LSU Tigers looked like the Harlem Globetrotters out there. Aggies looked stupefied and were quitting before it started. But a Texas team is yet another "southern team."
Alabama dismantled a decent BIG 10 school (this was most impressive but not surprising).
Arkansas nearly caught OSU sleeping in the 2nd H (outcoached and out-QB'd but still mad a game out of it). They looked better in defeat than OSU did in victory.
All the marbles now. The Big One is on Monday. Your Auburn Tigers will be wearing "Confederate Red and Blue and is the "Best Team in the SEC." You also have the "Best Player in College Football." You are favored to win. The SEC has won four in a row...and counting.
The physicality of the players coming from the southern states is almost an unfair breeding ground--and they are well-coached in their high schools. Cam Newton is an unbelievable specimen, and Nick Farley is unreal. Are they "superhuman?"

Auburn, Alabama, Florida, Arkansas...
But I believe Oregon can beat you at your own game (speed=physicality; passing and catching=physicality). Even if Oregon wins it, you have earned RESPECT.
The SEC will be right there again, and probably LSU the pre-season favorite to win it all in 2012 with most of their players coming back. LSU is my choice after getting my ass handed to me in the Cotton Bowl (I'm wearing wool right now).
But afterwards the nation would PLEASE like to see some more travelling from the SEC teams and showcase it to other regions. Come out west. Go up north. Stop hiding your "secrets" until Bowl season. You are "National Champions" so then ACT like it and showcase to the nation. Why has LSU, Florida, Alabama not been travelling?
This year Auburn scheduled, faced and trounced:
Arkansas State U.
Louisiana-Monroe U.
UT Chattanooga
...couldn't ONE of those games been against a Mtn West, PAC 10, BIG EAST or ACC team?
OREGON ML +125
I know it's yet another 'Civil War' with the "them Nawthenaws" from Oregon and your "Sawthen boys" in blue and red. But let's agree to keep it civil. It's just a football game.
