I wish I had time to do this now. But put Fuente and Fosters heads over Ricky Bobby and Mr. Cal Naughton Jr

Cannot be worse than my BSU experience at FedEx in 2010.... We were not paying attention and were herded out of the stadium from a gate that we did not enter in. Husband said the lot was down this street. Walked down said street and did not recognize a thing. Realized the error so we started heading left. Opened Google Maps and realized that we were 2 miles away from our car. At 12:30am. With an 11 month old. The only comforting thing was that we were not the only lost fans who were herded the wrong way.

Your argument was that the SEC was weak because only the top two teams were any good, I just pointed out that a team that didn't finish in the top two in the SEC beat the national champs. It's week one, what are you going on if you are excluding last year from your reasoning? The fact that they lost to the #3 team in the country in a close game while not even being considered in the top 3 of their own conference? If anything you're providing your own counter argument. A nobody from the SEC took the #3 team in the country to the wire.

at no point did i say they look bad, i said the perception is changing, and overall i think that they're the best conference... but i think it's starting to move from "they're the SEC, they are head and shoulders better than everyone" to currently "the sec is the best conference, but the others are closing the gap". The record vs other P5 schools proves that. as for national titles, my view is that a)the bcs was a flawed system b) that doesn't necessarily speak to overall conference strength

i think it will be interesting to look back after the first 5-7 years of the playoffs (when there is more data) and see champions and number of teams selected for the playoffs (and i think it's possible the ACC gets two teams this year FWIW)

EDIT/in addition: I think there's an argument to be made for the SEC east being overrated (without having looked at specific numbers)

Yeah I know. That's why it doesn't make sense to me. This joke stems from a letter Mike London wrote to a recruit formerly inviting him to be a Cavalier. So the comment would make more sense if "formerly" were used incorrectly. It isn't. So I expressed my confusion.

I feel a sense of calm, zen-like, stoic, watchfulness as I wait for Saturday.

I won't lose my shit until our first BIG positive play of the game. Then...it will be time. But for now, I wait, and watch. Thanks for the hype vid.
