I see that you Okies have been placing bets on Oklahoma.

You'll see tomorrow how tough the SEC really is!

Like I said yesterday....I hope the camera doesn't show them poor Gator boys crying after OU crushes their dream tonight. Well ok....maybe I kinda do hope they show it.....lmao

Two words summ up what I am thinking right now

isn't it funny how they think OU is going to win???......when historically, they choked and lost the past 2 years to teams they thought were inferior......(Boise State and West Virginia)......and the funniest thing is they are going to actually play a team that has a defense!!!.....LOL!!!!.....Heisman don't mean nothing if you don't win!!!!....LOL!!!!...JK!!!!.....

Well, if you want to compare records...

OU Bowl Record: 24 wins, 16 losses, 1 tie (0.585)

Florida Bowl Record: 16 wins, 19 losses (0.457)

That means nothing! Too far back to be a meaningful comparison.


Look at what the SEC has done in recent years. Every year people say that the SEC team doesn't have a chance.

2003 LSU vs Oklahoma - LSU wins!
2006 Florida vs Ohio State - Florida wins!
2007 LSU vs Ohio State - LSU wins!

SEC was the underdog each time.

One day everyone will realize that the SEC is THE football conference!

Ok... well, how about Florida losing 6 out of the last 9 bowls they've played in. Is that more relevant?

Well, I've already put my virtual money where my mouth is, and we'll just have to await the outcome.

Yep, that is true, but look here:

Almost every SEC bowl game works out where the SEC team is the underdog.

Look at this year's Music City Bowl, we were big underdogs.

Or the Cotton Bowl. Big 12's #2 vs our #4.

And of course we won both of those!

[NorthofAda]

According to latest books Florida is not the underdog - so, we'll see. I think it's about time for that streak to be broken, dontcha think????

We shall see
And in the grand scheme of things They come and they go

Miama was the next big Dynasty
Then after that Florida State

It takes DECADES to make a Dynasty!!!

Talk to us in 50 years
lol

Don't forget Nebraska - remember them??? They were "the team" once upon a time. And the year my alma mater ASU took them down in a blowout was one of ASU's greatest games played.

Are you saying Big 12 has more football history than the SEC?

Conference All-Time Rankings

National Championships by Conference
# Big 12 – (16)

# SEC -- (15)

# Big Ten -- (13)

# ACC -- (9)

# Pac-10 -- (4)

# Big East -- (3)

For the purposes of this page, our list of football national championships by conference only counted the College Football National Champion as named by the Associated Press (AP) (1936 - 1997); and from 1998 on – the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) Champ.

So, for instance, the list above only includes 6 Alabama football national championships. Of course, as discussed at Best All-Time NCAA College Football Program, depending on which polls you count, Alabama could be credited with up to 12 college football national championships.

While I openly support the SEC, and always will, I feel torn in this instance, being a supporter particularly of the Cherokee Kid, Slingin' Sam. I think the two teams match up very well, this is the game I've been wanting to see for months, having watched both teams closely through the season. I look forward to a great game tonight, and while my heart lies with the SEC, my emotions hang with Oklahoma, I'd still like to see OU pull the win in a tight game, they are overdue.....but it won't kill me to see the SEC win the title, again.
