The SEC is the best conference overall but does not have the best team in the nation. While I am a Razorback fan and think they are as good as almost anybody I still think Ohio State is the best in the country and #2 could be one of about five teams including UofA and Fla. Auburn was the team the national media was focussed on and when it fell the conference status fell with it.
ND's schedule year in an year out is as tough as any one's. It may play the service academies (as a favor to them) but also routinely plays the best from the rest of the conferences. They could easily beat USC and be in the title game without it being an injustice.
Razorbacks all the way.
See y'all in Atlanta. I remember the last time we met in the title game. Unfortunately for you guys Madre Hill was hurt, which limited UA's chances in that one, I suspect this time will be much closer.
I agree that Ohio is the best at this point but to say the least number 2 is a huge question.
THis rematch stuff which I hope fades away this week is what is maddening to me. ITs like the fix is already in.
