RE: 2007 got me thinking

It was a friendly dig at all of the SEC haters here and certainly not a scenario that I would want to happen. My dream scenario, before Ole Miss was exposed as a pretender, was TCU, Arizona State, Ole Miss and Mississippi State. That's not because of the SEC, but because I pull for Ole Miss, my son attends MSU, my brother and stepmother are TCU grads and another brother is an ASU season ticket holder. That will never happen and that's OK. I'd still rather the best teams get in regardless of conference.
But let me be clear. I like the SEC brand of football as a rule. I hated Auburn beating Alabama last year, not because I dislike Auburn because I don't. I just thought Alabama was the best team and felt they had a better chance against FSU in the title game. Yes, I wanted the SEC national title run to continue. Sue me. But don't mistake my preference for the SEC as disrespect for other programs around the nation. And never suppose to be able to project biases upon me that do not exist. I think Oregon may be the best team in the country. TCU and Baylor are both dangerous offenses. Ohio State may be one of the more complete teams in the nation. Just because I like the SEC doesn't mean I dislike everyone else. I'm a Texas fan by birth and over my 60 years I have picked up allegiances to schools in every part of the country, including the Big 10's Penn State. So keep acting like it is everyone else that is biased and you are the paragon of objectivity.
Oh I have my biases but I am fair with them. I realize you were just being tongue in cheek. What you joke about though, is how many Southern folks actually think so I took on the thought more so than I took on you Zombie.
