    Not true at all. Aggsy and Missouri aren't really SEC in that they don't have degree programs to hide the re athletes like Arkansas, LSU, Bama, Tennessee, KU, Ole Miss, Miss state, USC, and auburn. All those schools have general education degree programs that are used to keep their athletes eligible.

    You won't find a degree like that at USC, or Stanford, or UCLA, or Texas or aggsy, or Missouri or most of your Big 10 schools. There is no place to hide.

    Second, most schools know when they can and can't get a kid into school. This year, there was a linebacker named Scott, he committed early to the Aggsy, but he likely won't make it into school so most schools didn't try very hard to recruit him.

    Often Texas will not recruit a player if they feel they won't be able to keep him eligible, remember schools are now penalized for low graduation rates.
    The amount of stupidity in this post is astounding. I forgive you for your incompetence already. Oh, and LOL Big 12

    4th Most Academic Conference in Major College Football - SEC

    • Hampson Conference Intelligence (HCI) Score: 97.93
    • Number of Member Schools with Football Teams: 14
    • Average Academic Ranking of the Conference: 96.86
    • Median Academic Ranking of the Conference: 99

    Top 25 Schools: The SEC has one member ins ution ranked in the Top 25 academically: Vanderbilt (#17). 7.14% of SEC schools are ranked in the Top 25 academically, giving the conference the fourth highest percentage of Top 25 academic programs in major college football.
    Top 50 Schools: Two SEC schools rank in the Top 50 for academics. In addition to Vanderbilt, the SEC also hosts one school ranking between #26 and #50 in the nation for undergraduate education: University of Florida (#49). 14.28% of the schools in the SEC are ranked in the Top 50 for academics, the fourth highest percentage of any major football conference.
    Top 100 Schools: Seven SEC schools rank in the Top 100 of the USN&WR Best National Universities list. In addition to the two Top 50 schools listed above, the SEC also hosts five universities ranked between #51 and #100 for undergraduate education: University of Georgia (#60), Texas A&M (#69), University of Alabama (#86), Auburn (#91), and the University of Missouri (#97). With 50% of its schools ranked in the Top 100, the SEC is tied with the Pac-12 for third place in highest percentage of Top 100 schools.
    Sub-100 Schools: Half of the schools in the SEC fail to crack the Top 100 academically: University of Tennessee (#101), University of South Carolina (#112), University of Kentucky (#119), University of Arkansas (#128), Louisiana State University (#135), Mississippi State (#142), and Ole Miss (#150).
    5th Most Academic Conference in Major College Football - Big 12

    • Hampson Conference Intelligence (HCI) Score: 106.5
    • Number of Member Schools with Football Teams: 10
    • Average Academic Ranking of the Conference: 112
    • Median Academic Ranking of the Conference: 101

    Top 25 Schools: The Big 12 does not have a single school ranked in the Top 25 for academics. With 0% of its schools ranked in the Top 25, the Big 12 is tied with the American Athletic Conference for last place in percentage of Top 25 national universities.
    Top 50 Schools: The Big 12 does not have a single school ranked in the Top 50 for academics. With 0% of its schools ranked in the Top 50, the Big 12 is tied with the American Athletic Conference for last place in percentage of Top 50 national universities.
    Top 100 Schools: Three Big 12 schools rank in the Top 100 of the USN&WR Best National Universities list, all of them between #51 and #100: University of Texas - Austin (#52), Baylor (#75), and Texas Christian University (#82). With 30% of its member universities ranking in the Top 100 academically, the Big 12 is tied with the American Athletic Conference for last place in percentage of schools ranked in the Top 100 for academics.

    Sub 100 Schools: Seven of the Big 12's schools fail to crack the Top 100 academically: Iowa State (#101), University of Kansas (#101), University of Oklahoma (#101), Kansas State (#135), Oklahoma State (#142), Texas Tech (#161), and West Virginia (#170).
    btw, TCU, ranked (#82) doesn't count because they're not really a Big 12 school in that they don't have a degree program to hide the re athletes like Iowa State (#101), University of Kansas (#101), University of Oklahoma (#101), Kansas State (#135), Oklahoma State (#142), Texas Tech (#161), and West Viginia (#170) and the re athletes they wish they had but, could only dream of. if players are failing to make the grade in the Big 12, they are dumber than a box of rocks.

    The fact you are quoting UNaWR for school rankings tells me all I need to know about what you don't know about higher education. I guess you also think Altons is the authority on college football.

    second, your argument has nothing to do with what I said. SEC schools still have dumb degree programs to hide their athletes and I'm not talking about Vandy, they are well respected and still treat their athletes like students first. Pretty sure Florida and Georgia weren't on my list as well.

    Didn't Vince Young score a 6 (out of 50) on the Wonderlic? Isn't he illiterate? A guy whose kid works with the texas football program said that Ash is so stupid the doctors thought he was experiencing issues from his concussions - until they were informed he was that dumb before he got hit.

    Don't care if you believe me, but I'm not lying - and neither is the guy. Wait to see what Ash's Wonderlic results are.

    Alabama blew that game badly; no one expected that.

    I'm sure they'll be better than Johnny's. Not that JFF cares. He'll probably wipe his ass with the Wonderlic and then McCarron's girlfriend.

    Seriously?

    He scored an 18, 2 pts higher than Dan Morino, and he graduated from Texas with a real degree. Lol about Ash since he was a high school Academic All American and an early graduate

    beating rice, ekking out wins versus duke and iowa? none of those wins are impressive and the best team lost to mobilehoma.

    those dissing the SEC are foolish, but that said i wouldn't be blowing the SEC horn after this bowl season.
