ESPN: SEC no longer the toughest conference


Jul 11, 2017, 11:23 PM

http://www.espn.com/college-football/insider/story/_/id/19804797/phil-steele-why-sec-was-dethroned-college-football-toughest-conference

I don't have Insider access, but would love to know who they picked over the SEC, even though I suspect it's the B1G when it should really be the ACC (as we all know.)

They have ACC as the number 1 conference it's a pretty good read. Ooc games count bowl wins count and amount of draft picks also deciding number. Acc came out as the #1 conference based off that article

Well, what do you know.. Wonder what the Coots will think of that! Don't have a FGF account, but if I did I'd be dying to post this there.

A large part of that in due to Clemson, Swinney, players, coaches & winning. CU, best is the standard for athletes, education and winning National Championships. It's no doubt the ACC was light years better in regular season play and bowl season last year. Clemson #1 Ranked D doesn't hurt their ratings either. Never been a conference homer, but it just goes to show where the talent is going and who is contending on a perennial basis. I see that they are finally paying attention.

Tons of talent going to Clemson and FSU - that is obvious. Think the biggest difference between the ACC vs SEC right now is better Coaching & QB play in the ACC.

someone posted something he said yesterday where supposedly one of the first times he met Dabo. Coach had said he didnt want a great team he wanted a great program. He seems to be doing just that

Surprised that they actually admitted this though it was pretty obvious by the end of the season.

So we have conference pride now after years of bashing it?

No one said that.. Simply stating that the facts in the article where ACC is above SEC and where the rankings are and should be.

Now you know why it's behind a pay wall

So that fewer people will read ESPN admit it.
