The point is that USC has not played that many games against the SEC in the last ten years [read four games against two teams] and they have not played the likes of LSU, Florida, or Georgia.

The Southeastern Conference had 263 players on the 2007 National Football League opening day active rosters, which led all conferences. The Atlantic Coast Conference was second with 238 players, followed by the Big Ten with 234 players, Pac-10 with 183 players, Big 12 with 176 players and the Big East with 84 players.

USC is clearly the class of the PAC-10. But if you stack conference against conference, the the SEC is clearly the top conference from top to bottom.

“But if you stack conference against conference, the the SEC is clearly the top conference from top to bottom.”

That may be true, but that doesn’t mean they have the best team. :-)

It isn’t like Auburn in ‘02 and ‘03 (9-4) and (8-5) respectively or Arkansas in ‘06 (10-4) weren’t the upper echelon of the SEC. I mean, come on, the games with USC weren’t even close!

Would you like me to compare the SC scores with the scores Auburn and Arkansas had with LSU, Florida, and Georgia those years? Are you really that much of a glutton for punishment?
