Humidity averages 74% in September. Bama beat USC 52-6.

I don’t have it handy. But I’ve been to games as a spectator and it was rough. Would be good to get the dates … maybe they did? I still remember Brian Bosworth passing out his first day at Falcon ‘s training camp.

Well, two things and I know SOWEGA is going to explode. First, Sankey is the SEC Commish and yes, he advocated strongly that an SEC team should be in the playoffs. That’s what he is supposed to do. Second, the bs about the player being out is understood when you read the CFP‘s goal … it is not...

Let’s come back to it. I’m eager to watch Oklahoma play in Tuscaloosa with 90% humidity.

If you don’t take Meyer seriously, just turn the sound down.

Saban had already coached LSU to a national championship before he got to Tuscaloosa. Auburn’s Harsin got fired of course, but after his first year, said he had never seen a team get manhandled the way he saw the Dawgs do it to the Tigers. This from a 10 win guy for a number of years. I don’t...

Let’s make a GTSwarm rule that we won’t consider anyone reliable who ever played or coached college football on any level.

Somewhat true, somewhat. Alabama’s recruiting message for 17 years has been, “Give me 4 years and you will get to the League and its 80% that you will be drafted in the first two rounds and make $30 million.” The NFL does all sorts of tests, by position, for strength, agility, speed, etc. If...

The media takes Sankey’s call because there is demand (ratings) for his organization’ product. It‘s that simple.

Last time I checked, Steve Sarkisian is the Texas HC and coached as OC in the SEC. I wonder if he took any of that to Texas?

The ACC is not sinking. Its generating more revenue than it ever has, it’s just doing so at a slower growth rate. The ACC is not going to overtake either of the P2 conferences. Which means it’s going to have define itself for what it is. You have a group of mostly smaller, urban schools...

The media narrative is not going to shift. Why would it? The media is targeting a message to its largest segment … which is what it is supposed to do. As to the ACC, you advertise to message your point of differentiation and why it represents good value. The SEC has owned “path to the League”...

He’s spot on. Oklahoma emphasizes offense, not defense and they are about to meet teams that have better defenses. Not what they were ten years ago, but better than what OK is used to.

I think it’s the other way around. Better talent enabled better marketing.

Here's a little thought experiment. Instead of looking solely at wins (because what does Wake beating Vandy really tell us), let's look at who the NFL drafts from and how it's distributed. The table below represents the Top 80% of all players drafted in the 2024 NFL draft and lists the number of...

I agree with 100% of this. The SEC does a better job of managing the preseason rankings and as a result, is more likely to have teams in the playoffs. I think it's smart on their part. And it is not new. Johnny Vaught did this back in the 1950s. The ACC deliberately does not and there's a...

SEC Derangement Syndrome ... no known cure. :ROFLMAO:

So let's restate it to ... "I hate my wife and want to divorce her so I can have sex with the better than average chick next door who also has a trust fund."

To be fair to Meyer (who I respect, but loathe) ... he was an SEC coach, a B1G coach, and a B12 coach, and a mid-America coach. But because he coached in the SEC, he's infected with the disease. Maybe he is just experienced? I suppose Kaylon Deboer is now infected? A lot of these posts, if they...
