College Football: Will the SEC "6 Peat"

more


15. Ohio State is named after a tree, the buckeye. Consider almost every other nickname - it is something to be feared, not something to be urinated on. Contrary to what some idiotic Buckeye fans will claim, the buckeye nut is not poisonous.

16. John Cooper's decision to run up the score on Penn State in 2000, which led to Adam Taliaferro becoming paralyzed. Had Cooper eschewed the meaningless score at the end of a 38-6 game, the Buckeyes would have certainly run the ball instead of pass with less than two minutes remaining. Rather than take a knee AFTER Taliaferro was paralyzed, Cooper decided to score a touchdown. In a shameful display lacking any perspective whatsoever, Cooper grinned when Ohio State scored. Buckeye fans applauded this decision for the most part.

17. In another classless display, Ohio State players ripped down the Michigan "Go Blue" banner before the Michigan / Ohio State game in 1973. Perhaps Ohio State can be proud in its role as the muse to thug programs like Miami stomping on opponents' logos at midfield.

18. Maurice Clarett is not hated for his wrongdoings at Ohio State, but for the fact that he exposed Ohio State as a dirty program.

19. Robert Reynolds, whose violent choking of Jim Sorgi was overlooked at Ohio State, has continued the Buckeye tradition of thuggery by getting domestic abuse charges.

20. Ohio State's stadium is named after the footwear of a horse. Since Ohio Stadium has the ends of the horseshoe pointing down, it has to be considered bad luck.

21. Not only are Ohio State's graduation rates poor, but the difference in graduation rates between black and white student athletes raises questions. The 4 class average graduation rates as of 1999-2000 for white football players was 71%, but a mere 30% for Ohio State's black football players. This is pathetic and shameful.

22. Ohio State claims its band is "The Best Damn Band in the Land." For some reaons, Buckeyes believe that repeating lies makes it true.

23. The Dead Schembechlers, an Ohio punk band that dresses up like the violent Woody Hayes, showed a lack of integrity by changing their name to the Bastard Sons of Woody. And before anyone says this was done to respect the passing of Schembechler, note that Woody Hayes is dead too.
 






number 14 on this list is on the website and is a hilarious video of linus rapping about ohio.

25. Ohio State loves to claim many more national championships than they deserve:
a.) In 2002, Ohio State's claim to a national championship depends on a questionable interference penalty required to beat Miami,
b.) In 1968, Ohio State was not the only undefeated team. An undefeated Penn State, featuring Hall of Famers Franco Harris and Jack Ham, has as much a claim as Ohio State does.
c.) In 1961, Ohio State for some reason thinks their team with a tie is better than undefeated Alabama. Alabama was the AP's choice.
d.) In 1957, one-loss Ohio State for some reason thinks their team is better than undefeated Auburn, the AP's selection.
e.) In 1954, Ohio State was not the only undefeated team. UCLA was also undefeated, and is as deserving as Ohio State was.
f.) In 1944, Ohio State was undefeated, but so was Army. Army was loaded during WWII, and also won the AP poll. Army outscored their opponents 504-35, including beating 8-2 Notre Dame 59-0. Ohio State struggled to beat 8-2 Michigan 18-14.
g.) In 1942, one-loss Ohio State lost to Wisconsin, who also had one loss. Georgia was another one-loss team that has as legitimate a claim to the national championship as Ohio State does.
Ohio State repeating incessantly that they have 7 national championships does not make it true. Repeating a lie does not change it to truth.

SEC does it again...Through the first three rounds of the NFL draft, 16 players from the SEC were taken, from Alabama running back Richardson (third overall to the Cleveland Browns) to Arkansas defensive end Jake Bequette, who went 90th to New England.

persistant lil bASTARD but there is no denying the reality of 0-11 vs SEC which makes the SEC your daddy. Your baselines are way off. you count things like spring game and signing day to state your case while the SEC counts national titles and bowl wins. Your a ring tail dufus.

The SEC had 42 selections in the 2012 NFL Draft. The number led the nation for the sixth straight year.

All 12 SEC teams had a player selected in the draft. The SEC is the only conference to have had a player selected from every one of its teams. (SEC by team total: Alabama 8, Georgia 7, South Carolina 6, LSU 5, Arkansas 4, Miss. State 3, Florida 2, Kentucky 2, Vanderbilt 2, Auburn 1, Ole Miss 1, Tennessee 1)

The 42 selections bring the SEC’s total to 279 during the last seven NFL Drafts, an average of 39.8 per year. The SEC by year since 2006: 37 picks (2006); 41 (2007); 35 (2008); 37 (2009); 49 (2010); 38 (2011); 42 (2012).

Since 2006, the SEC has had 55 first-round selections, an average of 7.86 per year.

Alabama led the nation in total draft selections with 8, followed by Georgia and Oklahoma with 7 each. Seven teams had 6 selections each including South Carolina, California, Miami (Fla.), Michigan State, Iowa, Wisconsin and Boise State.

Since 2006, the SEC has had 55 first-round selections, an average of 7.86 per year.
 






The 42 total during that span for the SEC is second to the 2010 total of 49.

It is the 6th year in a row and 8th in the last 10 years that the SEC has had multiple selections in the top 7 of the NFL Draft.

In last 6 NFL Drafts’ top six picks (36 selections total), the SEC has had 15 total selections.

The SEC has had a top three pick in the NFL Draft in 10 of the last 15 seasons.

Second year in a row that the SEC has had six of the first 14 selections in the NFL Draft.

Second year in a row that the SEC has had six of the first 14 selections in the NFL Draft.

In last 6 NFL Drafts’ top 15 picks (90 selections total), the SEC has had 29 total selections.

The SEC record for most players taken in the first round was 11, set in 2007. The nine, tonight, is third highest, also behind last season’s 10.

During the last six NFL Drafts, the SEC has had 51 players taken in the first round, an average of 8.5 per season.

In the last five NFL Drafts (2008-12), 10 of the 12 SEC teams have had players drafted – a total of 30 players overall.

The SEC will Seven Peat
 












I couldn't have said it better myself:

This is from an article "How do we know the SEC is so good?" Check the NFL draft board


Each year there are some fans around the country — many living in Big Ten or Big 12 country — who suggest the SEC is overrated. In their view, just because a league won a national crown last year… that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the best league this year.

Shoot, just because a conference has won six titles back to back to back to back to back to back… that doesn’t mean it’ll be the best conference the next year, either. At least that’s their story as it’s not their favorite team’s conference that’s won six BCS championships in a row.

Well, for the Doubting Thomases out there from Ann Arbor to Dallas we humbly submit the first round of last night’s NFL draft as further proof that the Southeastern Conference — love it or hate it — does indeed play the best college football in the nation each season. The SEC has the best players.

As we showed you yesterday, the SEC has had more players drafted into the NFL each and every spring from 2007 through 2011. And it’s won shiny, crystal footballs at the end of those seasons to boot, besting teams from the Big Ten and Big 12 twice each for good measure. So you have two pretty significant sets of evidence there. On-field results. Talent out the proverbial wazoo.

That proved to be the case yet again last evening. Ten players from Mike Slive’s league were picked among the 32 selected in last night’s first round. Basically one-third of 32 best players in America toiled at what were SEC stadiums last year or will be SEC stadiums this year (counting ex-Texas A&M quarterback Ryan Tannehill).

Even more impressive was the fact that nine of the first 18 names called were those of men from the SEC. Nine of the top eighteen. Think about that for a second, SEC-haters. Hell, think about that for a second, SEC-lovers.

Wonder why teams in the Southeastern Conference beat each other up and still get love from computers and poll voters? There’s Clue #1 for ya. Playing in the SEC is the closest one can get to playing in the NFL — insert snarky pay-for-play comment here — without yet being in the NFL.
 






continued...

Even without Tannehill counted as an SEC player — and we did that to show that the SEC is going to be even tougher to win in coming years with Missouri and A&M added to the mix — the conference still nearly doubled its nearest rival league in terms of top o’ the line pro talent.

The best players in the country play in the SEC. There should be no argument, then, that the best football is played in the SEC as a result. Sure, one season the best team in the country might come from another league. That’s why traditional powers like Texas, Florida State, Ohio State, Oklahoma and relative newcomer Oregon have been thrown up against the SEC over the last 14 BCS seasons. None has ever won that last game against an SEC team, though. In fact, if you want to see the SEC lose a title game, the best way to insure that is to put it up against another SEC team. That’s what happened last year as LSU became the first-ever league team to lose a BCS Championship Game… falling to league rival Alabama.

Not surprisingly, those two teams dominated last night’s first round as well.

Alabama had four players selected. LSU had two. That’s six first-round picks straight from last year’s BCS title game (not to mention all the future first-rounders who remain at those schools for the moment).

South Carolina had two players selected as well. Mississippi State had a first-rounder, marking the first time since 1982 and 1983 that State has had first-round picks in back to back years. Then toss in SEC newcomer A&M to reach 10 picks overall for football’s King of Conferences.

This type of post is not meant to be viewed as gloating. If the SEC had had three players selected you can be sure we’d be discussing what’s gone wrong with the league’s talent pool. No, instead this little blurb is put forth to further undermine the sourpuss argument spoken by those who’ve grown tired of hearing “SEC this” and “SEC that” each fall.

From the BCS computers to the people voting in the national polls to the scouts, GMs and coaches of the National Football League… everyone’s clearly aware that the best players and the best football are played Down South.

It’s a fact. Accept it. Oh, and there’s little sign of that fact changing anytime soon, either.
 






This was an interesting set of stats. Just a few comments: Look at the "Saban Effect" at LSU. And what Lou Holtz and then Spurrier did to USC. Arkansas made a nice jump after a rough entrance into the SEC 20 years ago and I think you can say there was a "Richt Effect" at UGA as well. The "Florida Effect" seems to always be there for NFL talent. Miss St enjoyed great times in the 90's but have taken been hurt by the above "Effects" it appears. Tennessee is clearly on a downswing with this data but that could be seen as a "Kiffen/Dooley/Firing Fulmer/Majors is Gone Effect" I think you will see an "SEC Effect" increase the numbers in the years to come for A&M and Mizzou.

stuck a nerve huh reppo trunkie. 3 posts in a row.
bucks rule. 2013 on. pop dat trunk and get it loaded with pizza. u have a long week. all i have to do is lift, tan, shave and hit clubs at nite. now you pop it up son.

The SEC owns ohio and we live in your head all day long. That is why you keep coming back to an SEC THREAD about 6Peats (now 7Peats). It's great to remind you about ohio being a losing program at 6-7, never having beaten and SEC team in the post season, on a 5 game losing streak and how dominant the SEC is as the best football conference in the country where the best football is played on Saturdays in the Fall.
