Message: [QUOTE="Plebe, post: 3333707, member: 6927"] I'll choose to ignore the ad hominem stuff and focus on the topic. I'm sorry, the SEC is not that strong after the top 3. For every TAMU and SC, there's also a Florida and Alabama (and Ole Miss, and ...). Suffice it to say it's no Pac-12. And even if it were, none of these rationalizations are an excuse for having 75% of the nonconference games against junior high-caliber teams. Right now I'm watching multiple MSU players being "guarded" by players that are a foot shorter. I suppose that's great for pumping up stats and giving the home fans a hoot and a holler, but it hardly prepares the team to play Stanford out on the Pacific coast. One would think Vic and his fans would've learned this lesson from what happened last year from getting schooled twice by Oregon. Not to mention it's a complete disservice to the sport. [/QUOTE]
