[QUOTE="Bruce Wayne, post: 119141, member: 231"] That guy Mark May was a total hack after the OB. After the game when it was pointed out that the SEC West had a terrible day he attempted to correct it by saying "the State of Mississippi had a terrible day" and then went on to clearly reduce the SEC to the mythical national championship wins of the past 7 of 8 years and simply Alabama. So we are supposed to accept the ESPN b.s. narrative that the SEC is the best conference this year from day one but when the ACC sweeps the SEC East on the final day it changes to "SEC West is best division by far" and you can just drop out [I]half [/I]the conference and still claim [I]SEC [/I]dominance. Then when LSU, Ole Miss and MSU get beat you can drop out the state of Mississippi and [I]still [/I]claim SEC dominance? Bad propaganda is so embarrassing and counter-productive. So what say you now Mark May when Alabama gets beat by a third string true freshmen QB making his second career start from a woeful little sisters of the poor conference like the Big10???? MLB and NFL, etc. go to [I]great [/I]lengths (profit sharing, salary caps, wild cards) to promote parity in their sports because they understand that it makes fiscal sense. I find it mind-boggling that ESPN can instead take such openly and vainly propagandistic approaches to trying to have a single dominant conference narrative for an entity they are heavily invested in like the SEC. Just as with the pro sports their particular products/interests in the SEC are best served by the health and attraction of the sport as a whole which will always be better served nationally by a reality of parity and the excitement of unknown and unpredictable outcomes.
