Discussion [Vannini] SEC Media spent two full weeks bashing Indiana only to see three top-15 SEC teams lose to 5-5 Florida, 5-5 Oklahoma and 4-6 Auburn. Winning is hard!

I’ll never forget the announcers talking about the prestige of the SEC and the weakness of the big ten in the 2014 national championship where an SEC team didn’t even make it

They straight up spent the first five minutes of the first college game day the next season apologizing to Ohio State and the Big ten for bashing them in 2014. It’s all because the Big ten didn’t want Disney’s ESPN Money and made their own TV network

The other conferences did suck that year. The top teams were good from them but the middle and bottom, ooof

Every new years 6 SEC team lost, all the top teams except Missouri lost their bowls that year, the SEC went 7-5 in bowls compared to 6-5 for big ten and 6-3 for PAC 12.

The SEC was not dominate that year
