The SEC West teams alone have won 9 of the past 15 National Championships and 3 of the last 4 titles included. Scheduling cream puffs is a necessity when you have that brutal SEC schedule.
I have never understood the whole weird debating over level of cream puff.
Ohio State, Penn State, Wisconsin and Michigan pad their stats by playing Miami of Ohio, Akron, Central Michigan or Kent State
but yall get mad because Georgia plays Murry State ? or Alabama plays Western Carolina?????
The first group is a division above the second group. The teams that you named as playing Big Ten teams are in the Mid American Conference, a Group of Five league. Western Carolina and Murray State are FCS teams, and not even good ones. Big difference. They take the game for the paycheck, and the school gets an out-of-conference opponent who won't require a return game. I am a Florida alumnus, and it drives me nuts that the Gators keep scheduling FCS opponents.

While you're at it, tell the Gators to leave the state of Florida for a non-conference game. Not a neutral site game, a true road game. Do you know when the last time they played a true road non-conference game outside the state?

There is no big difference
2019
Ohio State 76 - Miami of Ohio 5
Penn State 79 - Idaho 7
Wisconsin 61 - Central Michigan 0
You purposefully left off my last line because it destroys the attempted point you have
Quote:
winning by 30 or winning by 40, its still a win you knew you would have. its just a bad argument
you are arguing for brownie points and pretending they are actual accomplishments. As I said, its a win those teams knew they would get.
LSU lost, & MS State barely squeaked by a non-ranked team. AL is dominant, but besides AL, the rest of the SEC West failed to impress in week #1.
AL & Texas A&M are strong, but we'll have to see what the rest of the SEC West can bring.
Orgeron is a Cajun Gene Chizik. After a spectacular 2019 season with a fantastic quarterback, he's reverting to the mean.
Mississippi State is Mississippi State.
Alabama looked impressive, but Miami has been coasting on their brand name for a long, long time.
The team I'm most curious about is Auburn. Yeah, they were playing Akron, so I don't want to read too much into their drubbing. But they played without the usual opening game yips you always saw with Malzahn. I guess the game with Penn State in two weeks will tell us a great deal.

I think the SEC East is closing in on the West, ever so slowly. KY upsetting FLA could be good or it coul be bad for the SEC EAst...dpends on how they do the rest ofthe way. The SEC East needs more than just UGA & FLA though to be favorably compared to the SEC West, who always has 3 teams deep, & sometimes 4.
I do see the gap narrowing a bit, if KY is for real, and the FLA win wasn't a lark.
