Thats the big argument this year. The Big 12 does have some great offensive teams. But look at there defenses. Every conference game that is played the scores are up there on both sides. The defense is what the SEC is known for. I think if the SEC was to play the Big 12 the games would be close. I don't see the Big 12 scoring 40+ points on a SEC defense. I find it funny that when the SEC had 4 teams in the top 10 and they played each other the loser dropped down 8-10+ spots. When the Big 12 had 4-5 teams in the top 10 and they played each they are only falling a few spots. wtf? I still believe year in and year out the SEC is the strongest conference.

I'm not so sure. Id take a high power offensive team over a strong defense. Look at the superbowl few years ago, Oakland Raiders had the #1 defense that year and they got killed by I think New England(not 100% on the team). Defense aint everything, especially when your offense can put up 40+ points on any given Saturday. I would not be surprised if the Big 12 puts up big point in the title game against a SEC team

Like I said the SEC is having a off year. The SEC really sucks this year compared to the BIG 12. The BIG 12 is the better conf this year. I know the defense isn't everything but if the BIG 12 teams were better on defense you wouldn't see the high scoring games. I don't think there is a BIG 12 team thats could beat Florida this year.

I was on my way back from Alexandria and went through Tuskaloosa...cops were TERRIBLE...as soon as I crossed over the state line of Alabama I saw cop after cop after cop after cop. I saw atleast 12cars pulled over in a 3mile stretch...

Back on subject...Florida vs. Alabama in the SEC game should be very interesting...I always pull for SEC in the end no matter what team gets into the championship...yes even UGA

I think if Les would have pulled Lee sooner it wouldn't have been so close, but at least he did pull him by half time.

He has some great recruiting classes for sure. The LSU game was a joke this weekend. I give them credit for coming back to win but to be losing to Troy like that sucks. Now that I think about it, didn't Troy give Ohio St all they could handle to?

You cant count Auburn out yet. And it looks like FL will be thier biggest problem. That game will be huge with #1 and #3 playin to make it to the BCS Championship. Im going to take a guess and say they beat AU by a TD and lose to FL.
