The New Big XII vs The SEC

    Really? Why not? Other than to avoid their obnoxious fans I can't think of a reason I'd rather be in the BIg12 over the SEC

    Arrogance and the fact that we aren't wanted. I'd rather face them than be apart of them.

  • To each their own. I'd much rather be in a conference that made more geographical sense, not to mention that I think the SEC will be worth more when all this T.V. stuff is done. That being said any of the perceived big conferences would be better than the ACC at this point.

  • Hey Gator,
    If the Noles are so bad that we cannot even win our conference why does the SEC not want us there? Wouldn't it just be an easy win for you guys and since we are respected nationally it would help you all to get to another SEC title and NC? Or is it because the writing is on the wall and you all know that we are going to be one of the few teams that have the talent to beat anyone anywhere? Personally I would like to be in the SEC and for the life of me I have no idea why the Big 12 would want a beast like FSU on their schedules regularly. If a Bama fan came here I can respect that, same with LSU and UGA. But the Gators are just plain scared that they are in year 2 of a 6 plus year losing streak.

    I don't think it will be a significant difference, if there even is one.

  • Can't say I agree but here's hoping.

  • Oh man, am I getting killed over on GatorBait. This was supposed to be a spoof (you know, a joke), but apparently they can’t figure that one out.

    I came up with this idea for a post in about 5 minutes right before I went to bed last night, after reading on various 247 forums that the Twitter world was blowing up that FSU is going to the Big XII. I wanted to start out with football talk (the matchups, etc.) then move on to stupid but what I thought hilarious tangents. So I thought it would be funny to poke fun at both conferences, hell even us Nole fans, to prove irrelevant points on how the Big XII is better than the SEC.

    Did anyone else on this forum think for one second of what I was saying to be serious in tone?

    Weak argument. We play you annually regardless of your cenference. We have as many titles in the last 6 years as Bama so we deserve as much respect. Yes, you guys have been doing well for yourselves. But I would also state that FSU has been underachieving and I think most of you would agree, right? So don't get too carried away..we were dominant for a while and you were down. Now, we are rebuilding while you guys have been I winning (although not enough according to your fanbase). Don't even start with UF being "scared" when we play you annually...that's a joke.
