I get what you're saying -- everyone's entitled to state & defend their opinon. And -- for their record -- having a different opinion doesn't mean that either pary is right/wrong.

Is that what you call "Busting Loose"? Seriously!?! Saying that the south has racism is your form of "busting loose"!?!? Dude, get over it. By the way, quit saying that you don't mean to offend and that you're not attacking SEC fans! Of course you are and that's OK, but atleast do with some backbone! If you're going to make completely predictable and tired comments then I suggest not coming across as such a whiney victim.

By the way I just want to "bust loose" and say that Oklahoma is boring! Damn...chew on that!

Hey Kevin, I can value someone's opinion BUT these SEC fans on here are really trying their best to make us want to believe the SEC is the best. I know when I don't agree with them they attack. I could care less what they think about Oklahoma let alone the Big 12. They fail to realize the websites they mention can be bais. Sport announcers can be bais. Did any of them watch the NBA Finals. None of the announcers were not affiliated with the Los Angeles Lakers BUT see how they "kissed' up to them and bragged about them being 18-2 after they got Paul Gasol. Game 6 the announcers quickly switched sides to the Boston Celtics. So I do have love for all of on here BUT that does not mean i have to agree with them and they don't have to agree with me!

Hey TampaGator...I have nothing against these people on here! I just stated my opinion on why I don't think the SEC is all that great. The way they hire coaches is a part of College Football! I don't drink alcohol!

I can say this about your post as well. You can try to pass this junk off to someone else BUT not me. You probably didn't read my comments all the way because I did not say half the junk you just posted. I never stated a certain school or people were racist. I questioned the hiring and handling of African American Coaches and their history of dealing with African American players in the past. The confedate flag is a symbol of racism no matter how people like you try to reason with other that it is not. I am aware that racism exist in all types of people and not limited to one. The Civil War was about slavery...what was it about...unity? If you gonna step to me then you better come correct or don't come at ALL!

Shiguy, why you are trying to reason with this man? He brags about how many NFL players are from the SEC BUT if any one of those players get arrested then it's no reflection on the school. If you are going to mention the school when the players get drafted and does well in the NFL then mention it when the players does bad!

I've gotta say that comment lacked any semblance of logic. You have now qualified all things racist as having to be present at KKK rallies. I guess the Holocaust is now excused.

The Confederate flag was NOT a symbol of racism. It has been used by some racist groups, just as the symbol for Black Power has, as well as many others. Because some have chosen to use it as a symbol of racism doesn't qualify the symbol itself or those who choose to display it to be entirely racist. The Confederate flag was symbolic of the states that it represented. In turn, it was used as the identifying banner of the south in the Civil War. President Lincoln was clever to make people believe that the Civil War was about slavery, although it never was. It was quite ingenious because he was able to gain so much support for the war efforts, but it was never accurate.

I am not a supporter of the SEC at all. However, I do not find it appropriate or even in the least bit relevant that you are trying to degrade the conference as a whole just because some schools choose to show tribute to their heritage. I am sure that these institutions of higher learning know the difference, and are well aware of what they are doing. All of the member schools of the SEC have many races that make up their student bodies, as well as their athletic teams. To refer to one of these institutions as racist is asinine and absurd.

There are many ways far more relevant to attack the SEC. Please choose one, and I might even jump on board with you.

I don't know you so I don't know BUT if you say it does then who am I to argue?

We haven't ever had the Conferderate emblem on the flag. Actually the South Carolina flag hasn't really changed at all.

and nobody here is buying yours that the SEC is the god conference. NFL recruitment in no way reflects football talent. it is reflected in multiple aspects especially gameplay. the dirty south is notorious for taking the faster players and putting them on defense rather than offense. aka NOT spread offenses. now i know there are still teams that run the spread in the SEC (LSU) but it is not run nearly in the fashion that it is in other conferences (B10, Big East, Pac10). that being said everyone knows that the spread is not favorable for the NFL in the fashion it's run in college due to risk to players. therefore if your teams arn't running a hardcore spread they are going to be more favorable for the NFL than teams that are strait spread since the NFL will be looking for large passing game players and fast defenses. and THAT is why NFL recruitment does not reflect the talent level of a conference in anyway.

Hey OU Ron this is fun! I am not trying to cause problems I was just tired of these SEC fans on here trying to convince ME how the SEC is the BEST! I held back for so long but I now have to let it bust loose. I am not at all trying to say they don't have a right to feel that BUT why is it important for them to try to convince me? If they think Oklahoma is the worst thing to happen for college football then it's their opinion and I will leave it at that. They post threads and websites trying their best to convinse us! Gee, they must not have anything positive going on in their lives and have to rely on thinking the SEC is good to feel good about themselves!

Good facts but there is no use in continuing to argue for SEC supremacy
