[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 818261, member: 2426"] In the BCS era, the SEC worked the hype into the format and they were all but guaranteed a team in the championship no matter what. In one year, they got two teams in the championship even though the game that those two teams had already played that year was among the most boring games I have ever seen. Literally just being in the SEC with the SEC hype train improved the chances of getting into the game. If one out of two teams in the MNC game is from the SEC every year, they will automatically have a good chance of winning more than others. Alabama IS the only perennial great team in the SEC. Auburn is one of the four that you allude to. Two years after their national championship, they were 0-8 in the SEC. They have been up and down and up and down. LSU is one of those teams that you allude to. They split a MNC with Saban (who is now running Alabama), they won with Miles, and they won with Orgeron. Other than those years they are a 9 win team. Florida is one of those teams. Since Meyer left, they have had a couple of 11 win seasons along with a couple of 4 win seasons. There are zero other teams in the SEC that have the recent pedigree that Alabama has. The SEC is: Alabama and one or two good teams. Who those other good teams are rotates around a lot. [/QUOTE]
