bc the SEC dominated the bowl season for so long where a .500 SEC team would beat a B10/B12/PAC/ACC team that finished 2-5th in their conference.I'm not sure why we include unranked sec teams in bigtime matchups.
We don't do this for other conferences. If so, let's ding every non ranked acc, big 12 and big 10 team that lost to a ranked team every weekend.
2 and 3, not 1 and 4. They were 1 and 1 in games against comparable "seeds" from other conferences (Georgia v. Clemson, LSU v. USC) and our worst team defeated a supposed upper half ACC team. In the other games, excepting South Carolina nearly laying an egg, the SEC absolutely drilled midmajor and FSC opposition. Of course, that's to be expected, but it wasn't always the case elsewhere, including Oregon.
Yeah. I read that in the last edition of HorseShit Weeklyconference pride=southern pride. At least in the SEC.
My bad…typo should have read 1-3.2 and 3, not 1 and 4. They were 1 and 1 in games against comparable "seeds" from other conferences (Georgia v. Clemson, LSU v. USC) and our worst team defeated a supposed upper half ACC team. In the other games, excepting South Carolina nearly laying an egg, the SEC absolutely drilled midmajor and FSC opposition.

You should upgrade to dogshit weekly. Much better comic strips.Yeah. I read that in the last edition of HorseShit Weekly
I would still include the Vanderbilt game. Even if they aren't marquee, it was still a P4 OOC game, against a dark horse ACC playoff contender.My bad…typo should have read 1-3.

How did the SEC go 1-4 in marquee matchups. When the conference went 13-3 overall. The only 3 losses being Texas A&M, Florida & LSU.
Against absolute dog crap teams. Heck we probably played the best cupcake of them all and still it wasn’t much of a competition beyond the first quarter.We opened the first week going 13-3. Along the way scoring 76, 73, 70, 69, 63, 56, points just to name a few. I’ll take that as a success.
We have different definitions for “marquee”. I dont think Vandy has played in a marquee game in a long long time.I would still include the Vanderbilt game. Even if they aren't marquee, it was still a P4 OOC game, against a dark horse ACC playoff contender.
I’m a Kentucky fan…? Because someone points out data doesn’t make them biased even if you don’t like the data…How did your ACC do?

Let me repeat…we as a conference opened up the season by going 13-3. Losses to ranked teams certainly not embarrassing. Clemson picked to finish fairly high in the ACC got pounded by Georgia.Against absolute dog crap teams. Heck we probably played the best cupcake of them all and still it wasn’t much of a competition beyond the first quarter.
Vandy gets props for beating VT. That’s a football town for sure.
Napier is done at UF barring a huge turnaround. He was taking shots at fans today. Basically saying “we’re not gonna listen to the noise” and “fans in basements in Centrsl Florida”. Sounds very very familiar to another coach that was on his way out…..
LSU shouldn’t have lost to USC who’s is decent but picked fifth in the Big 10. Kelly’s seat is warming up for sure.
A&M lost to a very good ND. So I’m not to bothered by that.
As for the “weird conference pride” thing. Well, ask the ACC how that’s going for them. Or the PAC-12. Having your conference be the best keeps it from falling apart and keeps the money rolling in.
That’s great, but consider the quality of competition. UGA is the only one they beat anyone of merit.Let me repeat…we as a conference opened up the season by going 13-3. Losses to ranked teams certainly not embarrassing. Clemson picked to finish fairly high in the ACC got pounded by Georgia.
Don’t worry , You’ll grow up somedayYeah. I read that in the last edition of HorseShit Weekly
I dunno.....BC is taking it to FSU right now.....Too early for all of this really. Preseason ranking matchups are not a good gauge for teams or conferences. With that being said, the ACC sucks.![]()
LSU always starts slow, they will be good by the end of the year like always.2 and 3, not 1 and 4. They were 1 and 1 in games against comparable "seeds" from other conferences (Georgia v. Clemson, LSU v. USC) and our worst team defeated a supposed upper half ACC team.
