Bolt Wait, wut? ESPN: It's clear: SEC no longer exceptional

But let's be honest. You're not what you have been. You're not all that. You're not even all that good. And now that the season is concluding, and we can step back and gain the perspective that we lose in the Saturday-to-Saturday frenzy of the regular season, maybe we can figure out how the rest of us got hornswoggled into thinking you hadn't lost a step.

You don't understand? Let me lay it out for you.

For the first time in four seasons, the SEC won't have four 11-win teams. It very easily could have only one. Alabama is 11-1. Missouri and Mississippi State are 10-2.

The best running backs in the FBS play in the Big Ten. The best quarterbacks are in the Pac-12. So are the best defensive linemen. The ACC skunked you 4-0 this past Saturday. The Big 12 is the only conference with a chance of putting two teams in the playoff.

okay.. just making sure that we can trust the validity of this particular article when we question the validity of all other ESPN articles.

Why can't I agree and disagree with specific things?! It's not always black and white. Aw shit... Here we go. Black and white.

Always sad to see someone get fired. Best of luck going forward, Ivan Maisel.

And as has been said, Bama has a great shot to win the NC, then everyone else in the SEC is forgotten and the narrative is about the SEC winning 8 of the last 9 national titles. Fortunately, they aren't a lock. I'd give the nod to Oregon over Bama if I had to pick, but think Bama would beat TCU, FSU, OSU, Baylor, or anyone else that got in there. Not that Bama is so good, but there's just not any really great teams this year.

okay...

so, when ESPN says something that benefits us - Michigan State - the greatest institution known to man.. the institution that others aspire to be.. they're okay.

and when ESPN says something that our sensitive and insecure selves perceive to be disrespectful to us - Michigan State - the greatest institution known to man.. the institution that others aspire to be.. they're the devil.

will that work?

sounds like fun.. I prefer getting "he's a great guy to have a beer with" recommendations from someone who has never met me and knows nothing about me..
