Alabama is arrogant and they have earned it.
Nevertheless conference is conference
I see to many smackers talking the sec down if bama looses
Plus I'm still not over that march through Georgia thing

ROLL TIDE!

This is SEC country now, baby!

Not only does a Bama win help the strength of the conference, but IMHO a visible SEC win in Texas does nothing but help our recruiting. The more kids want to play in the best conference in America, the more leverage we have over other in-state schools.

Michigan winning in the Sugar Bowl was a fluke. Not certain how a team that didn't even play in its conference championship game even got into a BCS game. That being said, Va Tech gave that game away. With that win, Michigan and their fans now think they are "back". I suspect 'Bama will bring them back down to earth very quickly.

you're absolutely right.

i feel the same way about WVU. played an absolute garbage schedule and clemson laid down after that fumble return.

WVU isn't a top 20 team.

If I do happen to root for Bama I am not going to say that.

I am not hoping for a yankee team to beat anyone in the SEC. Sorry. Hope the Tide beats the ever living heck out of them.

I don't pull for SEC teams that are playing against OOC teams because of some percieved "SEC family" garbage. I pull for SEC teams because it reinforces the national perception that the SEC is the toughest conference, and thus makes my team look better from a national viewpoint.

The fans of the other conferences, and even some of the media are getting tired of the SEC being portrayed as the best conference around (even though it currently is true). If SEC starts losing their OOC games, then it won't be long until the current viewpoint changes in the media. If that happens, then I could definitely see an SEC team getting shafted out of a BCSCG spot and/or playoff spot in the future.

Novat- Bama didn't play in the SEC championship game, so I'm not sure why you're complaining about UM making a BCS bowl.

Hit the nail on the head. Wish more people would realize this. You don't have to sing kumbayah with your conference rivals, but them doing well OOC is ultimately in your best interest.

That's absurd. You literally want the SEC to lose all their OOC games? I don't get the logic...

Why? So the SEC can be seen as a weak a$$ conference and so you can be passed over by a school from another conference to go to a BCS bowl? Sounds logical.

From a purely selfish, Aggie standpoint, how on earth is Alabama losing to Michigan helpful? I assume you want Alabama to lose all their non-conference games too, right? Then if we beat them how impressive will that be? About like beating baylor. Ok, less impressive than beating baylor.

Look at the big picture folks. The Big 12 thinking was largely a leftover from the SWC thinking. All based on too many schools recruiting against each other in too small a geographic region. Now we have our own region (with admitted overlap) but we are the ONLY SEC school in Texas. We *can* and *should* pull for the other SEC schools in OOC games. It is GOOD for US!

I have a 25 year old seething hatred for LSU, but like every other SEC school I hope they win all of their OOC games.

So.... do i take Michigan and the 11 pts or go with 'Bama to cover?

Thinking I'm gonna take the points, Bama isn't exactly high flying offense.

93 explained it to me. I agree that it's probably better for Bama to win. But don't think it will be the blow out many think it will..

annie88,

The day the B1G writes a check to A&M for roughly 20 million or so a year then I can see your point but this is not the way it works. When Bama wins, A&M gets paid, so you root for Bama. Georgia caught hell last season for losing to Boise State and then Michigan State. Looks bad on the rest of the conference and hurts the revenue / exposure which is where the value comes from.

The 2 conferences you always want the SEC to beat are the B1G and PAC because they are the ones who will call you ignorant cheating bigots and it gets old pretty quick. Ohio State and Souther Cal are the worst offenders in college football and never encourage them. the only thing they need is constant beatings to reinforce that they are not as good as they think they are.

I hope bama beats the dog crap out of the Michigan Meatheads That way the big 10 is out of the championship picture. The Ohio state cockeyes and the Penn state pedofiles are already out of the race. Damn that conference is more embarrassing than the big12.

KM - Alabama is such a high-profile team that a loss by them to UM is not going to make advertisers pull out of commercials or sponsorships. And it's certainly not going to impact an SEC TV deal.
