Going back to World War 2 (68 years now), the SEC has 1 streak of 11 straight years without a title(81-91), 1 streak of 7 years without a title, and then no other streaks of more than 4 years.
So, for 50 out of 68 years, they've won one every 4 years or more frequently. 24 titles in 68 years. Basically 1 every 3 years on average. The SEC winning title's isn't a recent phenomenon.
I'd take that bet.

For the first time in history they have to actually earn it. Of course, the ESPN bullshit hype machine will make sure 2 SEC teams make it into the playoff next year.

This narrative is hilarious. The B10 was espns baby for the entirety of its existence. The SEC was also the #1 proponent of a playoff and a major reason it actually exists now.

Not sure what any of that has to do with ESPN paying billions for the SEC TV rights. But keep trying to convince all non-SEC homers that there isn't a ridiculous bias.

I was referring to the pre-BCS era, but there are certainly some BCS years the SEC didn't have to earn it (Bama v. LSU; Bama v. ND)

Just so we are clear, then, you think that the SEC did earn its reputation as the baddest motherfuckers on the planet during the BCS era?
Sweatervest was at the game. His getting into the HOF was much deserved, but sadface:

I think #4 is a bit optimistic for USC for 2015 as instead of 50 scholarship players we'll now have just 62 or 63, we won't have a full 85 until 2017 at the earliest. I don't care about any bias as the SEC has our sanctions and Carroll blowing 1 stupid game a year to thank more than anything else in my mind but we're on the way back. Suck it bitches.

Notre Dame bias is 10x worse than any SEC or any other school bias. Holy crap is it ridiculous. That ESPN preseason projection had Notre Dame at #12 after going 7-5 this year. That's ahead of every SEC school but like 2(Georgia and Bama). There no chance that at least 4-5 SEC schools dont finish ranked higher than Notre Dame. ND is a shitshow and it'll remain a shitshow. The only limited success they've had in recent years has been due to being able to custom-build 100% of their own schedule. That's why they're so resistant to join a conference, they wouldn't have that MASSIVE advantage over everyone else anymore.
Look, Notre Dame is decent. They should be bowl-eligible every year, but they aren't an elite-level team anymore. Put Army, Air Force, Purdue, and Wake Forrest on anyone else's schedule every single year in the name of "rivalries" and see how hard it is for most teams to get to 9 or 10 wins.
Yet here we are, every year, Notre Dame ranked in, or real near, the top 10. They've been a top 10 team once in the past 2 decades. They've only had less than 3 losses once in the past 20 years, even with that pud schedule.
