    The BIG12 is better than the SEC this year from top to bottom.Nobody can look at the schedules and wins and say OSU's isn't better than Alabama's.


    What make you think the Big 12 is better than the SEC this season? People think this kind on non sense every season, and are ALWAYS proven wrong.

    first off, i will address the second part... IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT I THINK WILL HAPPEN... that is a 100% moot point... this is not about who people THINK will provide a better game... this is ONLY about who DESERVES TO BE THERE BASED ON THEIR BODY OF WORK!


    now, onto the first part... i think you know you are stepping into a big problem here... i bet i can find no less than 100 examples of the following, in this year's CFB season...


    Team A beats Team B
    Team B beats Team C
    Team C beats Team A


    that is sports, man!  and that doesn't prove shit!

    however, since you brought it up...



    Arkansas beat Tx A&M at home by 4 points... Arkansas is #3 in the SEC, Tx A&M is #3 in the SEC... home field is generally considered to be worth 3.5 to 4 points...

    based on this, on a neutral field, these teams are DEAD EVEN!


    so... if the #3 teams in the SEC and Big 12 are dead even... we continue down the ladder, and what we find is that the SEC drops off the face of the earth after #4 So Carolina... while the Big 12 goes about 7 or 8 deep...

    depth is the issue here...



    um, needless to say... you did not make me look like and asshat, and as i've already said (and backed it up), you cannot win this argument against me...


    YOU CANNOT!

    oh oh oh how WRONG you are... last year, and the year before, and the year before that... i was ALL about how overrated the Big 12 is...


    i have bet ON the SEC in 4 of the last 5 NC games... the Big 12 is usually extremely overrated...

    i think the Big 12 is better than the SEC because i have eyes and a brain... that are both open to what has happened THIS YEAR... and doesn't give a shit what has happened in past years...

    oh oh oh how WRONG you are... last year, and the year before, and the year before that... i was ALL about how overrated the Big 12 is...


    i have bet ON the SEC in 4 of the last 5 NC games... the Big 12 is usually extremely overrated...

    i think the Big 12 is better than the SEC because i have eyes and a brain... that are both open to what has happened THIS YEAR... and doesn't give a shit what has happened in past years...

    explain to me what an Auburn team with Cam Newton and 14 other starters who are no longer playing for them, has to do with this year?  like i said... the very fact that you needed to try to sneak that into your argument is ROCK SOLID proof of how weak your argument is...

    you have NOTHING!

    When did Auburn play Oregon this year? 

    Also, Miss St. didn't beat LaTech.
     
    Should I look through all your results to see if you are BSing anymore?  Doesn't matter, there isn't exactly any big wins there anyways, even if they did sweep the board.  I'm curious how many of those games where true road games also?

    well done!  like i said, there are at least 100 of these scenarios that can be drummed up... it is generally considered one of the WORST ways that you can try to handicap a sporting event...

    one of the purposes of this thread was to expose as frauds anybody who attempted to refute this argument... i feel very strongly i have done so with both Laroja (aka UMADBRO) and Tapioca... hopefully other people see it, too, as you do...

    that's horseshit!  you can't have it both ways...


    which is EXACTLY why i looked at the entire body of work... and THAT is how you really measure up two teams...



    in logic, you take your argument to the extreme, if you want to test it and find out whether or not it is valid...

    let's take your argument to the extreme... what if Alabama played Sun Belt teams the entire year, with a game against LSU sprinkled right in the middle... they would still only have 1 loss to LSU... would they still get to use your argument?

    so the question becomes, where is the line at which that argument completely falls apart?  and the answer is... it falls apart as soon as you can take it to the extreme and see that it falls apart...

    you cannot kill the OSU argument in the same manner... as long as we have a situation with two 1-loss teams... my argument remains valid at both ends of the spectrum, but yours does not!
    Ill tell u why it matters who u lost to,caus eu lost to freakin IOWA ST after having a 17 point lead and not only that u only beat A& M by a point and what are they like the 5th or 6th best team in the BIG !2 with 10 Teams While Alabama has beaten everyone by at least 16 points and lost by 3 to number 1 team in nation in OT quite simply there is no comparision when talking bout these teams Alabama is better period i dont care who the better conference is it really dont matter its not relavent its about teams not conferences what dont u understand about that

    It looks bad this season because LSU and Bama have dominated everyone.. From top to bottom. there is no other conference out there that can compete.

    now, onto the first part... i think you know you are stepping into a big problem here... i bet i can find no less than 100 examples of the following, in this year's CFB season...


    Team A beats Team B
    Team B beats Team C
    Team C beats Team A


    that is sports, man!  and that doesn't prove shit!

    however, since you brought it up...



    Arkansas beat Tx A&M at home by 4 points... Arkansas is #3 in the SEC, Tx A&M is #3 in the SEC... home field is generally considered to be worth 3.5 to 4 points...

    based on this, on a neutral field, these teams are DEAD EVEN!


    so... if the #3 teams in the SEC and Big 12 are dead even... we continue down the ladder, and what we find is that the SEC drops off the face of the earth after #4 So Carolina... while the Big 12 goes about 7 or 8 deep...

    depth is the issue here...



    um, needless to say... you did not make me look like and asshat, and as i've already said (and backed it up), you cannot win this argument against me...


    YOU CANNOT!

    so is that what the BCS system is all about?  not about who deserves to be there, but who is just better?  that is the crux of your argument?

    once again... exposed!

    They played them for the national title this year... I am not saying it factors in to the team that auburn is this season vs the team oregon is this season, but it did technically happen this year. 

    Also, yes Miss St did beat them... https://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/teams/mmq/schedule

    Guess you are the one looking pretty dumb here...

    Doesn't matter what kind of wins they are.... They are the SEC vs the rest and it proves that the SEC is once again, dominant.

    Should I look through all your results to see if you are BSing anymore?  Doesn't matter, there isn't exactly any big wins there anyways, even if they did sweep the board.  I'm curious how many of those games where true road games also?

    They played them for the national title this year... I am not saying it factors in to the team that auburn is this season vs the team oregon is this season, but it did technically happen this year. 

    Also, yes Miss St did beat them... https://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/teams/mmq/schedule

    one of the purposes of this thread was to expose as frauds anybody who attempted to refute this argument... i feel very strongly i have done so with both Laroja (aka UMADBRO) and Tapioca... hopefully other people see it, too, as you do...

    I just proved him wrong, and by agreeing with him further proves my point of how idiotic you are. LOL! Nice job... You are so delusional.
