LOL! The tear-filled cry from fans of every other conference since the playoff system began in 1998......"Our Conference is better than the weak SEC"
Since the college football playoff system began 24 years ago the SEC has had six different schools win the national championship a total of 14 times. The number 2 conference you say? The ACC with 3 schools winning 5 national championships. Tied for number 3? The Big 10 with one school....that's right one school....winning a nation championship twice and the Big 12 with two schools winning one national championship each. Tied for last Pac 12 with one win. That's right the ACC, which has 9 fewer nation championships in the play-off era than the SEC, has won as many national championships as the Big 10/Big 12/Pac 12 combined.
In the 24 year playoff era how many times has a Big 10, Big 12 or Pac 12 team beat a SEC team in the national championship......NEVER, not once, not a single time. They have had 7 chances, just never won. The ACC is the only conference with wins over the SEC in a national championship game in the last 24 years with three.
For the life of me I don't know why these great teams from underrated big & pac 10 & 12 conferences don't defect to the weak, over-rated SEC and get in on some of this two-decade playoff era national championship dominance. They might even get lucky enough to play another recent defector and finally be assured a win over a SEC team in a national championship.
