Suck our collective SEC d*ckz.

It's just kinda weird to me b/c it seems like some fans of SEC schools are all about the SEC. Like SEC first, school second. At least that is the perception I get from SCAR fans. Whereas Clemson fans don't really care about the ACC. Most feel the ACC just cares about basketball and more specifically Duke and UNC. Yet Clemson brings in the most money b/c football by far brings in the most money, and Clemson is responsible for a large chunk of that. So there is a lot of resentment for the people that run the ACC and the favoritism that Duke and Carolina seem to get.
I'm way more of a Mizzou fan than of the SEC. I just want to see the two best teams in the country play in the championship.
Agree. Last year was a joke. It'll probably be Oregon vs. Alabama, and that has potential to be one of the greatest games ever. It would be really neat to see Alabama's D vs. the Oregon O. It could end up looking similar to last year's game between Clemson and LSU, which came down the final seconds.

One game at a time though, so I (living vicariously through the team) need to focus on FSU. This game is gonna be tough, winner will be in the ACCCG. Even the loser, if that team wins out, has a good shot at a BCS bowl.

I have a friend that is this way. Even though he is from and lives in Kentucky, he is both a UK and a Tennessee fan, which I'm surprised he gets away with. On top of that, he has gear for every team in the SEC because he's more about the SEC than his favorite school. Hell, when I first met him, he was wearing a Bama hat.

Clemson brings in the most money? In what context? What do you base this on?

Meant to say they bring in a lot of money as football brings in the most money. A lot of it comes from the link below, but I fully acknowledge it's a Clemson fan site.

That's a horrible loss. I understand the injuries are a major issue but you can't lose to Vanderbilt especially if you are up 13 in the 4th Q. He's in big trouble.

I didn't watch the game, but Mike Pereira said this to what I assume you're referring to:

There is no "p" in Clemson pal. Also, unless your team is Bama, Oregon, or FSU, STFU. I'm pretty sure Clemson beat Auburn that last two times they played.

Total embarrassment last night.

Boyd, the running backs, the WRs, whatever, we were THOROuGHLY WHIPPED in every single phase of the game last night. We were out played, out coached, and out-hustled by a superior team. Their QB was better, their lines were better, their RBs were better, their WRs were better, their DBs were better, their coaches were better, their gameplan was better, their play calling was better, and their preparation was better, all by a sizable margin. We are not as good as advertised. They are very, very good. This was more than a bad game, just an utter failure on every level.

Do we give up . . . do we throw in the towel? Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no. Is our season over? Of course not - we can still have a great season. BUT...let's face it we've got a ways to go to be the elite team many of us thought we were.

It's pretty much over. Clemson and Georgia are back to being what they are, perennial historic also rans. This with pretty excellent QBs

Every coach in the SEC east not at Mizzou or Vandy or Tennessee should be out of a job this morning. There's really no argument for any of them. The SEC is horrible this season.

I'm pretty much done watching any sports at all this year and it's fucking October the bowls outside of maybe 3 games will be unwatchable.

Go Mizzou, Go Oregon. Go Jamis Winston

Bama is just a great we'll run organization I guess I could watch them too, but i wonder if there could be 4 or 5 undefeated teams at the end, I'm pulling for chaos now
