Conference football in college is starting to look really


Dec 4, 2013, 11:06 PM

dumb to me. We all know, you're only as good as your competition and if y'all can't admit that we are lacking in that aspect then you are delusional.

The business has changed and the product has changed. Find a new way to play out the big games because the current system doesn't work.

Said and said again. Sorry for being repetitive.

I am a USC fan...so you can take this with a grain of salt...

SEC is best in football
ACC is best in basketball

SEC and ACC are the best in baseball (you guys are lacking CWS championships but generally ACC baseball is very good)

The gap between SEC and ACC in football is smaller than in recent years.

Florida is not what it used to be. Neither is Tenn.

But what you are saying is true (about the ACC being top heavy).

Really I only see 2 teams in the ACC that would do well year in and year out in the SEC in football: Clemson and FSU.

A few years ago, when the whole conference shake up occurred I really wanted Clemson to come to the SEC and join USC and Georgia in the East. You know it would have been a lot of fun.

All this being said...it is cyclical.

SEC is on top now, but despite what my SEC brethren may say...it will not stay this way forever.

Also further into your point...

NCAA needs to go away, and money has become a problem in college athletics.

Too many rivalries have been squashed due to swapping conferences.

I know USC and Clemson "hate" each other. But we also have successfully pushed each other to higher goals.

It is not coincidence that often the "best schools (speaking athletics only) often have an in state rivalry or a close rival that pushes them.

FSU/Miami/Fla
Bama/Auburn
Southern Cal/Stanfrod
USC/Clemson
OSU/Michigan
